I got lucky and found a friend's place I can stay for the concert, so I don't need a hotel anymore. Thanks for your help anyhow!

What do you think about the other two? Thanks!

Sorry... In my rush, I knew I forgot something :)

Looking to stay in the downtown area for ACL (October 4th thru 6th). Any idea what these two hotels are? Thinking this is the AT&T Hotel & Conference Center @ UT 4* $256 Downtown Austin & Town Lake Free Internet Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center High-Speed Internet Access Accessible for the blind Accessible for the deaf Accessible path of travel In-room accessibility Accessible bathroom Handicapped parking No clue about this one 1* $134 Downtown Austin & Town Lake Free Parking Free Breakfast Pet friendly Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center High-Speed Internet Access Golf Nearby or maybe go north? 3.5* $134 North Austin Free Parking Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center High-Speed Internet Access Accessible for the blind Accessible for the deaf Accessible path of travel In-room accessibility Accessible bathroom Handicapped parking Roll-in shower 3* $105 Arboretum - Mopac Free Parking Indoor pool(s) Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center Laundry Facilities (self-service) Accessible for the blind Accessible for the deaf Accessible path of travel In-room accessibility Accessible bathroom Handicapped parking Roll-in shower

Priceline says I saved 38%. Hotels.com has it on special for $370 (from $529) for the same timeframe. Thanks guys!

Yes, I did purchase and receive the Intercontinental. The room was $204 a night. It is a 4.5 * hotel. Sorry for the confusion. Thanks.

Looks like the 4* TS is the Intercontinental.. While a bit reluctant to stay so close to Times Square, it looks like a good property and an opportunity to catch a show since I'll be in the area. $204 per night ($498.66 for two nights after taxes and fees). The rate on hotels.com is $260 a night. Thanks a lot!

I couldn't determine which one is which and now they've changed again :( What's your best guess on these three? 4.5* MTC Restaurant(s), High-Speed Internet Access, Business Center, Fitness Center Not enough reviews $193 4.5* TS [intercontinental Times Square (maybe Crowne Plaza Hotel, Millenium Broadway, and Hilton Times Square)] Restaurant(s), High-Speed Internet Access, Business Center, Fitness Center Not enough reviews $204 4.5* Downtown / SoHo / Financial District Restaurant(s), High-Speed Internet Access, Business Center, Fitness Center Recommended 90% From $254, now $170 Based on the Hotwire hotel list, my best guess is: 4.5* MTC is Sofitel 4.5* TS is Intercontinental (or can it be Crowne Plaza Hotel, Millenium Broadway, and Hilton Times Square ??) 4.5* Downtown is W Downtown or Tribeca Grand (any clues to which it is?) Thanks!

Looking at the following: 4.5* Downtown / SoHo / Financial District Restaurant(s), High-Speed Internet Access, Business Center, Fitness Center Recommended 90% From $254, now $170 4.5* MTE Restaurant(s), High-Speed Internet Access, Fitness Center, Business Center, Spa Services Recommended 90% From $279, now $191 4.5* TS Restaurant(s), High-Speed Internet Access, Business Center, Fitness Center Not enough reviews $211 4* ESB Boutique Hotel, Business Center Recommended 90% From $216, now $127 4* MTE Restaurant(s), High-Speed Internet Access, Fitness Center, Business Center, Spa Services Recommended 90% From $214, now $145 Any ideas what these hotels are? I'm thinking the first one (4.5* Downtown/ SoHo) is either the W Downtown or Tribeca Grand but am not sure (W Downtown is fully booked according to their website). The 4* ESB is probably the Kitano? Of these, which do you guys recommend the most? Thanks!

I decided on staying at the Intercontinental at the regular rate of $205.85 per night. Factoring in taxi fare, it turns out to be the better deal and more convenient since I would prefer to be in downtown Austin and walking distance from several venues. Thanks again.

Thanks for your help, but neither are exactly what I'm looking for. I decided to book elsewhere. Thanks again!

Sorry about that. Provided follow-up already. Forgot to mention that the dates are 1/21-1/22. Thanks!

Thanks for your help, but my friends decided to stay somewhere else. :(

Thanks!

Turns out it's the Renaissance. I saved 25%. Anyone know if it is this a good hotel? Good location? Thanks for your help!

Whoops.. sorry... 12/10-12/11.. Thought I did use the links from the board. Thanks for your help.

4* has Smoke Free Rooms, Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), High-Speed Internet Access Recommended 85% $93 3.5* has Smoke Free Rooms, Fitness Center, Restaurant(s), Business Center, High-Speed Internet Access Recommended 90% $83 Also, which is in a better location for nightlife? Thanks!

Sorry, I decided to just book through my credit card benefits instead. Good luck (please close this)

*edit* sorry, forgot to mention the dates, 10/7-10/9 (anyone know how to update the title??) First time in LA and not sure exactly where to stay... would like to do some touristy stuff, restaurants, and maybe a little nightlife. Anyone give a recommendation on either of these two hotels?

LOL... I guess it's gone already. That was fast. I preferred the bed choice. I guess I'll stick with theWit. Thank you for your help anyways.

8/19-8/21 4* $152 Bed Choice ($5 extra charge) Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center High-Speed Internet Access Recommended in 85% of Hotwire customer reviews 4.5* $198 Smoke Free Rooms Fitness Center Restaurant(s) Business Center High-Speed Internet Access Recommended in 90% of Hotwire customer reviews And any idea how these two compare to theWit? That's my first choice right now. Thanks as always!

I know that hotwire occasionally let's you pay extra for the right to choose the bed type, but what if you can't select. Is it always random or is there a strategy? (ie. certain brands only use certain types of rooms for hotwire / priceline, etc..) When I travel alone, I get two beds, and when I traveling with someone else, I get one bed. Or do they purposely see two guys and try to give me one bed?!

Sorry about that... I stayed from 7/30-7/31
