Pros: No need to setup an account, to use the service; some good deals Cons: Too much uncertainty and rigidity

William Shatner has by now burned the name "Priceline.com" into everyone's minds, simply through all of the television and radio advertisements that he has been on. For those who don't frequent either medium, Priceline.com is a web-site that specializes ...

Priceline works as a broker selling excess rooms. They get information from hotels as to what prices they are willing to accept for a room that may not otherwise be booked. Priceline entices you the consumer to play a game of chance. Step right ...

I will say right off that I have avoided Priceline.com as I like to know where I am staying. Actually, I like to know the amenities of where I am staying and when traveling with my family, these become first in my mind. So, I search and search...

I just got back from a trip to San Francisco and San Jose. I knew that San Francisco is a fairly expensive city and since I intend to go to Paris in a few months (a very expensive city) I was looking for ways to save cost on this trip. After some...

Pros: You may get a good deal! Cons: You have no say in where you are going to be put.
Four times I tried priceline.com's website to get a hotel at the Kansas City airport, and four times they said my bid was too low. Not that I do not check priceline.com on occasion, I have not found that there are any "real" bargains to be had. At least...

I travel often for business and usually travel alone. Very often my travel is to trade shows, conferences or other exhibitions where the sponsoring organization arranges a “special deal” with an area hotel. So, for years I would simply call that ...

Pros: Ah, none. Cons: You do not save anything, poor quality hotels, luck of the draw due to rating system, management shuns you, a B.S. idea so far
Priceline Hotels! WOW! Epinions has given me another manner of trashing the wonderful company that seems to catch so many people "hook, line, and sinker". Hallelujah! However, I can assure you that this epinion will not be as long, nor as...

Priceline.com has always fascinated me, although I'd never previously used it. Here is a service where you can name your own price for hotels, airline tickets or other services, but you are not allowed to pick what you'll end up with. This fact, in ...

Pros: The best possible rates at great hotels. Cons: You cannot change your mind.
I love www.Priceline.com. I loved it for groceries and use it frequently for hotel stays.
This is an updated review and since I first wrote it, I have used it many times. I usually went through Travelocity.com or Travelscape.com and...

I've used (and reviewed) Priceline for airline tickets ... so it was natural that I'd try them for hotels, too. The up side: I've booked hotels all over the country through Priceline, and when I've been successful, I've generally been able to get a ...

I really enjoy using Priceline. I admit is really is a gamble, but my husband and I have used it several times for both hotels and flights and not once have we been disappointed. One review said that the trick to using Priceline is to be educated ...

I know a lot of people are nervous about using Priceline, and I have read the negative reviews on Priceline's hotel booking service. However, I promise you, it really does work if you do your homework and bid carefully! Of course, you can't always know...

If you are flexible and looking to save money, you can get some great deals on hotel rooms through Priceline.com.
Last January I decided that I was going to attend the Chicago Blues Festival that would be held the first part of June right...

Pros: you will save money, easy to use Cons: somewhat of a blind purchase
I just finished my first experience with Priceline Hotels.
What impressed me
I got a great rate on my hotel room-$80.00 for a 3 star Marriott hotel on the waterfront in Norfolk, VA. The Marriott even showed me that they only...
