Default I love priceline.com

Just booked a 3 star hotel in downtown Vancouver for $50 for October 22nd. Any other good discount hotel websites out there?

www.hotwire.com is good, but you can usually get better deals bidding on priceline.

Do your research here: www.betterbidding.com

Your girlfriend doesn't stay in three star hotels.

How long is the turn around time before you know if you have won the price? and when do they tell you which hotel it is?

I love corporate discounts - just quote my company and I stay at the 4 Seasons Downtown Van for $120/night.

I tell 'em I'm a priest, ask for the clerical discount, and THEN enquire how many channels of porn are available.

They tell you as soon as you have won the bid what hotel it is. It's immediate. Sometimes if you are close, they'll tell you to add an extra $20 or something to get it.

I do all my research on www.biddingfortravel.com. It tells you what hotels you can expect to get and for what price. Did my research there for NYC, so I basically knew what hotel I was getting and for what price. I'd definately use it again.
