Hotwire Hotel: San Francisco: 7/25-7/28

[NoviceTraveller]

Hi,

I am looking for hotels in San Francisco between 7/25-7/28 for 4 people. Budget is < $200/night. Areas: Union Square/Nob Hill/Russian Hill.

Since we are 4 people, does it make sense to try to use Priceline bidding/hotwire or should I go the traditional route instead of bidding/express deals? Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Please note that PRICELINE/PRICELINE EXPRESS only guarantees double occupancy, which means you may receive a room with only one bed and the hotel could assign you a room with only one bed. You could request a room with two beds, but the hotel could be unable, or unwilling, to accommodate your request... or charge an additional fee if they are willing to accommodate you request.

HOTWIRE guarantees sleeping accommodations for everyone you include in your search... this often means two beds in the room, but the second 'bed' could be a pullout sofabed, rollaway brought into the room, etc.

I would start with looking at HOTWIRE if they had any inventory.

Let us know your thoughts and we'll go from there.

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

Thanks for your replies. I decided to go the traditional route of booking the hotel directly since that option satisfied my requirements better.
