I do indeed see the additional amenites. Apologies for the newbie mistake Still not a match for the Crowne Plaza nor Hilton. Thanks for your speedy reply owl36 I mistakenly only put in for 2 adults today and got a lower rate by a few $. Is this standard for Hotwire. Thanks again

Suddenly faced with planning a trip over memorial day weekend to Hilton Head..... This property is available for 29-5 to 31-5 at a very competitive rate of $75 on Hotwire. 4* Hilton Head Island - Best Value Selected amenities include: Resort, Beachfront, Oceanfront, Restaurant(s), Pool(s), Fitness Center, Spa Services, High-Speed Internet Access. Doesn't look like the Crowne Plaza nor the Hilton. Could tyhis be the Marriott or something else? Thanks for your help...again owl36

Needed one night in a resort in Phoenix for this date. Abandoned original intentions of staying for 4 nights (unsuccessful to $130! in Tempe and North Phoenix - no availability for all nights at Squaw Peak nor Wyndham Buttes) and successfully bid for a resort in Tucson for 4/5-4/8 Initially bid North Phoenix $65, $70, $75, $80, $85 but no luck. Started again in Tempe $65, $70, $73 and then success at $76. Very happy to have secured my accomodation requirements at a better quality and saved some $$$. Must say that this is the longest I have had to persevere to be successful. Have persevered to be unsuccesful in the past before! I guess it reflects high season. Once again thank you to thereuare and to everyone who posts. I will keep up my part of the bargain by posting a review upon my return. owl36

Have been trying to get something in North Phoenix for these dates since February. Bidding once a week up to $100 for a resort. Last week bid up to $130 but still no luck. Although I thought my chances would improve as we got closer to travel, the availability started to become limited - Hilton - Squaw Peak, Wyndham Buttes (Tempe) and Scottsdale Plaza (Scottsdale) all showing sold out for individual nights. Having never been to Tucson, and heard good things about the place, I decided on an alternative destination for a change of scenery. Expected to get the Omni Tucson based on availability and previous posts on this board. Bid North Tucson $65 and was denied, increased to $70 and was offered a counterbid of $22. Restarted the process with 2nd free rebid zone at $75 and success. Very Pleased Indeed. Aware of the $12 resort fee but despite this I am saving some $$$ and going somewhere new. Once again thank you to the administrator/ moderators and to everyone who posts. I will keep up my part of the bargain by posting a review upon my return. owl36

Still haven't managed to work this one out. The Radisson Resort and Spa is closing down on the 31 March. I rang the hotel. So the availability from 4th April till 8th April cannot be this property....or HOTWIRE have made an error. Are there any other 31/2* properties in scottsdale that have a spa? Many thanks owl36

Thank you for your advice. I had forgotten about the Radisson. I gather it also has mixed reviews. Would it still be possible to get this property on Hotwire as the is no availability directly via radisson.com nor Expedia, Hotels.com or Travelocity? And thank you for the tip regarding the hotwire cookies. Helps explain some of the discrepancies I have found when changing dates. owl36

Any help working out this property would be most appreciated. I do not think that we have seen it yet. 3.5* N Scottsdale - Best Value 4/4 to 4/8 $85 Restaurant(s), Pool(s), Fitness Center, Spa Services, High-Speed Internet Access, Tennis Nearby, Business Center, Laundry Facilities (self-service). I have been trying for the last 6 weeks on priceline up to $90 in the North Phoenix zone (Pointe Hiltons) and Tempe (Buttes) but no bite. Last week availability decreased sharply for the Friday night. I suspect that the Scottsdale Plaza is available at around $75, but reviewers have not been kind about this property. Thank you for your help and of course I will keep the board updated whether I use Hotwire or Priceline. owl36
