winklet Posted May 3, 2014 Report Posted May 3, 2014 Hi all,I have a layover at DFW on July 20th and hoping to score a deal on one of the hotels (Grand Hyatt or Hyatt Regency) that are right in DFW. It doesn't look like any of the hotels on Hotwire for that date are a match. I've never tried Priceline Express, is it worth a shot as a hotwire substitute? We are a couple traveling with two small kids (aged 4 years and 1 year), so might be a gamble since you can't add kids on Priceline Express too... Should I wait it out and see what pops up on Hotwire? Any advice would be most welcome.Thanks in advance!
winklet Posted May 4, 2014 Author Report Posted May 4, 2014 This is the only 4 star hotel on Priceline Express for those dates at DFW, looks like might be Hyatt Regency DFW? Help id'ing would be greatly appreciated! Guest Score: Rated 8.0 out of 10 (or higher)Guaranteed Amenities: Outdoor Swimming Pool Free Parking Airport Shuttle Business Center Fitness Center
yellowdog Posted May 4, 2014 Report Posted May 4, 2014 Welcome to BetterBidding! We are a couple traveling with two small kids (aged 4 years and 1 year), so might be a gamble since you can't add kids on Priceline Express too... Should I wait it out and see what pops up on Hotwire?Would you be OK if you got a room with one bed? Please note that PRICELINE and PRICELINE EXPRESS only guarantees double occupancy, after that is at the discretion of the hotel. While you can call the hotel you win and request a room with two beds, the hotel may not be able, or willing, to honor your request. Whether they will/can or not depends upon a LOT of different factors, including what is available at the time of your check-in, how many rooms with two beds are offered at the hotel and what they need to accommodate other guests for your dates, hotel policy etc. HOTWIRE guarantees sleeping accommodations for everyone you include in your search... this often means two beds in the room, but the second 'bed' could be a pullout sofabed, rollaway brought into the room, etc. Let us know your thoughts and we'll go from there. Please use the PRICELINE and hot.wire links on the board to begin your purchases and searches. Yellowdog.
winklet Posted May 4, 2014 Author Report Posted May 4, 2014 Thanks for the reply! We'd be okay with one bed, since we have a playpen for baby. Two would be better... but we can make do for one night. Any guesses on the PRICELINE EXPRESS hotel id?
AaronJB Posted May 4, 2014 Report Posted May 4, 2014 The Hyatt, Grand Hyatt and Hilton Dallas DFW Lakes would all be matches on amenities. Unfortunately, this listing has not yet been ID'd/reported to the board, but all three would be possible. Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
