Has anyone used Priceline.com for a hotel in London ?
 

I have never been to London, traveling solo. I have never had such a difficult time picking a hotel, I have searched endless hours for a hotel that gets good consistant reviews, but nothing is standing out, calling my name, stay here, stay here ! I would like to stay in a nice hotel in a great location, nearby shopping, cafes & see the sites. My price range is $200 (US). Has anyone used Priceline.com to get a great 5 star hotel for a reasonable price ? Should I would be willing to take a chance with priceline and leave the picking to them as long as the hotel is great, at a great price ????

Gretchen, the site www.biddingfortravel.com has info on the London hotels that are frequently used on PL.

I got the Roland Gardens serviced apts for $140. in July, they listed it for 4 stars, I'll let you know when I return, July 28th! By the way, anyone know ANYTHING about it, in south Kensington?

I just got back from a week trip to London I got on priceline.com. We had no problems stayed at the Radisson Edwardian Vanderbuilt we were happy with the room it was large with a balcony it had 12 ft ceilings. Nothing worn or dirty. The staff was great.<BR>

Lisa, If I may ask, what was the rate for your hotel?

I got the Copthorne Tara Kensington in London for $100 per night in mid September on Priceline.com.

Hi Gretchen, we stayed at the Thistle Caring Cross for 105$ a night through Priceline... great hotel, in a fab location. We bid on a 4 star in Mayfair/Covent Garden area. I don't think you can go wrong bidding this area! FYI, Judy

Sure,<BR>I bought a package from priceline I got the airfare and hotel for a week for 1700. I asked for a bill and they gave me pricelines bill. It was 390 pounds for the week.
