Priceline hotel for the San Diego Tour
Holiday Inn La Mesa - 3* $42
As Priceline shoppers know, hotel prices have crept up a bit this year. Finding a nice hotel away from Hotel Circle in the $40 range proved a bit more challenging than in the past. This Holiday Inn is just off the 8 freeway and 6 miles away from Qualcomm, a 10 minute drive. Reviews are good. Free parking and internet.

George,
When you stay on a Pricline bid, I assume you don't get that hotels points in their rewards programs. But... do you get the benefits of your already achieved rewards member level.... such as free internet or breakfast, if it's an otherwise charge situation without those rewards benefits at that location?

Re: Perpetual Hotel for Event Thread (priceline, etc)
I can't answer that Craig. But I would assume that since Priceline rooms are so deeply discounted that hotel rewards probably don't apply. I can tell you the American Express card I use gives me a two percent cash credit on hotels at the end of the year whether I book through Priceline, Hotwire or direct.Craig Naylor wrote:George,

A hotel just showed up on Hotwire.com in the La Mesa area. I believe it's the same hotel I got for $42 on Priceline. If Priceline doesn't work out for you, check out the Hotwire deal. Still a great price for this hotel.

For those looking for a hotel for the 4/5-7 Pro, I Priceline'd a hotel for Fri-Sun $65/night. $155.62 for 2 nights including taxes. With P/L fees, no need to go higher since booking direct is $85++/night.

Has anyone tried Priceline for SD Tour or El Toro Pro?
I tried $67 for 3 stars for Hotel Circle and was rejected.

Crow's Landing Pro Solo 6/6-6/8 and Tour 6/13-6/15.
Booked the Best Western in Patterson for both weekends, $85 plus tax per night using the SCCA block rate. Looks like a decent enough place in a very limited market. About 5 miles North or Crow's Landing. Credit card hold required. Liberal cancellation terms.
Has anyone else booked anything via Hotwire or Priceline?

Re: Perpetual Hotel for Event Thread (priceline, etc)
I just booked there as well for both weekends.
She said they're close to full both weekends, so don't put it off for much longer.
I got a room in the reserved SCCA block for the Pro, but the block of rooms for the Tour is already used up, and they only have smoking rooms left.
I was able to get the SCCA price for both weekends, even though the block is used up.

Supposedly, there is a wait list for a room that doesn't smoke and I'm the first one on it. If you call back, you could be number two. Between now and then, certainly they'll have some cancellations.

I, on the other hand, now have a room that doesn't smoke!

If the room did smoke, it's probably just an e-(lectrical) one!George Schilling wrote:I, on the other hand, now have a room that doesn't smoke!

Re: Perpetual Hotel for Event Thread (priceline, etc)
We won't be going to the Crow's Landing Pro Solo after all.
Before I cancel, I have a non-smoking two queen room at the nicest hotel in Patterson. Last I heard they were sold out. Anybody want it?
