Yes. Priceline does not cover every city in Europe.

Unfortunately Priceline do not have hotels in Biarritz.

My husband and I both have priceline accounts, that way we can get around the one bid in 24 rule.

It is worth registering more than one card and altering the name by adding an extra initial.

Depends on which city and how many free rebids you actually have.

You don't lose by having different accounts

Where ?

When ?

We're after going to Clearwater Beach, Florida from the 26th - 30th September of this year. By the looks of things it seems like we're likely to get either the Hilton Clearwater Beach or the Marriot Suites on Sand Key, which would be perfectly fine with me, they look like great hotels!

Trying to find any other hotels that are possibles though, finding it pretty tricky even with looking at all the helper website

Thanks Blindman!

Anyone know whether Pricelines 5 star Amsterdam is still the Grand Hotel K, looking to book 18 - 21 Sept.

Many thanks

No way to tell really.

You could do a dummy booking on Hotwire to see what comes up. Use the guide to determine the likely hotels.
This may help in seeing which hotels are giving inventory away.
Though just because the hotel comes up on hotwire is no guarantee it will be on
Priceline.

I see you have posted on betterbidding, thereuare should be able to help.

Good luck

I'm trying to get a hotel in Manchester city centre for 12th Nov for one night 4* (there isn't any higher on priceline) but not having much luck. Have bid £60 but not getting anywhere (is this far too low?).
