  1. We have a trip to Las Vegas planned for October. I'm feeling really unsure about booking this far in advance but this is a trip for four couples. I find prices for Las Vegas hotels high right now and it's even higher when converting to our sad Canadian dollar. I saw this today and wondered whether there are any guesses. It sure looks somewhat like the wins reported for Planet Hollywood and the Paris...but not exactly. We are interested in both of those hotels. We are not interested in Harrah's or the Linq, both which seem to show up as 4* properties on Hotwire. Our dates: October 20 - 24th (4 nights) Rooms wanted: 4 Rooms for 8 adults Here's what we get when I select Hotwire Easy View: 4* Center Strip - $77 (US) Full Amenities: Pet Friendly, Casino, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness Centre, Pools(s), Restaurant(s), Business Centre, Internet access, Golf Nearby, Spa services, Accessible for visually impaired, Accessible for hearing impaired, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking, Roll-in shower When I look for this through the regular HOTWIRE link, it also has an 80% rating. Can you help with which Centre Strip hotel this might be? Thank you :)
  2. Celebrating this win! The guess provided (while not certain) was RIGHT!! Again! Thanks for your assistance. We are thrilled. Amenities: Indoor Pool(s), Smoke-free rooms, Fitness Centre, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business Centre, Internet Access, Spa services Accessibility: Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Wheelchair accessible, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking, Roll-in shower
  3. Thanks for this......I'm pondering the possibilities and will make a decision in the next day or so. The option you mention above is a Priceline Express Deal, yes? I'm super interested in the possibility of the Hotel Palace Berlin but too bad about the single bed option. I took that to mean just one bed that would accommodate 2 adults but maybe not? We are definitely going to go with a HOTWIRE or PRICELINE EXPRESS option, we just aren't sure which one yet. I will absolutely post the final decision here.
  4. Finally bit the bullet and booked a flight to Berlin today -- we are needing accommodation for three nights in July. The Hotwire selection that we are most interested in is as follows: Dates: July 10 - 13 - 2 Adults City Centre - Tiergarten - Berlin Zoo $73 USD Amenities (from Hotwire Easy View): Indoor pool, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness centre, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business Centre, Internet Access, Spa Services, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Wheelchair accessible, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking, Roll-in shower. Any ideas? Any perspectives on this area of Berlin? Thank you in advance for your time.
  5. I don't know if it's appropriate to follow up after a stay but I just wanted to report that this was a FANTASTIC hotel. It was in the best spot -- right beside Pont Neuf. It was an easy and safe walk (day and night) to Ile de la Cite, to the Marais area, to the Latin Quarter and to St Germain des Pres area. The hotel itself was incredible. Big safe lobby with cappucino/latte machine :). The rooms were really nice and the hotel staff super service oriented. We couldn't believe our luck. Thanks again to the folks on this board and their uncanny ability to nail the hotels.

Thank you in advance!
  7. Oh my goodness -- thank you so very much for the information. It was the H10!!!! We can't wait!! I just have to say -- this board is amazing....your guesses have been 100% on and I've asked for advice from this board several times for several different destinations. Stay tuned -- about to look what's available in Paris. Thank you again!
  8. I've found the following on PRICELINE EXPRESS: 1) 4-Star hotel Westminster-House of Parliament-Victoria area - $139/night Amenities: Restaurant, Free Internet, Fitness Centre, Business Centre Rated 8 out 10 or higher 2) 4- Star hotel in Bloomsbury-Marble Arch-King's Cross Station - $139/night Amenities: None listed Rated 8 out of 10 or higher 3) 4-Star hotel in The City-Tower Bridge-St Paul's area - $123/night Amenities: Restaurant, Free Internet, Fitness Centre, Business Centre Rated 8 out of 10 or higher 4) 5-star hotel in the City-Tower Bridge-St Paul's area - $177/night Amenities: Pets Allowed, Fitness Centre, Restaurant, Free Internet Rated 9 out of 10 or higher Any guesses on these? As always, thanks so much for your insight. It's always so remarkable how much the admins here know.
  9. Wow -- thank you for your confirmation of my hunch!!! I've learned a lot here! Very grateful :)
  10. Thank you for the super quick response -- much appreciated! When you say that the first listing above is a "possible match", are there other possible matches that you can think of? I was thinking that the worst case scenario was that I'd get the Palazzo rather than the Venetian. Now don't get me wrong, the Palazzo is an awesome property and we LOVE it. I'm just trying to get a room at the Venetian because others are staying there that I'm travelling with.
  11. Once again, I'm hoping for some help before I make my purchase. I'm always grateful for the wisdom from this board. Honestly, it's one of the things in life that you can really count on! I'm really hoping for the Venetian for four nights at the end of May and am seeing these: North Strip area Hotel - $210 CAD/night Free parking Free Internet Resort Suite Casino Fitness center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business center Self-service laundry Internet access Golf nearby Tennis nearby Spa services Accessible for visually impaired Accessible for hearing impaired Accessible path of travel In-room accessibility Accessible bathroom Accessible parking Roll-in Shower North Strip area Resort - $210 CAD/night Free parking Free Internet Resort Suite Casino Fitness center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business center Internet access Golf nearby Tennis nearby Spa services Accessible for visually impaired Accessible for hearing impaired Accessible path of travel In-room accessibility Accessible bathroom Accessible parking Roll in Shower Any help to ID these will be gratefully appreciated! Thank you.

  13. Wanted to share this recent win. We booked one night then three weeks later booked a second night. Same hotel both times. Great property - this is the third time we've gotten this hotel through Hot.wire.
  14. Thank you so much!! We really didn't want the Encore. As beautiful as that property is, it is just that much further than where we like to be. So, since I was still seeing the set of amenities on Hotwire that I posted (which differed slightly from what you saw - which is weird), we took a gamble and got the Wynn! So happy. Thank you. P.S. This board ROCKS. You are so helpful and I've learned a lot.
  15. Hello, We are bouncing between Priceline Express and Hotwire for our upcoming trip to Vegas. This is what we are seeing for amenities for the above 5* star hotel in the North Strip area. Dates: January 22, 2015 - January 25th, 2015 (3 nights). Cost - $186/Canadian/night Free Parking Casino Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center Internet access Golf Nearby Tennis Nearby Spa Services Accessible for the deaf Accessible path of travelIn-room accessibility Accessible bathroom Handicapped parking Roll-in shower Any idea? It doesn't list "Suite" as an amenity so I'm sure it's not the Venetian or Palazzo......unfortunately. The Wynn? Thanks for any assistance you can provide. This board is so awesome :)
  16. For this set of dates, we ended up booking directly with the TI.
  17. Hello, We've never used Priceline Express so are a bit nervous. Here's what we are looking at: 5* - Las Vegas Strip North Area for $170/night Dates: Jan 22 - 25 (3 nights) Amenities: Indoor or outdoor pool Casino Restaurant Fitness Center Free Parking Business Center Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
  18. Done :) Decided we wanted to be sure about the location and booked the Hyatt. Unusual for us -- we love to book through HOTWIRE and have never been disappointed.
  19. We ended up booking the Hyatt through an agency. It was important for us to be at that end of town. So for this trip, we skipped booking through HOTWIRE.

  21. Thank you so much. That was certainly one of our guesses as well. I'm just not sure about this particular property. I would really, really like the Hyatt or Hilton. Happy to use the link through this site if and when we book. Thanks again :)
