Blamar Posted January 10, 2009 #451 Share Posted January 10, 2009 We got the CP LA Harbour for three nights last week of Feb for $70. It appears to be a reasonable deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjl513 Posted January 12, 2009 #462 Share Posted January 12, 2009 please tell me how you did it and how did you know it was the Crowne Plaza San Pedro. Step by step help would be nice if anyone is out there help me!!!! You go to priceline.com, chose the hotel tab, Long Beach area, then you pick San Pedro, 3.5 stars, name your price, and hope you get it! I bid $60 the day before, didn't get it, then bid $65 last night and got it! There is a 24 hour wait period before you can try again. You can not choose the Crowne Plaza, but it appears to be the one everyone is getting right now. The other hotel at the 3.5 level is the Double Tree - which is also a good choice from what I read on the boards. I've been to neither hotel. Good Luck!

nowornever Posted January 13, 2009 #463 Share Posted January 13, 2009 as I should have been but thanks to all you wonderful people, did get the Doubletree for $72. Waited until the last minute so didn't want to take a lot of chances. First time on Priceline & I was sort of nervous:rolleyes:. Worked out well & I'd really like to thank you all for the great tips. Feel so much better about getting to LA the day before cruise since our NW weather has been so iffy-scared to chance the day of..... Cheaper to get a new Alaska air ticket than do a flight deviason. Sounds like we'll be able to get to Von's or Costco to stock up on wine as a big bonus & won't need to worry about carrying in suitcase. Joy. Thanks again for help.

That's a great price! Hopefully, I'll be able to get close to that for a date in later April. Thanks for the heads up! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

becca23 Posted January 16, 2009 #472 Share Posted January 16, 2009 1/27 in advance of the Oceania Regatta.... have you stayed there ? Are you on that cruise? No I haven't stayed there. I looking for a pre-cruise ( 4/19 sailing of the Mariner of the Seas ) hotel near the pier. You have a great price and I think you will enjoy the Hotel. You should be able to see your ship arriving from the hotel. The hotel staff will know the best location to watch. Enjoy your stay and cruise. Let us know how it all works out.

Becca, the Long Beach Grand Prix is that weekend, so no luck with Priceline at all and the CP is fully booked, as are most of the hotels in Long Beach. I have reservations at the Doubletree as backup, but still looking for something more reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
