Priceline Hotel: Bidding Help Appreciated

[Seabs]

Looking for a 3.5 + star hotel in Boston - Harbour Front or Boston Common areas. October 1 - 5. 3 adults in the room. Would like to spend around 250 or less.

 

Is this realistic? Ideally we'd like a 4 star. Please help.

Given that Price.line only guarantees 1 bed/double occupancy, is the possibility of getting 1 bed an acceptable risk?

Searching HOTWIRE for 3adults show a 3.5* hotel in the Boston Common zone for $242/nite with:

Indoor Pool

Smoke Free

Fitness

Restaurant

Business

Hi-Speed Internet

Blind Accessible

Deaf Accessible

Travel Accessible

Room Accessible

Bathroom Accessible

... my best guess for this one would be the Doubletree Hotels Boston Downtown.

Does this HOTWIRE offer work for your needs?

Thank you. We would definitely want 2 beds. Does Hot.wire guarantee this? Or is it safer to proceed in another way?

[AaronJB]

If you search for more than 3 on HOTWIRE, you should get either 2 beds, 1 + rollaway or 1 + sofabed.

 

HOTWIRE does not guarantee a particular bedding type, but if you indicate more than 2, you should get some form of bedding for the entire party.

Would this be sufficient for your needs?

Sorry for not following up earlier.  My wife ended up booking for this trip through Travelocity (she was travelling with her sister and mother), and stayed at the Collonade for ~$350/night.

 

Thanks for your help
