riceforthesol Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 There is a hotel currently showing for Sept 21-25 that is 2 Stars for $59/nt, it shows a shuttle, comp breakfast, pool, business center, and internet. Could this be the new Holiday Inn Express in American Canyon? Link to comment
Colfax Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 My best guess is this is the Best Western Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo; NOT the new Holiday Inn Express in American Canyon.The TripAdvisor stats (3.5/3, 40+ reviews) match the Best Western. The HIE only has 3 reviews posted since it's an almost new hotel. And HOTWIRE usually rates HIE's 2.5* or 3*. I'd be very surprised if Hotwire rated a newly built Holiday Inn Express as 2*, which is their lowest possible rating.The one piece of this that puzzles me is the Shuttle icon. I can't find mention of an airport shuttle on Best Western's website. All the hotels in this zone are about 30-35 miles from the nearest airport. At that distance it would be unusual for any of them to have an airport shuttle. If you purchase please use this HOTWIRE link and let us know what this turns out to be. Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 There is a Napa County Airport 7.5 miles away, but also keep in mind that while the vast majority of the time the Shuttle icon indicates that the hotel has a shuttle, it could also mean that a shuttle is available, and run by a private company which stops at the hotel (as well as other hotels) and charges a fee. (which would make just about every hotel in the area covered by the shuttle service company eligible to show the Shuttle icon :) )Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

Gallus50 Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Is the shuttle always for an airport? Perhaps it goes to the theme park or to Napa/Wine Country? Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 HOTWIRE currently defines the shuttle icon as:Airport Shuttle<amenity names only please... not descriptions> Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
