AaronJB Posted January 15, 2013 Report Posted January 15, 2013 Welcome to Betterbidding.This would be a possible match for Vdara or Four Seasons.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
Megax Posted January 15, 2013 Author Report Posted January 15, 2013 Aaron,Thanks for the reply. I guess that's why we can't rely solely on what Priceline & Hotwire use for their descriptors, as Priceline do not have Free Parking or Free Internet as amenities listed for Vdara.
AaronJB Posted January 15, 2013 Report Posted January 15, 2013 Happy to help - please let us know what you decide and if you have additional questions.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
Megax Posted January 16, 2013 Author Report Posted January 16, 2013 I have a general question with regards to identifying 4* properties in the Strip South zone.If I were content landing any 4* property in this zone EXCEPT TheHotel, Mandalay Bay & Tropicana, would you expect to be able to get enough information out of the amenities list to tell you that? If so, I'd like to hear about it.Would it be any clearer via Hotwire?Many thanks and look forward to bidding through your links once ready to pull the trigger.
AaronJB Posted January 16, 2013 Report Posted January 16, 2013 There is no way to guarantee or increase the odds of a particular property when using PRICELINE. There is a better chance with HOTWIRE, but still no guarantees - both discount services require flexibility in terms of which hotel you may get.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
Megax Posted January 18, 2013 Author Report Posted January 18, 2013 Our group wants our hotel to have a casino, so it's back to the drawing-board as far as that previous search was concerned.Now looking at PRICELINE with the following criteria: 5-Star; North StripAmenities listed: Indoor or Outdoor Pool, Casino, Restaurant, Fitness Center, Business Center, Guest Score 8/10 or Higher
thereuare Posted January 18, 2013 Report Posted January 18, 2013 Are you also seeing a Free Parking amenity listed?What is the room rate and for how many rooms are you including in your search?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
Megax Posted January 18, 2013 Author Report Posted January 18, 2013 I'm not actually using PRICELINE EXPRESS, I'm using PRICELINE's Name Your Own Price feature via your link.Free parking is NOT listed as an amenity.On a $100 bid, the total for 2 rooms is $600 + $91.02 in tax
thereuare Posted January 18, 2013 Report Posted January 18, 2013 When on the bidding/name your own price side of PRICELINE the 'guaranteed amenities' shown are amenities that are offered at very hotel in the zone at that star rating, not a specific hotel you'll be bidding on. At this point in the booking process PRICELINE has not yet even checked for availability inventory.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
