yellowdog Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Welcome to BetterBidding :) Please don't copy/paste to your thread... post only the amenity names (and not the descriptions) as it will make your post easier to read and help minimize the chance that we miss an amenity when researching your trip.Please change the drop down menu on the top right of HOTWIRE page to United States and the currency dropdown to US Dollars. Then continue to search HOTWIRE and post to the board in US Dollars so that rates are consistent and not subject to interpretation due to future currency fluctuation. Once you're ready to purchase stay on the US version of their site and simply change the drop down menu to whatever currency you'd like to use and complete your purchase.Using the method above what is the room rate per nite in US Dollars?Yellowdog.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your purchases and searches.

thereuare Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Please keep all posts for the same stay in the same thread. Once you win a hotel use the EDIT TO REPORT WIN button on the lower right corner of this page and the thread will automatically be moved (if necessary) to the correct section of the board.To confirm, this description is appearing on the bidding page of PRICELINE? If so, these are amenities that are present at all 5* hotels in the zone, not a specific property that you will be bidding on. At this point in the bidding process PRICELINE has not even checked inventory for your dates.I assume you are familiar with and using your re-bid zones?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

georgias Posted August 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 yellowdog you are what we would call here in Australia a legend!i hope I'm putting this question in the right place, I'm on Priceline (yet again) looking at bidding on a 5 star hotel for beverly hillsI've looked at the amenities which include - pet friendly, free internet, fitness centre, pool, restaurant, business centre, 9+ ratingI have then gone onto the priceline website and searched for 5 star hotels in the beverly hills area, i haven't put in any dates so all hotels show up, and i have just limited the results down by searching to the above amenities, its brought the results down to 2 possibles: Bel-Air hotel and the peninsularIs what I'm doing correct or is it possible for priceline to have additional 5 star hotels that they don't advertise on their website?Thanks and i hope the above makes sense!

thereuare Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 The 'retail' and 'bidding' side of PRICELINE use a different universe of hotels... there are some hotels that participate with one side of their service but not the others, and vice-versa, so you can't use the retail listings as a finite list of what you may receive when bidding. See the related link in our PRICELINE FAQ for more info on this subject.As well, the 'guaranteed amenities' you're seeing on the bidding side of their service are amenities that are offered at all hotels in the zone at that star level, not a specific hotel that you would be bidding on. At this point in the bidding process, PRICELINE has not even checked inventory for your dates, they are only able to show the guaranteed amenities since they are amenities that are offered at all hotels in the zone at that star rating.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
