mikech Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 :) Was trying to get the Loews Resort on South Beach and ended up with the Sagamore Hotel for $160 a night for 3 rooms 6/20-6/22. I am not too thrilled as this place would have never been my choice, not to mention it is a 3.5 star hotel and not really a resort imho. Called Priceline and questioned the resort catagory and they told me the Hotel will contact me within 72 hours. Oh well, maybe it will be nice who know's. I could have booked this directly for the same price, my previous bid of $153 was rejected? Seems to have decent reviews on tripadvisor.com anyway. Please add this one to the list so others do not make the same mistake, or non mistake? If anyone is familiar with this property, please let me know. Link to comment

taraandsean Posted June 2, 2005 Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 The sagamore is a great hotel on the beach and worth every penny. They dont have standard rooms evrything is a suite. Link to comment
mikech Posted June 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 ***UPDATE***Just got off the phone with PL and they have removed the Sagamore Hotel from their South Beach Resort catagory and informed me that if I re-bid at that level, the Sagamore as of now would not come up. The main reason being is that there is not several dining options as a resort is described as on PL. As a matter of fact there is no dining at the hotel for dinner. I must say that I am very impressed with the level of service I received from PL regarding this matter. They refunded my money and I will be staying in a high floor oceanview at the National for $130 a night !! Got this rate by calling the hotel direct 2 times, yesterday they quoted $170 for the same room. Please feel confident in removing the Sagamore from the PL South Beach Resort catagory.Thank You for a great site... Link to comment
