thereuare Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 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? This is what i'm currently seeing for the 3.5* hotel in this zone priced at $91/nite:Free Internet Pet Friendly Fitness 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, best guess for this property would be the Wyndham Grand Pittsburgh Downtown.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

cwl6750084 Posted October 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 Thank you very much for the response and the information therein. I got Wyndham Grand in several cities a few times and they were mostly listed as 4.5* or 4*. I am surprised this is listed as 3.5*. May be it is a run down property. I will be making the booking after the New Year holiday, the office lady left early today for the New Year holiday without activating my travel card :(, cannot make purchase until next week. Well report back afterward s. Thanks again and happy Thanksgiving. Link to comment

taliategan Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 This property was formerly a Hilton, although the prior owner had financial difficulties and the star rating went down to a 3. This led Hilton to remove it's name from the property prior to the Wyndham Grand taking over the property. I'm not really sure what Wyndham has done to the hotel since they took it over and what future plan they have for it. Link to comment
cwl6750084 Posted October 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 Thank you very much for the information. From trip advisor, the hotel seemingly not a too bad one. Link to comment

thereuare Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 This matches previous reports for the Omni William Penn so that would be my best guess for this one.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

cwl6750084 Posted October 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Our group decided to leave at the end of the last day of conference (23 to 26 November), for which the 4* is not offered on Hotwire.com. I am not too comfortable with a 3.5* Wyndham Grand (too much bad experiences with a less than 4* hotel on Hotwire.com before). At the end, I bidded a hotel from 23 to 26 November at USD 130 per night for 4* on Priceline.com and ended up with Rennaissance Pittsburgh, which sounds a good deal to me. I sincerely appreciate all the information and assistance, especially to thereuare, and apologize for not using Hotwire.com at the end instead. Sorry for all the troubles. Have a very pleasant week.
