Hotwire Hotel: 4* Orange County (Laguna Beach - Dana Point) Doubletree Suites By Hilton Dana Point - Doheny Beach

[KKabel]

4*

Amenities:

Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Accessible for the blind, Accessible for the deaf

Honestly, I had hoped for Marriott Cliff and thought that was the only 4* option. This hotel did not get so many good reviews.

Thank you for sharing your results with the board... sorry to hear it was not what you were hoping for.

I believe there may have been more amenities than you listed in your post, which would not have been seen unless you clicked the 'See all' link during the check-out process. Can you please add a reply to this thread confirming the full list of amenities associated with this property... you can still view this information by going to HOTWIRE and clicking the MY ACCOUNT link near the top right of their home page.

In the future feel free to ask the board for help and/or confirmation of the hotel you think you're about to purchase as a second set of eyes never hurts.

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

Thanks! Enjoy your stay.

Another clue...Im pretty sure the Marriott is a 'Trust the Thumb' pick, where this appears to be 'still gathering reviews'

(edit) I just checked, yep Marriott is a 90% Hotwire approved pick, and this is still gathering reviews.

btw- The Tripadvisor 3.0 rating shows for this one, which is another clue it wasnt the Marriott

For anyone else looking near this area, several times Ive taken the 'Trust the Thumb' 95% approved 3 star in San Clemente with 'free breakfast'(I think they dropped the 'near beach' amenity) and each time its been the Holiday Inn Express which is an excellent hotel(for the money)

Im sorry I have only posted two wins for that property, as the other times I travel with just an iphone and its too hard for me to post from it.

btw- I can call Hotwire and they book it for me right over the phone

Hotwire is a great company, and this site really helps and I do use the Hotwire & PRICELINE links from this whenever I can

Thanks
