Hotwire Hotel: HELP 2* Hotwire "hot Rate"

[ferhanture]

I see that HOTWIRE has a $109+tax offer for Portland, OR Downtown region (w/o Convention center) from 8/12 to 8/16. I wanted to see which 2* hotels are within HOTWIRE, but none were available for that time period. How is that possible?

I asked customer service, but they did not give me a satisfying answer (as expected). I couldn't find any information on betterbidding either about 2* Portland downtown hotels on HOTWIRE.

Can anyone help? Thanks...

Welcome to Betterbidding.

Inventory on the discount side does differ from the retail side, so the retail side does vary from the discount side.

Please confirm the zone and full list of amenities showing with the listing. You can find the list of hotels reported to the board here: Hotwire Hotel List.

Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

Thanks... That link does not have any 2* hotels in the Portland Downtown region, and that's why I'm asking if anybody has any experience with 2* hotels shown on Hotwire deals.

[AaronJB]

The list provides the hotels that have been reported to the board - unfortunately, no hotels have been reported to the board (at least as of this point) at the 2* level in this zone.

However, please provide the full details of the listing (star rating, city, zone, dates, room rate per nite, and amenities hot.wrie associated with the property) and we can take a look and try to ID or at least offer thoughts/guesses.

Unfortunately this property has not yet been reported to the board, and with just these two amenities, somewhat common for most 2* hotels, i don't think we'll be able to add any insight into this one.

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

Let us know whatever you decide to do for this stay or if we can be of further help.

The offer went down to 109/night and I also learned that this hotel was recommended in 80 % of Hotwire customer reviews. Would that help find out the name?

Thanks!

Unfortunately, the review % is not an indicator of a particular property.
