Hotwire Hotel: 3* Miami (South Beach - Ocean Drive) Avalon Hotel

[travelgirl101]

I am currently looking at a 3* hotel on Hotwire in the South Beach Ocean Drive area. The amenities don't line up with the ones in the Hotwire list. I see a couple that are close, but wanted your feedback before pulling the trigger.

Here is the property info:

$147 per night. Standard price slashed was $227.

85% recommended by 91 reviews.

Amenities:

Free Internet

Boutique Hotel

Oceanfront hotel

Smoke Free Rooms

Pool(s)

Restaurant(s)

Business Center

Internet access

Tennis Nearby

Thanks in advance!

I believe there are more amenities then what you have posted above as HOTWIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you click thru a few extra links.

If you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper.com tool, and then click the HOTWIRE EASY VIEW tab, do you see more amenities then what you have listed above?

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

A property with this amenity set has not yet been reported to the board... the Clevelander Hotel would be a guess, but i am far from certain.

I am seeing what i believe to be the 3.5* Avalon Hotel for $155/nite and includes free breakfast, if this is of any interest.

The Avalon sounds like a good option at well.

Last night I tried my luck with the PRICELINE link from your site. My bids were rejected. I started with 4.5* at South Beach - Ocean Drive for $90.

I then bid up to $115 for a 4* in the Dadeland, North Miami, Southwest Miami, Aventura, South Beach - Collins Avenue Oceanfront, and South Beach - Ocean Drive zones.

If you search HOTWIRE for your dates for there is a 3.5* hotel offered in this zone for $155/nite with:

Complimentary Breakfast

Free Internet

Boutique

Near Beach

Restaurant

... best guess for this one would be the Avalon Hotel.

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

I purchased if for $155 using the betterbidding HOTWIRE link.
