Priceline Hotel: South beach hotel - need your help

[leandre]

Hi there... can anyone help me on a futur bid for a hotel in SOBE ? (nov 20 till nov 27 approx)

I've checked on Hotwire, and they proposed me a 4 stars boutique Hotel for approx 81 a night (can't believe how cheap it is !) But looking at the description of the hotel, there is no swimming pool. It shows boutique hotel , restaurant and near beach logos..( not a lot for a 4 stars, what do you think ?)

Do you think it will be a real 4 stars ??

I'm wondering if it's not the BLUE Moon Hotel...but there is a pool in that one..

Any help for good deal on south beal is welcome.

Welcome to BetterBidding!

Best guess would be the Blue Moon, which has been reported both with and witout a pool icon. From what i have heard about the property it is not a 'true' 4 star hotel... and personally i try to avoid unknown 'boutique' hotels as they can be almost anything in terms of quality (and are often small independents with little/no recourse if there is a problem).

Assuming this is not what you're looking for, what is your budget for this trip?

I just came back from SoBe. I have no idea if that is the Blue Moon but if it is, $81 is still a good price.

SoBe is very expensive. We bid $90 4* for our trip 5/19-23 and got the Marriott. The rack rate for our room (listed on the door) was $479/night. The marriott website showed lowest rates of $279 when I did a search after I got the accepting bid.

After being down there, $81 for a boutique is a decent price regardless of a pool.
