  1. Results of a hotel booking via Hotwire 100% recommended -Free Internet -Business center | Fitness center | Restaurant(s) | Smoke-free rooms -Accessible path of travel | In-room accessibility | Accessible bathroom Received the Pullman Montparnasse as expected. I know the area and it is a full service hotel across from the Montparnasse Train station. Airport CDG and ORLY shuttle buses are also directly across the street. Paid $98 and couldn't be happier with the pick.
  2. First time using Priceline (usually use Hotwire), but with their split of East/West zone, I knew it would be in my preferred location. Was really hoping for the Sheraton (inside the terminal) or the Novotel or Hilton, but ended up getting the Pullman Paris Charles De Gaulle Airport which is within the zone, but just not as convenient. Still accessible via the CDG-VAL tram, but you have to get off at a parking lot and walk about 1 KM to the hotel (maybe less, hard to tell on Google Maps). Anyhow, bid $80 for 4*. Was rejected. Added 3* same zone and upped to $90. Was accepted. I should have waited closer to the date (May is still far off), I'm sure I would have gotten the Hilton or Sheraton as others did. Review for the Pullman are also pretty bad, but they just completed a full reno, so the most recent ones seem a bit better.
  3. Lille France. 4* Old City - Euralille area Amenities: Free Internet, Pet Friendly, Fitness Centre, Business centre. Turns out to be the Suites Novotel Lille Europe. It's currently rated #5 on Trip Advisor for Hotels in Lille. Slightly out of the way, but within 5-10 mins walk from the centre of town. Euralille shopping centre and Lille Europe train station just across the street.
  4. The Novotel is not really inside Terminal 3 at Roissy, but rather very close to it (3-5 min walk), inside the RER station called Roissy Pole. It has 3 hotels all near each other (Ibis, Novotel and a Hilton). I stayed at all 3 and can say the Novotel is a very decent hotel. While not as nice as a Sheraton, it is still a great hotel. You have direct access to the Roissy Val (free Train Shuttle) which will take you to T1 or T2 terminals (T3 is right next to hotel), and you can also take the RER commuter train into Paris in about 40 mins. Hint, if you find the breakfast too expensive at the Novotel, just walk over to the Ibis where it's much cheaper and still amazing.
  5. I just want to add that I inquired with the hotel regarding the Wifi. It's 5 euros an hour or 11 euros for 3 hours. Many hotels (especially in this category) now offer free wifi in France.
  6. 3* hotel booked in Lille France 10/03-10/14 (11 nights!) 2 guests Received Holiday Inn Express Complimentary Breakfast <amenity names only please... not descriptions> Restaurant(s) Property offers at least one restaurant on the premises; hours and days of operation may vary. Business Center Guests have access to business equipment and services; an additional charge may apply. High-speed Internet Access Guestrooms are equipped with high-speed Internet access; an extra charge may apply. Booked using HOTWIRE link from this site. Price $88 + fees, etc.. for a total of $1054 for 11 nights (less than $100 a night for Lille with breakfast is good).
  7. Booked it (via the HOTWIRE link) and received the Sheraton Brussels Airport Hotel. 4.5* located within the airport. Wow ... over $35 in fees/taxes..
  8. Thanks for checking. The reason I think it might be the Sheraton as appose to the Crown Plaza is because the description doesn't list any shuttle. Since the Hotel is adjacent to the airport, it would make sense (like the Sheraton at CDG). I will book likely tonight (once I book my flight, so I will post the results for sure!)
  9. Looking at using Hotwire for a Brussels airport (BRU) stay. Check-in date: Oct 14 one night 4.5-star hotel in Brussels Intl Airport BRU This hotel features the following amenities: Fitness Center Restaurant(s) Business Center Laundry Facilities High-speed Internet Access Was quoted a price of $79 US. I'm thinking it might be the Sheraton hotel that is located 39 steps from the airport (according to the web site). I can't think of any 4.5* hotels nearby, Any suggestions? Need to book by Friday as I have $25 hot dollars expiring, making the deal even sweeter ;-)
  10. Thanks so much, I've been trying to identify this hotel for months! Mods, can it be added to the hotel list?
  11. OK, thanks. I will monitor and if I do decide to get this, I will post the result so that it can be added to your hotel list.
  12. I'm sorry, I totally forgot about the thread when it came time to book (the email notification wasn't checked for that thread), but it is for this one.
  13. Sorry, for the late reply. I totally forgot about this thread. I ended up booking a car directly via Hertz using online discounts available to me. The price was very competitive at that time. Car rentals for LAS are offsite and you need to take a shuttle bus from the terminal itself which can be a hassle to some. When we arrive at 1am, we waited close to 45 mins for a bus to take us to the car rental agency. When it was all said and done, we waren't at our hotel until close to 3am.
  14. Hi everyone, Could someone possibly help ID the following hotel in Paris CDG. 4-star hotel in Charles de Gaulle Intl Airport CDG Amenities: Fitness, pool, restaurant, Business, laundry, Internet, tennis, spa. Price: $125 Date: Oct 15-17 (2 nights, 2 adults) Thanks!
  15. Thanks, so despite the fact that it is not listed as an airport location in the description, it should still be within proximity to the airport? And yes please move to the proper section. Sorry about that. Thanks!
  16. Thanks for the speedy reply (as always). The dates are: LAS (Vegas) May 7th (10:30pm) to May 14th (Noon) I know that the car rental pickup is not in the terminal itself (they are all located at an off-site facility), but they offer a shuttle and this is still considered an "airport location". I just don't want to book and then discover that my pickup is somewhere else like downtown Vegas or in a Hotel or Suburbs... M
  17. I'm looking into booking a car at LAS for one week. It seems to be a good deal at $11.99 per day + all the other fees. My question is: How can I confirm that the pickup/drop off is at the airport? The site seems to claim that they only deal with airport locations, but then there's a statement in the FAQ that says: Q: Do I pick up my car at the airport? A: Yes, as long as you see one of these descriptions in the search result: - Rental counter is located inside the airport terminal; a shuttle ride may be needed to pick up your car. - Rental counter is located at the airport; a shuttle will take you to pick up the car. If you don't see either of these descriptions, it means pick up location information is not available at this time. There's no airport location in the description. So does this mean that it might be elsewhere? I never booked a car via Hotwire. I'm also arriving very late, so I don't want surprises
  18. Yes, the amenities were the same as originally posted: 3.5* $82 Fitness, Restaurant, business centre, High Speed >> Single Occupancy and I ended up with the Delta Montreal (located on 475 Avenue President Kennedy)
  19. Thanks. I bid on the 3.5 star for Sept 14-16 for 1 person and ended up with the Delta Montreal which is fine for me. $82/night plus applicable taxes and fees. Thanks for your help! Michel
  20. Greetings, I'm trying to identify the following 2 hotels from Hotwire for Montreal Downtown on September 14-16 4* $102 Fitness, Restaurant, business centre, High Speed Over 120+ reviews on trip Advisor My guess is the Hyatt 3.5* $82 Fitness, Restaurant, business centre, High Speed No other info. According to the list of Hotels here, it appears to be the Ritz. Any other suggestions? I would really like to be close to Sherbrooke, preferably the Cantlie, but those two don't show a pool. Thanks in advance, great site!
