j44thor Posted August 7, 2013 Report Posted August 7, 2013 I'm seeing the following hotel in Boston Waterfront under PRICELINE EXPRESS.For some reason the amenities are not showing up on this site for PRICELINE hotels but they do for HOTWIRE.*4 Star hotel Seaport Convention Center area$148 per night 9/14-9/15Guaranteed Amenities:Indoor Swimming PoolPets AllowedRestaurantBusiness CenterFitness CenterThere is a similar but less expensive hotel on HOTWIRE which I believe to be the Westin which I really don't want.$134 Waterfront Area Convention CenterAmenities: Pet Friendly, Indoor Pool(s), Smoke Free Rooms, Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business Center, High Speed Internet, Blind AccessibleAlso says 95% recommended which doesn't jive with Tripadvisor so I'm very confused.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thereuare Posted August 7, 2013 Report Posted August 7, 2013 My guess for the PRICELINE EXPRESS property would be the Westin.For the HOTWIRE property, if you go back to HOTWIRE and click this offer, then on the ensuing page click the 'See all' link under the amenities, do you see more than what you've posted above? Using this method this is the full list of amenities i'm seeing associated with this property:Pet Friendly Indoor Pool Smoke Free Fitness Pool Restaurant Business Hi-Speed Internet Blind Accessible Deaf Accessible Travel Accessible Room Accessible Bathroom Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower If this is what you're seeing my best guess for this one would also be the Westin. The percent recommendation you're seeing is from previous HOTWIRE guests and has not correlation to the percent recommended shown at Tripadvisor.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know whatever you decide for this trip and how it goes or if we can be of further help. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
j44thor Posted August 7, 2013 Author Report Posted August 7, 2013 Thanks for your help. I still only see the amenities I listed previously under the all link. Having said that the Blind accessible leads me to believe this would be the Westin. If I opt for the PRICELINE EXPRESS bid I will update this.
thereuare Posted August 7, 2013 Report Posted August 7, 2013 Please follow-up this thread with whatever you end up doing for this trip... even if it's not PRICELINE or HOTWIRE, you book direct, cancel the trip, etc. Each thread having a 'conclusion' helps keep the board better organized and more useful for everyone, so that future readers know what you ultimately did for the trip, rather than be left wondering if you won a hotel but didn't report the win.If you're looking for something in a specific location you can try our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com which makes it easy to see hotels near almost any given landmark or address and visually see how much more/less it would cost to go up/down in star rating or if you stayed further from your desired location.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

j44thor Posted August 8, 2013 Author Report Posted August 8, 2013 Thanks for the advice.Since I'm a sucker for PRICELINE I ended up with the Westin Seaport-Convention area for $135. Price had gone up about $10 on the express bid since yesterday so this saved me a few bucks anyways. Of course I used the PRICELINE link here to book the hotel.Wasn't my first choice but seems like a good price.
yellowdog Posted August 8, 2013 Report Posted August 8, 2013 Thanks for using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding :) We hope you're satisfied with the outcome and will like the Westin.Enjoy your stay.Yellowdog.
