Hotwire Hotel: 3.5* Newark (Jersey City) Hyatt Regency Hudson

[506canuck]

Got this yesterday for $67 plus $15.95 fees. As I had hoped it was the Hyatt Jersey City on the Hudson where I stayed with priceline in December. it is a great hotel and very convenient to Manhatten with the PATH train. I also was able to use the discount code mentioned elsewhere(giftcard06) saving another $10. Thanks for all your help-much appreciated. It was my first Hotwire experience and while I am happy with the result it did not go too well. I used the link you mention but after trying my offer about 10 times I called Hotwire for help. I have a Canadian address and I kept getting error messages re the phone number & zip code. It took the guy at Hotwire a while to figure it out too but he was vague as to what the problem was. Unfortunately I expect I will have the same problem if I use Hotwire again. Any Canadians with similar experience?

I assume it has something to do with area code on the phone number, zip code, address, etc.

I've heard of no reports of Canadians using HOTWIRE.

Enjoy your stay at the Hyatt... although yo have quite a ways to wait!

I've used Hotwire successfully with a Canadian address, phone number, and credit card and through the SavingsBarn.com link. It might be a problem with you having added dashes to the phone number or having put a 1 in front (just speculating, as who knows). When you go through the booking process I think there's a place for Canadians to click so you get the appropriate fields on the form, but I haven't done it lately.

I know of two Canadians who used Hotwire without a problem.
