Hotwire Hotel: Different Options for 2 Rooms Vs. 1 Room (Hotwire)

[MCDForm]

Hello, I'm trying to book two rooms in Vegas using HOTWIRE and I get different options if I select 1 room or two rooms. I like the options better if I select one room but I'm scared that if I book one room at a time that I will get two different hotels. Is there anyway to get the same options using two rooms.

Example:

2 Nights - 1 Room

Results: 5 Star - South Strip - $84

2 Nights - 2 Rooms

Results: 5 Star - South Strip - $99 (also in a hotel I don't like).

Thanks

Welcome to BetterBidding :)

Try with alternate your search. Search 2 rooms and 3 adults, 2 adults + 1 child etc and see if you get a diffrent result.

PS. Please follow-up this thread with whatever you ended up doing for the stay (even if you chose to book direct, cancelled your stay, etc)

What hotel do you believe appears when searching for 1 room and that you do want... what hotel do you believe is appearing for 2 rooms that you don't want? Do you need more than double occupancy in either room?

Thanks for the replies.

We only need 2 adults per room.

It actually looked like one was Vdara and the other was Aria (which we preferred).

It looked that way because it didn't list Casino in the amenities and stated non-smoking in the amenities when booking 2 rooms but listed Casino when booking 1 room. This was under 5 Star south Strip.

I tried all the combinations and nothing seemed to work.

For right now I got a really good deal on Bellagio (refundable) for 130 after tax. I'm going to keep plugging away at hotwire though.

Just want to give you guys some information

I had the same situation as MCDForm. Tried to book 2 rooms, it only showed "Vdara" available, but if I searched one room on the same date, then Hotwire will have "Aria" available.

Since some one in our group smokes, so we would prefer to stay @ Aria.

Here is what we did. We took the risk and used two computers booking one room on each computer, we processed till the last step, then we hit the "submit" at the same time.

This did work for us, We got two rooms at Aria on the same date.

Alex689,

Please post your wins as a NEW TOPIC so that others will be aware of and benefit from your information.

Also, as info for anyone else trying the same approach in the future, this is not foolproof, as others have tried to do this in the past... sometimes it works, other times one purchase goes thru and the second (by a split second) gets a message that the offering is no longer available.
