This is not really a 4* hotel, as I have been using Hotwire and Priceline in the zone for many years. Even our better bidding Hotwire hotel list page does not reflect it as a 4*. I was unhappy with this win. Amenities listed: Free parking Suite - I should have been suspect when I saw this one. Indoor pool(s) Airport shuttle Smoke-free rooms Fitness center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business center Self-service laundry Internet access

$44 ... 4/19/10 - 4/20/10 Used PRICELINE link as always.

$44 3/30/10...3/31/10 Was getting worried that the crazy cheap deals had dried up as I was paying $70 the past few Tampa trips. Used PRICELINE link as always.

$70...02/25/10-02/26/10 Started bidding at $50 and moved up in $4 increments to $66, then $2 increments to $70. Lots of 3.5 star and lower zones recently added. Used PRICELINE link as always.

Then I will continue with calling it the Inter-Continental. Thanks for inspiring me!!! Have a good day.

$50 ... 8/31/09 - 9/1/09 Used PRICELINE link.

Just curious, why are you changing all of the references to InterContinental hotels to Inter-Continental? If you look at their website, there is no hyphen.

$44 ... 9/4/09 - 9/5/09 What a deal! Used PRICELINE link as always.

$60...8/17/09-8/18/09 I was getting spoiled at $45 and $46 at the Grand Hyatt and Intercontinental, but tried starting at $45 for the past 2 nights. A very nice hotel for $60 plus tax. Last year I paid $150 on PRICELINE for the same place when demand was high. I would still start low, this overnight may just be a peak and odd date. Used PRICELINE link as always.

$122 ... 5/19/09-5/20/09 $140.59 with taxes and fees, very good value as I have paid standard rate here before and that was a bargain considering the quality of the rooms and common areas.
