loug1601 Posted December 11, 2006 #1 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I thought I was bidding on the Interconental in Downtown Miami. I received the Miami Hyatt Regency! :( I though if you punched in a 4 star hotel in Miami that the Intercontinental was the only hotel that would come up for bidding. Oh well, for $81.00 per night, pre tax, and $99.70 including taxes and fees, I will have to deal with it. Hubby is going to be upset! So....How is the Hyatt Regency? :confused: We will be there for a 1 night pre-cruise stay arriving on 09/14/07. Should I just bite the bullet, chalk this up to a loss, and book "normally" at the Intercontinental? HELP! Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harry0 Posted December 11, 2006 #2 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Hyatt is a nice place. Just a farther walk to Bayside. You are not ever guaranteed a certain hotel on priceline. You need to research more on the biddingfortravel site before bidding again. I would stay with the Hyatt. Harry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Coral Posted December 11, 2006 #3 Share Posted December 11, 2006 There are 2 hotels in the category for 4 star for Priceline - so this definitely was a possibility. A long time time, Intercontinental was 5 star which made it easier but now you are more likely to get the Hyatt on Priceline over the Intercontinental. This is what is keeping me from bidding for my January trip. Next time look at http://biddingfortravel.com You can see what hotels are in a category and what hotels have been won recently.

dmk Posted December 11, 2006 #4 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Next time look at http://biddingfortravel.com You can see what hotels are in a category and what hotels have been won recently. It is so important to read everything on Bidding For Travel. Once you get the hang of it, you will be more likely not to have any disaapointments. I have stayed at the Hyatt and found it a good hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signman Posted December 11, 2006 #5 Share Posted December 11, 2006 You will be fine at the Hyatt, but you bid way too soon. September in Miami, low low low season. Hope your research is better next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachfanatic Posted December 12, 2006 #6 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I've stayed at the Hyatt many times and it is a very nice hotel and not very far from the Bayside. The Rooms are very nice, see if you can get an end room, they are larger than regular rooms. The pool area is small but quite adequate for a pre-cruise night. The breakfast buffet is expensive but very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkly Posted December 12, 2006 #7 Share Posted December 12, 2006 The Hyatt Regency is a great place! We stayed there pre cruise for 3 nights last Christmas. The staff were so very nice and we had a great time in the bar on Christmas eve! The rooms have balconies and you can see the ships. I would stay there anytime. BTW we won it on Priceline also!
