Hotwire Hotel: 4* DC (Dupont Circle-Embassy Row) Hilton Washington and Towers

[LWS-NYC]

I tried on PRICELINE for a 4* hotel at $80- starting with Georgetown, and rebid at , 85, 90, 95 and 100 adding Dupont Cirlce, Convention Center, DC Northeast and Mt. Vernon and got nothing. I saw a 4* on HOTWIRE for $100 and thinking it was The Dupont Hotel decided I would try it. The actual Hotel was the Washington Hilton. Not sure if it is a 4* but it should be fine for the night and regular prices for this date appear to be extremely high.

The amenities shown on Hotwire were:

Fitness Center,Restaurant(s),Business Center,High-Speed Internet Access

What was surprising was that the hotel actually has a number of other amenities, including a pool

Thanks for the follow-up!

It's not uncommon for some hotels to use multiple amenity combinations for their hotel... this property is seen sometimes with a pool, sometimes with out. The hotel needs to have all the amenities shown... but doesn't need to show all the amenities they have. The most common example i give is that the majority of hotels (in the US) now offer Hi-Speed Internet, yet you'll still see many properties which don't show this icon.

Have a great trip.
