Orlando offers one of the absolute best opportunities to use Priceline® to win a Resort room. Currently, only two of the eleven Orlando bidding areas offer resort bidding. Those two areas are the Disney World Vicinity area and the Universal Studios – Sea World area. This is perfect for anyone looking to travel to Orlando to enjoy its many theme parks. This article will demonstrate how to use BidSmartForHotels.com’s hotel bidding strategy generator to generate an effective bidding strategy that will allow us to bid multiple times without the 24 hour wait period that Priceline’s requires between issuing the same bid.
Why does this work so well in Orlando? It’s simply because Priceline® allows you to rebid immediately if you can change something about your bid. With so many areas in Orlando that do not offer Resorts, we are safe to add these areas as long as we keep bidding for a resort. And if we apply a little combinatorial math to the bidding scheme and are willing to log out of our Priceline account and log back in, our bids are virtually limitless as you will see. The algorithm that BidSmartForHotels.com’s hotel bidding strategy generator uses does all the hard work for us.
Example: Creating a Priceline bidding strategy for a resort in the Disney World Vicinity area
Using the link presented in step one of the Strategy Generator, we open a new window to Priceline®, click on the Name Your Own Price® link, enter Orlando, FL into the city text field, enter our dates, and then click on the “bid now” button. We are then presented with a list of available bidding areas for Orlando.

We all know that nice hotel rooms in New York City can be costly. Priceline® can help you save substantial money on your accommodations. Here is an example of a hotel bidding strategy that was generated using BidSmartForHotels.com’s strategy generator for bidding on a 4* hotel in New York’s Midtown West bidding area. This example should only be used to illustrate how easy it is to create a bidding strategy for New York City using our site. Since bidding areas and maximum star levels can change on a daily basis, you must generate your own new strategy. Please do not use this strategy as it is presented here.
Example: Generating a Priceline® Bidding Strategy for a 4-Star Deluxe hotel in New York’s Midtown West area
Using the link presented in step one of the Strategy Generator, we open a new window to Priceline®, click on the Name Your Own Price® link, enter New York City, NY into the city text field, enter our dates, and then click on the “bid now” button. We are then presented with a list of available bidding areas for New York City.
Moving on to step two, we need to enter the name and maximum star level into the Bidding Generator for each and every bidding area. We start by selecting Brooklyn and noting that the highest star level that becomes active is the 3½-Star Upscale-Plus. We enter Brooklyn and 3½-Star Upscale-Plus into the Area Name and Maximum Star Level and then click the Add Area button. The information for Brooklyn is added to the bidding areas table. We then deselect the Brooklyn area and click the Central Park Area noting that the 4-Star Deluxe area is the highest star level that becomes active. Once again we add this information into the Strategy Generator. We repeat this for each available area. After we are done, the bidding areas table looks similar to the following:
