OK
"4)" is option four, not a 4 star. It's a 5 star.
Thanks for the quick response.
I'd love to get the Cosmo or the Mandarin (if that's even possible...)
See my edits underlined above.
I'm trying to get The Cosmopolitan...

So both the hotels I put up went up in price substantially on Priceline Express and on Hotwire so I just grabbed this at $202 per night.

There were three options. One (for $138) was "Suite Of Roses" which only Hotel Rose offers so I figured it must be it - and Bingo.
Thanks fellas for all your help. (and yes I used the PRICELINE QuickQuote)
This listing has not yet been ID'd/reported to the board. I'd guess a new amenity set for the Best Western Inn at the Meadows or the Red Lion at the Quay would be possibilities, but it may be something else not yet reported to the board.
Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
Thanks. I'm not taking any risks :)

I ended up with The Roosevelt.
I wanted it because of the location.
I searched for 1 adult 1 night.
Thanks for your help.
PS
1) How do I add photos to the board? If I add a link using "insert photo" I get it removed due to hotlinking.
2) Have you ever seen The Gotham Hotel NY on Hotwire or Priceline?
Got it... (and for the future, how come I can't link photos to posts? better yet, how DO I add a photo if not via link?)

Thanks for your reply.
See screenshot of the page I searched using the tool on this page and clicking on the green button (more of a thumbs up symbol)
<link removed>
I tried adding the picture by putting in the link via "insert image" but I got the "do not hotlink" message. (how else can I add a photo? I don't see an upload option)

Think it's THE ROOSEVELT?
Thanks!
Yeah, a company like HOTWIRE is bound to have small print covering everything possible.
What irks me most though is the fact that they really fooled me. Regardless of the hotel outcome I was always sure there's some sort of discount by using Hotwire. Being more expensive then the actual hotel website is a new low (or high...)
02/10 - 02/11
These are the amenities:
Free Internet
Smoke Free Rooms
Restaurant(s)
Business Center
Internet access
Accessible for the blind
Accessible for the deaf
Accessible path of travel
In-room accessibility
Wheelchair accessible
Accessible bathroom
Roll-in shower
And here's why it's a scam.
This is the super deal from Hotwire "reg $144"
Rate per night: $96.00
Nights:1
Rooms:1
Taxes:$11.02
Occupancy tax:$8.30
Fees:$11.24
Subtotal:$126.56
Trip total:$126.56
But when I went to the Hotel's website I found this:
Distrikt Hotel Website
Arrival:2/10/2014
Departure:2/11/2014
Length of Stay:1 Night
Room 1:Grandview Doubles
Guests:1 Adult, 0 Children
Best Available Rate:103.55 USD
Subtotal:103.55 USD
Taxes & Fees:18.77 USD
Estimated Total Cost:122.32 USD
Hotwire has a 'Low Price Guarantee' but since their rate is technically $96 (although they make up for it in the mysterious "fees" which even the hotel doesn't charge) and the hotel's rate is $103.55 even if the grand total from the hotel website is lower, there's no 'Guarantee' - just a plain old rip-off.
Alright... I used the link to go to PRICELINE.com, bid $90 for 4* in Hollywood = rejected. Added Santa Monica / Marina Del Rey and bid $105 won the W Hollywood!
Thanks once again for this great board!
OK, Since I'm considering this hotel I did some research and there is a parking lot right around the corner on 1634 Argyle Avenue called Sunshine Auto Park. The prices thre are much cheaper but a bit confusing because they count a day from 12pm so if you park at night and leave after 12pm the next day you end up paying $20 plus an extra $10 but if you leave before 12pm it's only $20.
You can call and get the details, if you'd like. (213) 617-7275
Thanks!
I'll keep the board posted!
Hi folks
I see that the W Hollywoood is offering rooms at great prices via Hotwire and Priceline. (there is currently a "super savings" of $131 per night on Hotwire for a hotel that matches the description of a recent W win and I see somebod scored a $105 on Priceline.
I'm looking to get this hotel at the best price, any tips as to how I can bid properly on Priceline?
My dates are 1/21 - 1/24
Thanks in advance.
There are currently four 4* ated hotels on Priceline in the Hollywood area. The W Hollywood, Renaissance, Hollywood Roosvelt and Redbury. I prefer the W. :)
Just be aware that MANDATORY valet parking is $38 per day.
ok
I took a gamble with PRICELINE (using the above link) and put in $50 for a 3* property in Dulles North - Herndon - Reston.
I was shocked when I actually won. It's the Courtyard by Marriott Herndon Reston.
I took two rooms, grand total for both rooms, after taxes $119
Thanks for all your help.
This board is really great!!!
