Priceline Hotel: 4* Atlanta (Perimeter) Atlanta Perimeter Hotel and Suites

[mak136]

Two curious questions, one of which probably has been asked many times.

I'm looking at Atlanta-Perimeter for 9/22-25. It looks like i have a 4* and 3 1/2* option of likely Crowne Plaza, or W Hotel, or another one I'm failing to recall (Westin?).

Can Crowne Plaza show up as an option for both 4* and 3 1/2*

And, 2nd question...how far in advance would a hotel opt to list on Hotwire?

I was hoping a "suite" hotel would be listed being either Embassy Suites (would be perfect) or Hilton Suites.

Thanks for your time!

9/22-9/25 Atlanta Perimeter choices:

2 rooms (3 adults)

4* ($56) - "Bed choice", fitness, pool, restaurant, high speed. 70% recommended

3 1/2* ($65) - non smoking, fitness, pool, restaurant, high speed. 80% recommended

3* ($54) - fitness, pool, business, laundry, high speed.

Was hoping a "suite" hotel would be listed at 3 1/2 or 4* - hoping for Embassy Suites because of a brunch we have to attend that weekend there.

At this point, I would probably opt for 4* due to price and quality. Any ideas what these could be?

Also wondering whether since I am still over 2 months away, that I should hold off and see what else prevails?

Thanks!

Ah now I understand...I kept thinking you meant Orlando in your prior posting "thereyouare". Sorry about that!!! I clearly was confused. So dumb. :)

For Atlanta, I decided to bid on Priceline since I received a $8/night bonus email. I thought I posted that here.

I will post on the Priceline section now.

Ended up with 4* Atlanta Perimeter Hotel & Suites at $48 a night (plus $5 bonus).

I didn't expect alot from the hotel, so based on that, we all enjoyed it...including 2 80yr old couples that were traveling with me. Granted it's a bit worn on the edges, but the service was great.

Bidding only for 4star hotels, I started with $45 and increased with free bid to $48...Accepted

Sept 23 for 2 nights

Offer Price:

avg. per room, per night $48.00 (plus $5 bonus per night/room)

Rooms: 3

Nights: 2

Travel Insurance: $30.00

Room Subtotal: $318.00

Taxes & Fees: $58.56

Hotel turned out to be decent for the most part. Rooms were clean, do not look closely under the mattress cover..don't say I didn't warn you. Every room has a balcony. The staff service was excellent!

The restaurant however was a bust for breakfast. Awful service and out of your basic bagels at 8am.

GREAT location across from Perimeter Mall, very easy to walk to.

Congrats on your success. :)

Glad to hear that the stay at this former W property worked out mostly okay.
