Online Travel Booking and Bidding Agencies - Where Have Winning PL Hotel Bids Returned to 2002-04 Levels?

Not around SFO, where the Hyatt and Sheraton were $31 to $35 on off-peak nights, and are now $56-60. You'd think the rotten economy would cause better hotel deals.

Are there places where winning hotel bids have returned to post-9/11 levels? If there aren't many, why not?

General inflation is usually a good place to start. Try:

which gave me $100 in 2002 would be $114 in 2007.

Then there are factors explicit to the hotel and travel industry, and I'm sure many others.
