Please post to the board in USD. Just change the drop down menu on the top right of HOT.WIRE page to United States and the currency dropdown to US Dollars. Then continue to search HOT.WIRE and post to the board in US Dollars so that rates are consistent and not subject to interpretation due to future currency fluctuation. Once you're ready to purchase stay on the US version of their site and simply change the drop down menu to whatever currency you'd like to use and complete your purchase.

No, I don't belive this is the Eaton House Wanchai.

A guess would be CHI Residences 279.

I ran the search with USD today, and it is $88 for the same parameters.

 

For CHI Residences 279, do they have free breakfast? Thanks for the suggestion. 

 

I think it's quite likely I will rent an apartment, but I want to make sure I am giving the hotels a fair try.

Hello again!

 

For CHI Residences 279, do they have free breakfast?

Thanx for pointing this out.  I took a second look at my first answer and did a second serach and I can see that I have mixed up the information I used

 

I still don't think that Eaton House Wanchai is hiding behind the listing.

 

Hotel Indigo would be a possibility here.

HI WillTravel :)

I gave this one a look but i'm not sure which hotel it is that is being offered. However, the only Indigo i see in this area is the one at 246 Queen's Road and i don't think that this is in the Southern zone.

Since this an extended stay you could see if this same property is offered for the first (or last) nite of your stay and then again for the balance. If so, you could purchase the solo nite in order to 'look behind the curtain'. If you're happy with the results purchase the remaining nites, if not, make alternate plans for the balance of your stay.

I wonder if it is Ovolo Hotel - 100 Shek Pai Wan Road, Aberdeen. If so, it's not a good deal, as you can get an equivalent or lesser rate with the code FBFAN on their website.

What about the The Luxe Manor as a possibility?

Ultimately I did not end up using Price.line or Hot.wire for this purchase. For our days in HK, we are staying at the YHA Mei Ho House Youth Hostel.

 

Although it is a hostel, some sites list it as a 3* hotel in terms of the private rooms. The twin rooms are relatively spacious, particularly for HK. We do lose out a bit on location, but are not that far from public transit (the MTR), and the rooms have various useful amenities (like free wi-fi and breakfast and a private bathroom and kitchen facilities). Ultimately, the risk when traveling with a friend, of getting a room that would not be suitable, was too high if we used Price.line or Hot.wire.

Thanx for the follow-up and closing this thread.

Good to see that you found something that works for you and your friend.

Have a nice trip!
