chw Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 Booked another hotel for a friend of mine, already envious that I got him a better priceline deal than i did for myself . Went to HOTWIRE and saw this property with the following amenities listed:Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business Center, Laundry Facilities, High-Speed Internet AccessFrom the amenities I guessed it would be the Westin, but it turned out to be the W. Darn - once again a very nice hotel for him! ;-) My system showed the price in Euros; given the current exchange rate the room costs ~$104 per night. Including taxes and fees I paid ~$243 for two nights.Used the forum's HOTWIRE search box to start my purchase. Link to comment

chw Posted August 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 Click this HOTWIRE link and look on the top right of the page that loads... do you see the dropdown box to change the currency?thank you, that seems to work. Of course, on my machine I always get the USD site anyway. BTW, the exchange rate is horrible. Even with credit card fees the USD fares are much better. Link to comment
