Priceline Hotel: 4* San Antonio (Downtown-Riverwalk) Omni La Mansion Del Rio

[ktis]

Looking at four options for Jan 11-14, 2011.

All San Antonio Riverwalk, North or South according to Hotwire...

There are two options for Riverwalk North:

A four star option for $99 and a three star option for $69

Similarly for Riverwalk South:

A four star option for $132 and a three star option for $69

Any help identifying these properties would be immensely appreciated!

Kind thanks

Two quick cents and wondering what you come up with...

The 4-star North property might be the Sheraton Gunter (?) however at $20/night more expensive than others have concluded over X-Mas dates (per other thread on Riverfront options)... Does that make sense or could it be another facility?

More confident projection on the 4-star South Riverfront property, esp. considering the "Spa" feature: The Contessa... no?

However, again, Hotwire prices do not appear comparable to the other dates' prices others have posted herein... could it be that Jan 11-14 is such a distinct week? there's a big discrepancy on the Contessa of appx $50 b't earlier "hits/wins" and this Jan date... Recommendations? Pull the trigger on these or endeavor more... and clarifications on the 3-star ones as well might ease the decision-making on our end!

Overall, is it better to wait a few more days to see if they drop or as we pass the holidays they will actually increase from your experience?

Thanks again everyone!

Based upon a recent win by another user, i'd guess the 4* Riverwalk North property is the Omni more so than the Sheraton.

Best guess for the others:

4* Riverwalk South - Hotel Contessa OR Marriott Plaza

3* Riverwalk North - The Crockett Hotel

3* Riverwalk South - Hyatt Place Downtown-Riverwalk

Quick word of gratitude for the absolutely impeccable assistance today, impressive follow-through!

Should conclude ASAP, will report the results of course...

Thanks to everyone...

OK, folks one more to plug-in, here's the conclusion:

Priceline -- after all, and pls lmk if we need to move this to a different forum -- successful bid @ $85/night for this four-star property:

Omni La Mansion Del Rio

I am not sure if one can land a bid at $80 (the lowest Priceline allows you to bid for 4-stars at that locale and date), but worth a few tries.

It is definitely the lowest I could find after quite some time, and Hotwire still gives a 4-star site at $99...

Looks good.

Thanks for the solid service and keep up the deals hunt!
