Hotwire Hotel: 3* Boston (Copley Square - Back Bay) Hotel 140

[Wyomingtraveler]

Hey all

 

I just booked a hotel for my pre-cruise stay (posted on this site). Now I am looking at a hotel for the 3 nights after my cruise. For these nights I am looking for something in back bay area (I think?), but am open to anything that might be close to some sightseeing opportunities (I am traveling with my retired parents that don't get around to well, so less walking is better). Please clue me into why I might want to look at hotels in the Back Bay area or some other zone through Hotwire. I thought the person paying for the trip would complain when i told him the previously booked hotel would cost him over $340, but he did not. I any event I won't say that price is not an option, but I don't think we need the most expensive place in Boston.

Hey

 

Just booked the Hotel 140 using the HOTWIRE link at this site and got the great deal listed below.

• Rate per night  $188.00 x 3 nights
• Subtotal  $564.00
• Tax recovery charges + fees $114.93
• Hotwire total  $678.93

This hotel feature the following amenities:

Free Internet - Smoke-free rooms - Fitness center - Business center - Self-service laundry - Internet access - In-room accessibility - Accessible bathroom

 

The total listed above is at least $250 off the best rate I was finding at sites like Hotels..com and Expe.dia. Does not look like it is the fanciest hotel, but does rate 4* out 5* at Tripadvisor and the location looks good, plus it has free internet (like to use to plan my day on public transit).
