1:30 - 2:30 pm. if i was lucky i could get like a 3:30 train outta montreal. but that's a five hour train ride, so i wouldn't get to TO till 8:30 at least. and by then i'll have missed a whole day's worth of fun.

Just a suggestion to you guys. If any of you have a credit card you can get 4 star hotel room for about $50-$60 a night in downtown Toronto through Price Line. I have stayed at the Sheraton, Westin Harbor Castle, Marriot at the Eaton Center for about $50. These rooms run about 300-350CA a night.

Just a suggestion to you guys. I got to Toronto once or twice a year. I am going back up on Feb 19th.

how does price line work?

areusad831 · Post by **areusad831** » 1/18/2004, 9:03 pm

ok so we are looking at hotels..does anyone besides Bethany, Nikki (and Moneky), Melissa, Kimmy, and Nam plan on staying in the hotels either Friday or Saturday night???

Anyone know if any of these hotels are good or not so good?

Ramada on Jarvis Street- $79 a night
Bond Place Hotel on Dundas St- $69 a night (this one you get a 3rd night free) - This is for 2 Single Beds though which sucks..for two doubles its $96 each night
Best Western Downtown- $70 night
Quality Inn Downtown- $69 a night
Quality Inn Midtown- $81 a night
Days Inn Conference Center in Downtown is $87 a night (it has a pool and jacuzzi which no others have)

then there is the Delta Chelsea which has a The Family Fun Zone features downtown Toronto's only 130 foot indoor waterslide, a family pool with adjoining spa and sauna for $93 a night

we need to pick one of these soon...so if anyone wants to party at hotel with us we are thinking like 4-6 per room so it wont be much money. List yourself here if you would like to join us

I told you, you could get Downtown Toronto for about 50-60 a night. Less then those hotels.

The Delta Chelsea is a nice hotel.

You can also go to www.toronto.com

If you are going to pay that much you can get B/B places for aobut that much. With those hotels if you have more then 2-3 people you are usually charged $15-$25 for an extra person.

Lori.

priceline works like this. You have to put in your charge card first. You put in the price you are willing to pay. With me I put in $50(as start) for A 3 star in Downtown Toronto. I usually get it for about 50-60 a night. Only thing is you have to take what they give you-I have been lucky with getting great hotels. Only one time I didn't care for the hotel(location). You have to take the hotel they give you and it is all ready paid for( that is why you take off the cahrge card)

Orbitz also gives deals on hotels. I always book through Price line when I use a hotel in Toronto. I usually get right around the CN tower.

I've used expedia to get cheap hotels in Toronto - and it lets you choose your hotel before you give over your credit card details!

Priceline sounds good if we really wanna save some money. I'm game, but I'm not the one with a credit card. :lol:
