I'm not seeing this 5* hotel on a current HOTWIRE search for your dates, but if you are, my best guess for this one would be the Halekulani.

In bidding on a 5* hotel in Waikiki beach area, the following notice was seen on the page prior to submitting.

"If priceline accepts your price, priceline will book your reservation in a property with an equal or higher star level than you requested. Please note it is possible that the hotel you are booked in could be a Resort, which will meet or exceed the minimum qualifications of the star level you initially requested."

Has anyone opted for a 5* property and been "upgraded" to a resort on Priceline?

The PRICELINE hierarchy was last reported to be (and I'm guessing remains):

5*

Resort

4*

3.5*

3*

2.5*

2*

1*
