Anybody know what 3* boutique with internet (no restaurant) is? $97 for Oct 1 thru 5 are the dates. Not much selection coming up. Any suffestions?

Welcome to BetterBidding!

This may still be the Vance, which is usually reported with the above two amenties in addition to a restaurant icon, but regarding the Vance:

This hotel is currently renovating its public areas. The hotel ensures that every effort will be made to minimize noise and disturbance. Please click below for details (completion dates subject to change).

Click here for renovation details

Lobby: Scheduled for completion September, 2005.

Restaurant: Scheduled for completion October, 2005.

So there is a decent chance that this hotel is not showing the Restaurant icon due to it begin closed for renovations.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

Thanks. That's what I thought. Hotline's price is only a little better than their website (116.00). I'm thinking about bidding on Priceline and seeing if I can do better, but I will use your link whatever I do.

Now I'm getting a 3* hotel DT Pike Place with no amenities, just Hotel for $97. Dates are Oct 1 to Oct 5. What do you think this could be? I bid up to $100 for 4* on Priceline and got nothing so far but will keep trying.

What is your maximum bid for a 4* via Priceline?

[abqdeb]

I was hoping to keep it at $100 if possible. If nothing 4* comes up, I'll probably start to bid 3*, but I really don't want the Holiday Inn, so I'm going to hold off awhile and see what others get for those dates.

Any idea what that 3* on Hotwire is that only shows Hotel?

Do you think I need to go higher than 100$ to get a 4*? The Sheraton is going for $219 and the Westin is $201 on their own sites.

Thanks so much for your help.

Do you think I need to go higher than 100$ to get a 4*?

Yes, but probably only by $15-$20 or so.

Most find this worth it since the Dowtown zone includes area by Pike's Market and the Space Needle... but all of the 4 stars reported thus far are centrally located near Pike Market. If you choose to bid for 3* you increase the chances of getting something closer to the Needle.

We have not yet had anyone report on a 3* hotel in this area with no amenities so i couldn't have a guess as to its identity.

After bidding 4* on Priceline up to $120 for several weeks, this deal came up on Hotwire so I grabbed it. 10/01/2005 to 10/05/2005 -$99 per night - Crowne Plaza Pike Market area.

Thanks for all your help! :)

Glad you got it settled.

Can you please add the amenities that were shown before your purchase. You can still view these by going to Hotwire and clicking the MY ACCOUNT link near the top right of their home page.

Thanks.
