dharmainitiative Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 Hello! Thanks for this site! Member since 2007. I hope I've added something to the lists. Spending four nights in Miami Beach area 2/25/16 - 2/29/16. Wanted to know if I could get some educated best guesses on some hotels I found on Hotwire and Priceline Express. Our budget is around $150 a night. Guess we're leaning towards the resort on the beach in Miami Beach area if only allowed help with one. Thanks in advance! Miami Beach, FL / Two guests, 2/25/16 - 2/29/16: Hotwire: 3.5 Star Miami Beach South Area Resort $154 (normally $193) Free Internet, Beach front, Business Center, Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Smoke-Free Rooms, $12 Resort Fee, Bed Choice 60% Recommended, 3.5/5 TripAdvisor (2001+ reviews) 3.5 Star Miami Beach South Area Hotel $149 (30% off, normally $212) Free Internet, Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant 65% Recommended, 3.5/5 TripAdvisor (1001-1500 reviews) 3 Star Central South Beach $124 (49% off) Free Internet, $20 Resort Fee 50% Recommended, 3/5 TripAdvisor (301-500 reviews) Priceline Express: 3.5 Star Miami Beach Area Hotel $150 (38% or more off, normally $242) Rated 7+ Business Center, Free Internet, Indoor or Outdoor Pool, Fitness Center 3 Star South Beach Central $152 (22% or more off, normally $195) Restaurant, Free Internet, Indoor or Outdoor Pool Link to comment
thereuare Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Welcome back! Too late at this point in time, but please always conclude your threads with whatever you decide to do for the stay (even if you don't use PRICELINE / HOTWIRE, cancel the trip, book a regular rate hotel, etc)... this helps keep the board better organized and more useful for everyone, as well as being a courtesy to anyone who took the time to help with your trip. Best guess/comments for the PRICELINE EXPRESS properties: 3.5 Star Miami Beach Area Hotel --> Four Points By Sheraton Miami Beach 3 Star South Beach Central --> no guess For the HOTWIRE offers: I believe there are more amenities then what you have posted above as HOTWIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you search using the EASY VIEW TAB of our BiddingHelper.com tool. If you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper.com tool... use the HOTWIRE EASY VIEW tab and then click the GREEN BUTTON next to this listing, do you see more amenities (including any accessible amenities) then what you have listed above? Using this method, below is the full list of amenities i'm seeing for each: 3.5 Star Miami Beach South Area Resort $154 (normally $193) Resort, Beachfront, Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Smoke Free, Free Internet, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, Golf, Spa, Wheelchair Accessible --> Miami Beach Resort I don't have a guess for the other HOTWIRE offers, but do you really want to stay at a hotel where only 50-65% of previous guests would recommend the hotel?? Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases. Let us know what you decide for this trip or if we can be of further help. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
dharmainitiative Posted February 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Thanks. I thought I had tied up all my threads in the past. I did a search on old threads and didn't see anything outstanding. Perhaps I missed something. Sorry. Thanks for the BiddingHelper.com tool. I will try that. I agree we don't want anything 50-65% but willing to compromise a little when price and location are most important. I will update when we make our choice. I do have a hotel to contribute to the lists. I did an unsuccessful priceline search for a 4 star hotel in South Beach which unlocked a PRICELINE EXPRESS deal. The Price line Express 3 star South Beach Central hotel on my list above is the Crest Hotel Suites. Thanks for the response. Link to comment

dharmainitiative Posted February 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Thanks for the help! We ended up going with Priceline Express and indeed it was the Four Points Sheraton Miami Beach! 3.5 star hotel for $141 a night. Expensive weekend in the area with the South Beach Food and Wine Festival but we got a great deal. Used the links and appreciate the help once again. Link to comment
