Hotwire Hotel: Help identifying a 3* hotel on Hotwire

[zitsky]

I'm looking to book a hotel in San Juan from 12/24 to 12/27 using Hotwire. When I do a search, I have the option for a 3* hotel. The amenities are pretty slim. They are:

*Smoke Free Rooms

*Pool(s)

Does anyone have an idea what hotel this could be? I know some folks have gotten the Doubletree, but this amenity list doesn't seem to match it.

OK. I think I've answered my own question. From searching the forum it looks like this 3* could be Le Consulat Hotel. It doesn't look very attractive when I research it on Google. I think I'll pass. Right now Hotwire is not offering a 4* hotel for the dates I'm staying. I've already tried Priceline but I didn't bid high enough. I may try PRICELINE again in a few days.

Looks like I may have to pay full price for a hotel there!

I was told by the site's host that his best guess for those parameters was for Le Consulat; I agree with you that I wouldn't stay there after I read the reviews at Trip Advisor. I ended up using this site's link to HOTWIRE and in my search I was given the option of a 3.5* and the hotel was the Sheraton Hotel and Casino in Old San Juan for an average price of $139.00 per night. For my Sat-Tue stay in February it was more expensive for Sat, but then was $139.00 for the rest of the nights; my bill was about 495.00 for 3 nights and I am very happy with the location. Hope this is helpful, here is a link to my hotwire hotel purchase. Kind regards, Laurie

zitsky,

How high have you bid on PRICELINE and for what star level?

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
