Hotwire Hotel: help identify hotel london 5 stars

[europe34]

Hi,

 

I used the betterbidding tool for hotwire search 

 

London 6/6 - 10/6

 

Mayfair - Piccadilly Circus - Soho area hotel

 

5 stars

 

252$ per night (instead of 470$) (from strange reason in the "easy view" tab the price is 257$ - how come ?)

 

FULL AMENITIES: Pet friendly, Fitness Center, Restaurant(s), Business Center, Internet access, Golf Nearby, Tennis Nearby, Spa Services

 

trip advisor rate is 4.5/5 with 95% recommendations

 

any idea what it is ?

Thanks!

Please provide a follow-up for your prior Barcelona Hotwire thread (post in that thread what you decided for that stay), then reply to this thread and we'll be happy to look into the above. Please follow-up your threads with whatever you end up doing, even if you chose to book direct, cancel your trip, etc.

Update the other thread Barcelona.

please ty helping regarding London.

Sometimes the BiddingHelper.com will be a few dollars cheaper, sometimes the HOTWIRE tab a few dollars cheaper... often they'll be the same (as i'm currently seeing both at $257/nite).

Best guess for this property would be the Metropolitan Hotel London.

Thanks for the reply.

do you mean the hotel  :  "Metropolitan by COMO, London" ?

2 general questions:

1.The price I see is final ? how much approximately i should add for tax ?

2. generally when you book hotel directly the sooner you make the reservation the price will be lower, is this also the case when booking in hotwire ?

Tax is shown during check-out, before you make your purchase.

 

Prices do not always go down closer to the stay. They can absolutely go in the other direction, as well. There have been less in the way of "last minute" price drops in recent years as traffic/demand has gone up. If this is a busy period for any reason (event, convention), rates can go up closer to the date/s.

 

Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

Yes, i was referring to The Metropolitan by COMO.

As noted above, the purchase including taxes/fees is shown on the last page of the booking process where you input your information (look in the TRIP SUMMARY box on the right side of the page)
