vickye Posted September 5, 2012 Report Posted September 5, 2012 Hi guys,I'm looking into reserving a room in Pittsburgh for the night of 9/22 and hotwire has one 4* offering downtown at $163 with the following amenities: Fitness Center, Restaurant(s), Business Center, High-Speed Internet Access, Accessible for the deaf, Free Internet , Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible bathroom, Handicapped parking, Roll-in showerand a 95% tripadvisor rating. Any ideas if it's the Westin without the Pool amenity, or the Renaissance or Omni without the Spa amenity?Also, any ideas how much a priceline bid for the same kind of deal might be, if hotwire is showing at $163?Any help gratefully received :)

thereuare Posted September 6, 2012 Report Posted September 6, 2012 My best guess would be a new amenity set for the Omni... the Renaissance would be a second guess, but i'm doubtful it's the Westin.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.EDIT TO ADD: the Fairmont could be a possibility as well Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
vickye Posted September 7, 2012 Author Report Posted September 7, 2012 Thanks for the info - I'm going to think about it for a bit and will update when I book something!
vickye Posted September 19, 2012 Author Report Posted September 19, 2012 Since it was a little last minute and the rack rate was $249, I began with a $100 bid and was accepted immediately. Wish I had started off lower!! Used the boards price line link of course. Thanks for the info as always!
vickye Posted September 19, 2012 Author Report Posted September 19, 2012 So I made a PRICELINE bid for the same date, location and star level using the board's links, and for $100 got the Omni. Wish I had rechecked HOTWIRE again before making the bid as I just noticed this same amenity set is available now for $109. Oh well.
AaronJB Posted September 19, 2012 Report Posted September 19, 2012 Congrats on your success. :)Still definitely a very nice win for this historic property - hope you are looking forward to your stay.Thank you for sharing your win and using the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches.Enjoy your stay.
