king10208 Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 Looking at somewhere to stay for the Blues game tomorrow night with a buddy.Big fan of this site, finally registered. I see the below description by clicking on your HOTWIRE link and filling in the blanks:Amenities:Fitness Center, Restaurant(s), Business Center, High-Speed Internet AccessRecommended:In 85% of Hotwire customer reviews. Does anyone have an idea? I am likely going to buy within a couple of hours regardless, but it's always fun to guess. I'm hoping for the Hyatt downtown, but I suppose anything near Scottrade that isn't the Millenium or other old, tiny-roomed antiquity will suffice.Thanks in advance,-DMK Link to comment
AaronJB Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 Welcome to Betterbidding. :)This is a possible match for the Hilton Downtown, Hilton at the Ballpark or Omni Majestic - all three have been seen with this amenity set previously.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

king10208 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 I see. Can you comment on how this may compare to HW's other offering at 3.5* / $63:---Amenities:Smoke Free Rooms, Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business CenterRecommended:In 90% of Hotwire customer reviews. ---If that is the Drury down there by the Arch, I'd sure pull the trigger on it instead (their free snacks / drinks are handy, lol).thanks again for your time and experience,-dmk Link to comment
king10208 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 Hah, and while I after I hit "Reply" and then refreshed the HW page, I see this guy come up at 3* / $52:---Amenities:Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), High-Speed Internet Access Recommended:In 90% of Hotwire customer reviews. ---Again, TIA for your time,-dmk Link to comment
AaronJB Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 Are you also seeing "internet" with the 3.5*?The 3* has not yet been ID'd/reported to the board; I'm guessing it may be a new amenity set for the Millennium or, more likely the Holiday Inn.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

king10208 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 I was not.That said, I've now gone ahead and booked the HW 4-star that somehow dropped from $61 to $60 while this thread has been discussed. Go figure.It turned out to be...Hyatt Regency St. Louis at the Arch315 Chestnut St, Saint Louis, MO, 631024-star Hotel in Downtown St. LouisThis Hotel features the following amenities:Fitness CenterGuests have access to exercise equipment; an additional charge may apply.Restaurant(s)Property offers at least one restaurant on the premises; hours and days of operation may vary.Business CenterGuests have access to business equipment and services; an additional charge may apply.High-Speed Internet AccessGuestrooms are equipped with high-speed Internet access; an extra charge may apply. Not too shabby for $60, when hotel.com wants $79 for the same thing. Thanks again to everyone responding, and best of luck to everyone booking.-dmk Link to comment

king10208 Posted February 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 The stay was quite nice. As others have mentioned, parking just a block north of the hotel (Mansion House garage) is the way to go. Weekend rates were $3/night instead of H's options of $20-$36 self / valet. Room was lovely, although no Arch view. C'est la vie, we weren't in there very long anyway. We walked to Scottrade to see the Blues play, and it was a nice, brisk, 10-15 minute walk. Easy walk to Laclede's landing, and right there by a Metrolink stop as well. Thanks again to this forum - what a terrific resource. Link to comment
