Hotwire Hotel: 5* Vancouver (Downtown West) Pan Pacfic

[sthomasa]

I always use the BB link. This time I'm having a problem.

At over winning bids on Priceline, I'm looking at hotwire offer.

Anyone nail this one? I stayed at the Pan Pacific and if I was sure, price is high but great hotel.

5-star Hotel in Downtown Vancouver West

This Hotel features the following amenities:

Fitness Center

Pool(s)

Restaurant(s)

Business Center

High-Speed Internet Access

Spa Services

Also does bidding for two rooms make the computer think "Ha ha! A family. Higher price."

Also,

When I bid for one room, I have more choices than when I bid for two rooms.

Anyone every use two computers and two user accounts to close two rooms at the same time? I doubt if there is only ONE room avaiable?

I doubt if there is only ONE room avaiable?

Don't be so sure... we have seen similar situations where there was indeed only one room available. As well, we have seen where the first room is purchased and then there the was no problem booking a second room.

Anyone every use two computers and two user accounts to close two rooms at the same time?

There is no point in using two computers... if there is only one room available, the same hotel will appear on a search on each computer (since there is inventory of '1' showing when each search is made). If you then try to purchase both 'simultaneously' one will go thru and the other will come back as 'no longer available'.

Couldn't get options on two nights for two rooms.

5* Vancouver (Downtown West) Pan Pacific , $133 ... two rooms 6-15-11 to 6/16/11

I needed two nights but was offered the second night for 308.00

Now trying to get the second night at a better price.

Thanks! I used the link.

Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to start your purchases and searches.

I was going for the 5* condo but moving even a half mile is such a hassle. I was able to get second night at over double... 270.00 with an AAA discount and cancellation rights.

Can the "customer satifaction" %s be relied on to determine hotel?

The Pan Pacific has 90% while the 5* one being shown now says, "Still gathering comments" I'm assumign that was the Sutton...the other 5*

Can the "customer satifaction" %s be relied on to determine hotel?

No... we have seen this number change slightly from search-to-search and even disappear entirely, reverting to the 'still gathering' message, all for the same hotel.
