This is my first post, thank you for providing me with a wealth of information regarding PRICELINE bidding and HOTWIRE booking. I used the links provided in the forum to book a hotel room with each site. My results for Vancouver are as follows: I booked a 5* hotel room in Vancouver - downtown west with the following amenities listed: Fitness center, business center, pool(s), high-speed internet access, restaurant(s), spa services The blind rate was $107 (I assume USD? it might be CAN... I don't feel like checking into it(I'm pretty sure this is all in USD)) The hotel that I got was "The Sutton Place Hotel" my rate was $107(USD) per night, for three nights. Add $65.85 for 'tax recovery charges & fees' for a total of $386.85, or $128.95 per night. This my first posting of results, so constructive criticism is encouraged. Did I share the useful information? Did I miss anything? Is there anything else that I can/should add to this community?
