dahammer Posted October 19, 2005 Report Posted October 19, 2005 made this same day reservation, and as always accessed the Priceline site through savingsbarn.comI started looking at rates on Hotwire as well as other sites, I was shocked at how much rates have increased in the past year. Hotwire featured a 2* that appeared to be the Wellsley Inn, Armonk for $108, so I figured this would be my fall back position. In the Mt. Kisco-Armonk area, there are only 1* and 2* listings, and I figured that I would either get the Wellsley or the Holiday Inn. I didn't want to start off too high, but I did not want to rebid at the 1* level in case there was a "Bates Motel" lurking around :) My first bid was a success!Your Offer Price: $85.00 Taxes & Service Fees: $17.46 Total Charges: $102.46 This is really a step above most 2* properties, I might even give it a 3* rating. The property features a restaurant and lounge, and each weekday evening there is a complimentary activity around 5:00 such as wine tasting, tea and cookies, etc. On weekends, there are Kids crafts in the morning so that moms and dads can ditch the kiddies to reconnoiter. Rooms are updated, staff was helpful, free wired High Speed internet in some rooms. The online rate was a mind-boggling $175, so I was pretty happy with the results, I am just not used to paying over $100 in a Suburban NYC property, 45 miles away from the city. :)
