BostonSurfer85 Posted January 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Are the maps on Hotwire reliable? I searched by addresses of hotels and the Holiday in Beachcomber came up as the closest hotel to the Beachcombers address. (2300 Kalakaua Ave) I also researched the amenities and the listed prices for the other hotels and the Beachcomber matches up as the $190 price on other sites. Link to comment

Are you on the 'retail' side of HOTWIRE or still looking at the 'opaque' side?If you're trying to find hotels near a specific location see our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com which makes it easy to see options near a specific location as well as how much more/less it would cost to go up/down in star rating OR to stay closer/further from your ideal location.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
