Amenities listed: Smoke-Free Rooms, Fitness Center, Restaurant, Business Center, High-Speed Internet Booked it because it was cheap and I could figure out which hotel it was---there were MANY Manhattan hotels that I couldn't figure out and weren't on the pinned Hotwire list. Worth mentioning that this hotel has a swimming pool (not currently showing up on the amenities list)...and also that they allow small dogs in the rooms. ***Worth noting that as far as I saw, there is no 'Midtown South' area on Hotwire, assume it's been split into east and west areas: Empire State Building Area, and the Chelsea - Madison Square Garden Area. Probably worth updating the pinned Hotwire list at some point with these, I used hotel addresses to figure out the listings based on the 'pinned list' for Midtown South.

Oops, forgot to mention, there's a new amenity listed on this hotel from HOTWIRE: SMOKE-FREE. Please edit the Hotwire Hotel List for Kona if it's not there, thanks!

Booked 5 nights (1/8/09-1/13/09) at the 3* Royal Kona Resort for $86/night, booking made 11/16/09. Amenities listed: Oceanfront, Restaurant, Pool, Tennis, Spa FYI that this hotel has mixed reviews because there is a rennovated section (Alii & Lagoon Towers) and unrennovated section (Bay Tower), which is suposed to be a dump. Not sure which section Hotwire booking is for, or if it varies with each booking, or if the hotel decides. Anyway, I'm thrilled I found this site--I needed to book this specific hotel but wanted to get a good rate. Booking directly with the hotel, standard rooms range between $145-$200, depending on views and which tower you're in. So definitely at least 60% savings off of the full price. And I checked the packages offered for the same dates just to make sure that I'd (probably) get the hotel I wanted.
