bb_613 Posted June 26, 2005 Report Posted June 26, 2005 I'm new here so I hope this is the right place to post this question. Hotwire has a 3* hotel in the Vancouver (Entertainment District) with "restaurant, pool, gym, and laundry". It looks to be a great price ($53) for the time that I want but I'm not sure which hotel it is. The Betterbidding list doesn't include it. Has anyone else bought this hotel? Or can someone help me figure out which one it is? I notice that on the Priceline list on Betterbidding there are a few 3*'s. Do the two share hotels sometimes?Thanks!BB_613

thereuare Posted June 26, 2005 Report Posted June 26, 2005 If you look in the second post of the HOTWIRE HOTEL LIST you will see that this is a match for the Holiday Inn, so that would be our best guess.

bb_613 Posted June 26, 2005 Author Report Posted June 26, 2005 Sorry about that. I didn't scroll down far enough. I went back to Hotwire only to find that the $53 3* I wrote about here was gone. So, I ended up using Priceline. I bid $40 for a 3* in Vancouver and guess what --> I got it --> The Holiday Inn Downtown. So, I guess it all works out. I'll post the details on the Priceline thread.

bb_613 Posted June 26, 2005 Author Report Posted June 26, 2005 Vancouver Downtown:1. Bid $52 for 4* -- Reply: Permission to bid again if I bid $15 more2. Added zone (Burnaby) and bid again for a 4* this time at $60 -- Reply: Permission to bid again if I bid $17 more3. Bid $40 for Vancouver (Downtown) only -- added 3* hotel class -- AcceptedHoliday Inn DowntownCheck- In Date: Thu, Jun 30, 2005Check-Out Date: Fri, Jul 1, 2005Subtotal: $40.00 (US dollars)Taxes & Service Fees:$11.56 (US dollars)Total Charges: $51.56 (US dollars)NOTE: It is likely that this same hotel was on Hotwire for $53. While I was trying to figure out which hotel it was (with the help of Betterbidding), the hotel was not available anymore on Hotwire. So, I went to Priceline and ended up with it anyway.
