My friend just booked a hotel for she and I, and *possibly* 1-2 other friends. Since we were unsure, she went with HOTWIRE instead of PRICELINE, and requested quad occupancy so we would be assured of having two beds in case the extra people stay. The hotel she won was the Crowne Plaza in Asheville, NC, for $59 (one night). This hotel is reviewed here: Asheville Crowne Plaza Review I just went to the hotel's website to compare our price with the rack rate, and noticed that there's a $12 fee per person, starting with the 3rd person. So this may add as much as $24, even if our other friends don't come, since we booked for 4 people? Or are we exempt from this fee, since the HOTWIRE total price should have been for four adults? I would not have booked the room at the rate of $83, which is what we may end up having to pay. (I did search the board for this before posting, and read a few threads, but couldn't really find a concrete yes or no answer. Does this policy vary by hotel? My only other similar experience was when I DID have to pay a $10 resort fee when I booked a hotel through PRICELINE, but I wasn't in the mood to fight it that time.)
