  1. The Tuscany rooms are gorgeous and rival the Venetian & Bellagio in Vegas.

    I enjoyed the Concierge tower of the Atlantis more as the service was so much better. We had our bed turned down with 2 mini bottles of Irish Cream left for night-caps. They also offer a really nice free breakfast in the conceirge lounge as well as free hot appetizer food + desserts for later afternoon early evening munching.

    Still looking to have a stay at the top floors of the Grand Sierra to check out there 4* rooms.

    $5 resort fee per night was payable at the hotel upon check-in

    Hotel was very nice - we stayed in the west tower on the 20th floor. There is a freight train that does run along the hotel so ask for a high floor to avoid the noise. Best pool in all of Reno ( Peppermill, Atlantis, Sands, Grand Sierra). Rooms are also very spacious.

  3. 10/31 - 11/2 - 2 nights (Friday & Saturday)

    Hotels.com rate $80/nt

    Peppermill - as it is 4* I expect to be in a Tower room and not the 3* Montego Bay wing

    $35 was rejected on Friday 10/24

    $38 was rejected on Tuesday 10/28

    rebid on Tuesday 10/28 $41 and added Sparks location

    For reference, Hotwire listed the 3.5* Grand Sierra for $39 per night. Stayed here in July and was not fond of the place due to the poor location, kid friendly atmosphere, long walk from parking lot to lobby to hotel room.

    Hotwire listed the Montego Bay - Peppermill 3* at $43 per night.

    My first PRICELINE win as I am religious HOTWIRE user and will update on my experience once we return from our trip on Monday!

  4. 7/11 - 7/13

    3.5*

    $38/night

    Casino - Pool - Restaurant

    Hotel just became listed this afternoon and I have never seen it before as we go to Reno 4-5 times a year. I've been checking Hotwire twice a day for the last week and its the first time I've ever seen this specific hotel listed.

    From this link it would appear to be Harrahs?

    Hotwire Reno Harrahs

    Harrahs website shows no rooms available though :)

  5. We frequent Reno and agree - Do not stay at the Holiday Inn!

    3* rating is complete BS. The 2.5* Sands Regency is much much nicer and also in downtown and only 2 blocks off the strip in a much nicer area. The Holiday Inn is about 8-10 blocks off the strip in a seedy neighborhood.

    A "not recommended" warning should be added to the list of Reno Hotwire hotels based on all the negative reviews.

  6. Enjoyed my stay!

    The hotel has been completely remodeled so I think the reviews on Travelocity/Hotels.com are prior to the remodel.

    Stayed on the 7th floor and the view was quite nice.

    Parking is $10, but metered street parking is available and I'm sure you could park in another businesses lot but with rental cars at PDX being so cheap $10 is not too bad. ( I paid $32 with tax for a AWD Impreza as I booked a Sebring sized car from Dollar rental cars website)

    The Airport shuttle vans exist, there are 2 as this hotel had a ton of Airline pilots staying at it as it's reasonable in price and very close to downtown and things to do.

  7. 3* Best Value in Portland, Oregon ( Downtown-Convention Center) on Wednesday 01/2/08

    Holiday Inn Portland Downtown

    1441 Northeast Second Avenue

    Portland, Oregon 97232

    (503) 233-2401

    Amenities Listed: Fitness, Restaurant(s), Pool, Business Center, Laundry Facilities, Internet access

    Hotwire Price: $59.00 (with taxes and fees, total was $72.31)

    Hotel's best internet rate was $109.00.

    The shuttle which so many others on this board referenced to is no longer listed. Can a Moderator fix my title, I posted 2007 as I'm still stuck in the past but this was for 2008.

    Thanks!
