4* DC (White House) Donovan House Amenities: Boutique Hotel Fitness Center Business Center High-Speed Internet Access Accessible path of travel In-room accessibility Accessible bathroom $282 $325.09 after taxes and fees I normally would not look twice at a hotel for that price but considering it is Inauguration Day, the proximity of this hotel to the white house, the fact that it is pet friendly, and that many hotels are now charging $900+ I am very happy with this deal. Thanks! (FYI..It seems that Hotel Palomar is also currently available for close to the same price)

i will hold off for a little to see if any more 5 stars come up. thanks for your help!

Amenities are: Resort Casino Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center Golf Thanks!

Success! Boutique, Fitness, Restaurant, Internet, 80% Rec Thanks!

thank you for the help. Unfortunately, I selected it but the site has been "updating" for about 15 minutes. I will wait for a little to see if it goes through.

Still trying to work with these dates...found the following: 4* Central Park $170 for Boutique, Fitness, Restaurant, Internet with 80% recommended. Is it possible this is the Empire Hotel? My only concern is that I actually called them a few days ago to see if anything was available this weekend and I was told they were fully booked.

New hotel showing that wasn't up over the weekend... Bed choice Boutique No smoking Fitness center Business center 80% recommend searched for 2 people staying in the room. Thanks!

thank you. will try to hold out for a better deal on a different property.

thanks for the help. Decided to not do priceline/hotwire for this trip. Doesn't seem like that hotel is working with this sites yet. Also i was able to get a discount through the conference organizers. thanks!

Amenities listed: Boutique Business Internet Golf Tennis No review recommendations available yet. No idea what hotel this is. Any help would be appreciated. and this is searching for 2 adults.

Close to an event that evening so works out well. Added Mt. Vernon, Silver Springs, Bethesda, and Suburbs to get extra bids for only 4* tax 18.80 total 98.80 used PRICELINE link on site.

still the same with this HOTWIRE link.

Wynn (and win) it was. thanks

Upon further investigation...I clicked "reviews" and it told me the hotel is University Place Hotel & Conference Ctr Indianapolis. Seems like that defeats the purpose of getting a low price for not knowing what you will be staying. This adds to my confusion about the star ranking in the city now since I can't possibly see University Place and the new JW being in the same star category.

I am trying to figure out if this is for the JW Marriott. I see that this new hotel is now showing up on priceline. I figured hotwire would be the best bet in specifically get this hotel. I am not sure if hotwire or priceline would adjust their star rankings now that this is available. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thank you for the clarification and for providing this great resource to travelers!

Was hoping for the Hotel Palomar so followed the bidding/re-zoning as suggested on another post for that hotel: 65$ rejected, add zone 70$ rejected, add zone 75$ rejected, add zone 80$ accepted + 19.72 tax and fees 99.72 Saved more than 50% so I cant complain. For future reference (since I am slightly still confused), if I am bidding for a 4* hotel in downtown Philly I can potentially get any of the designated 4* hotels listed, correct? Thanks!

Thanks for this great forum!
