dostalrm Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 I'm new to Hotwire ... I've heard good stories, but I'm not a gambler by any means. On Hotwire, I found a Boston Back Bay/Copley Square area hotel ... 3.5* for $104/ntAmenities include:Bed Choice ($109/nt for queen, $116 for two doubles, $112 for king)Non-smokingFitness centerSwimming poolRestaurantBusiness centerHigh-speed Internet accessRating is 95%Travel dates are 8/3/11 to 8/6/11 ... Which hotel is it??
AaronJB Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Welcome to Betterbidding. :)HOTWIRE is a good idea for a first step into discount hotels, as it's less opaque than PRICELINE.The Hilton Back Bay and Sheraton Back Bay have both been reported with this amenity set; I'd lean towards the Sheraton, but it could be either.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
dostalrm Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Posted March 4, 2011 Just booked last night for Aug. 3-6 at $110/nt for a king room. Amenities include:Non-smokingSwimming poolFitness centerRestaurantBusiness centerInternetGives you choice of bed. Lowest was $102 ($107 queen)First time using Hotwire ... won't be the last, especially because of this site, which really helped instill confidence in our "adventurous" purchase. We'll be using Hotwire in conjunction with this site. We've saved so much money ($239/nt direct through Sheraton). The other hotel we were looking at ... cheapest one we found in the area ... was $139/nt ... would have cost us $477 with tax ... and it was by no means a 3.5* hotel.We're uber excited!
AaronJB Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 Congrats on your success. :)Awesome deal for this Sheraton property, and glad you're excited about your stay!Thank you for sharing your win and using the site's HOTWIRE link.Enjoy your stay.
