yellowdog Posted July 16, 2013 Report Posted July 16, 2013 5* option $75/nightHOTWIRE has a new interface which is not currently showing the complete set of amenities at the usual point of the search process.This workaround has been successful in order to see the complete set of amenities:· use this link to search HOTWIRE· from the search results page click the offer for this hotel· on the next page click BOOK NOW (no worries about purchasing by accident since no credit card information is entered up to this point)· on the left side of the page click the 'See all amenities' linkThis should show you the full list of amenities.4* option $74/nightI can't get the same hotel to appear on my standard search for 2 adults. How many rooms/adults/children did you search for? Can you please run a new search and confirm that you still can see this hotel on your search.Yellowdog.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your purchases and searches.
PPhloyd Posted July 17, 2013 Author Report Posted July 17, 2013 I did what you suggested, and for both the hotels which now show at $75, I don't see any change in the list of amenities, other than a couple of lines about accessibility options (Wheelchair accessible, roll-in shower).My dates are Oct 11 to Oct 14 2013, 1 room, 2 adults, in the City Center-Old Town area.The only 5* you currently have in the Hotwire list for Prague is the Mamaison Riverside, which isn't technically in the City Center-Old Town area. Hotwire has upgraded the Hilton Old Town Prague to the 5* category (your list has it at a 4*). This is my guess for the 5* option.I'm at a loss for the 4* option, but since it's the same price as the 5*, it's pretty much a moot point.Thanks again for your help.
thereuare Posted July 17, 2013 Report Posted July 17, 2013 ...I don't see any change in the list of amenities, other than a couple of lines about accessibility options (Wheelchair accessible, roll-in shower).Yes... that is part of the full list of amenities, can you please add a reply to this thread with the complete list of amenities.The only 5* you currently have in the Hotwire list for Prague is the Mamaison Riverside, which isn't technically in the City Center-Old Town area.It may not be what you consider to be 'City Center - Old Town' but it is within the zone boundaries of how HOTWIRE defines this zone.Hotwire has upgraded the Hilton Old Town Prague to the 5* category (your list has it at a 4*).I agree that the Hilton has likely been upgraded, but we don't upgrade the hotel lists on the board until confirmed with a purchase, since the 'retail' listings are powered by Expedia and sometimes the star ratings between the two services can be different.Let us know whatever you decide to do for this stay or if we can be of further help. When reporting your win to the board, please do include the full list of amenities, including any accessible ones.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Good luck!

PPhloyd Posted July 17, 2013 Author Report Posted July 17, 2013 The reason I was suspicious of the Mamaison Riverside in the City Center-Old Town zone is because at least per the Hotwire map, the zone is on the east side of the river, but the hotel is on the west side.Regardless, here is the list of amenities:5-star option:$239 $75/nightAmenities:Pet friendly Boutique Hotel Indoor pool(s) Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center High-Speed Internet Access Tennis Nearby Spa Services Accessible path of travel In-room accessibility Wheelchair accessible Wheelchair accessible common areasAccessible bathroom Raised toilet, hand-held shower and grab bars at the tub and toilet4-star option $130 $85/nightNo list of amenities is currently visible (earlier list is now gone)

This area used to be one large area but was recently sub-divided into smaller zones and we have not yet updated the Hotwire Hotels List, but i will put it on the list of things to do.For the 5* my best guess would be the Hilton Prague Old Town.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Good luck and let us know how it goes.
