thereuare Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 aprilmay18,Welcome to BetterBidding!Please start by reading your messages and clicking each of these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links.At this point the OP has not yet purchased either of the properties above, s/he is asking for help identifying each.If you'd like help with an upcoming stay please start a NEW TOPIC.Thanks.mt1023,Best guess for the 5* is the Fairmont or the Inter-Continental Montelucia. HOWEVER, one 'red flag' that i have for either of these is that i believe both charge a resort fee, and with this HOTWIRE offer there is no mention of any resort fee, so i'm not as confident as i would like in either of these guesses.If you're willing to pay $126/nite i think you can increase your chances of receiving the Montelucia, should this be a property you're trying to target.For the 4* property, if you click the 'See all' link do you see more amenities that what you've included above?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

mt1023 Posted May 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 thereuare there is a resort fee for the 5 star, I forgot to add that. For the 4 star that is all the amenities that are listed. Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 thereuare there is a resort fee for the 5 star, I forgot to add that.The 5* appearing on HOTWIRE when i search for your dates doesn't show a Resort fee... how much is the fee listed when you search HOTWIRE for your dates? (are you searching for more than one room or for something other than the default 2adults/0children?)For the 4* my guess is the Talking Stick Resort.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Thanks for the help I will update once we decide which one to go for. Link to comment
mt1023 Posted May 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 I was thinking of maybe trying Priceline for the 4 star North Scottsdale for our stat of 6/16-6/17, but I see that under the Priceline North Scottsdale hotel list for 4* it lists the Westin and the The Saguaro, I would love to get the Westin, but is The Saguaro really in the North Scottsdale bidding zone? I mean the address of the hotel would put it in the Scottsdale bidding zone. Link to comment
