gab2008 Posted April 13, 2010 Report Posted April 13, 2010 Hi,Am new to the site. Been scanning the boards and doing repeated searches on Hotwire for a 4* hotel on the South Strip 4/25-4/30. Needs to be close to the Mandalay (which has sold out rooms). Only one property fits the bill, but I am wary that it is Luxor which I am trying to avoid. Although there has been a recent Hotwire post for 4* MGM and the Hotel list shows Luxor as 3.5*, recent Priceline 4* South Strip wins have all been for Luxor...?! Are the star ratings different between the 2 sites? Hotwire amenities lists the following:Casino Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center High-speed Internet Access Golf Nearby Tennis Nearby Spa Services *Recommended in 85% of customer reviews I was about to book this Hotwire hotel hoping it is indeed MGM, but thought I would doublecheck with this forum first. Just wanted to be sure it is NOT Luxor.Thanks for any help.Gab2008
yellowdog Posted April 13, 2010 Report Posted April 13, 2010 Welcome to BetterBidding :) PRICELINE and HOTWIRE use diffrent star ratings so you cant compare them.Best guess for this property would be MGM.Please use the site's HOTWIRE link to start your purchase, and let us know how it goes or if you need any additional help with your stay.Yellowdog.PS. Please follow-up this thread with whatever you end up doing, even if you chose to book direct, cancell your trip, etc.
