Which priceline website is the best for me to try and get as cheap as possible 4 or 5 star hotel in Hong Kong?

Would it be...

www.priceline.co.uk
www.priceline.com
http://www.priceline.com.hk

I am a UK resident and I can bid on any of these three sites but I'm not sure which option is best for me to try and get 11 nights accomodation in March 2008.

Many thanks in advance to all replies.

For me, I always use the HK website for asia hotel.

What I love is that - if a bid is not accepted - they oftentimes come back and tell me what I should bid in order to get a room.... :)

In my experience, prices are a few dollars higher on the Asian Priceline sites than on Priceline.com. For HK, Priceline may or may not be useful; we haven't had any luck with 5* hotels in the past year (before that, the Sheraton and JW were easy to get), and for some of the 4* hotels, you can get comparable (or better) deals from European consolidators. In fact, I wouldn't use Priceline for 4* hotels in HK. If you're interested in 5*-ish hotels at Priceline prices, consider the Starwood z3h (stay 3 nights, pay 2) rates, or the the offers at Langham Place.

And welcome to FT!
