Hotwire Hotel: 3.5* Madison (State Capitol - University - Central) Concourse Hotel and Governors Club

[emandjh]

Looking at 3.5 university downtown hotel in Madison for one night Nov. 19-20

I see one available for 67$ which includes SMOKE FREE and AIRPORT SHUTTLE as well as the usual business ctr, pool, internet and fitness and restuarant.

We don't want the Sheraton. And airport shuttle isn't listed in the amenitites on your hotel list. So are we safe thinking it is the Concourse? Your opinion?

From the information i could gather, the Sheraton would be possible, but certainly not my most likely guess. From what i can tell the Sheraton does not offer an airport shuttle (only a shuttle within a 3 mile radius which i don't think this hotel is wtihin 3 miles of the aiport). However, the Shuttle icon also means "Shuttle available for a fee" in which case just about any hotel which has a 3rd part shared van service stop at their hotel is eligible for this icon... fortunately most do not use it in this manner.

With the above noted, the Madison Concourse would be a likely candidate, but there could be others as well... the Doubletree appears to fit this amenity description as well.

Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

This IS a tough one. We don't mind the Doubletree...usually a 3 star however. Can't decide if we should take the lure. We really don't want the Sheraton. My feeling is at $67 that it is a bit more than the Sheraton goes...and I'm not sure that hotel would get the 90% approval. Will let you know what we decide.

My husband just bought this 3.5 star in Madison. We DID get the Concourse YAY!

After chcking trip advisor to make sure it got 4 and a half "circles" (per hotwire) we grabbed it. (The Sheraton only got 4 circles.) Too, after seeing other posters getting the Sheraton for 45$ or so, figured this had to be the Concourse which generally runs more.

The usual amenites (bus. ctr, internet, pool, restaurant) also included Airport shuttle and Smoke free.

Saved 46%

Congratulations on your success!

Nice to see you received one of the hotels you were hoping for, and more importantly, avoiding the hotel you didn't want. Glad you're pleased with the results and looking forward to your trip.
