catitamatias Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 Amenities (listed on Hotwire website): resort, cassino, indoor pool, fitness center, pool, restaurant, business center, internet access, tennis nearby.85% recommendedPrice is $59 (67% off - price before $179)Dates 11 April - 14 April 2015 FULL AMENITIES: Resort, Casino, Indoor pool(s), Fitness center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business center, Internet access, Tennis nearby, Spa services, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Wheelchair accessible, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking My guess is Hilton Prague because I think is the only 5* that has cassino. What would be your guess?I just thought weird because the original price of Hilton Prague isn't $179, it cost around $90. Please, help me with this purchase.
thereuare Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 The Hilton Prague would be my best guess as well.

catitamatias Posted February 17, 2015 Author Report Posted February 17, 2015 This hotel just showed up to me today and i am looking for hotel in Prague (Old Town Square area only) for April 11 to April 14. PRICELINE EXPRESS DEAL 5* Old Town Square - Astronomical Clock areaAmenities: Indoor or Outdoor pool, Fitness Center, Business center, Free Internet, Restaurant and Cassino.Guest rating: 8+ (Save 64% or more)Price: $79 per night What hotel could be?I think the hotel that could be are Hilton Prague and Prague Marriott Hotel. Hilton Prague is not a good option to me because of the location, but Prague Marriot would be very nice. But I really don't know what hotel could be. I don't know if this is correct, but I always use the strategy discount to found out what hotel could be and it has worked so far.Let's say the hotel is showing up on Priceline Express Deal that cost $79 and has 64% dIscount, so the original price should be something around $219, So I go on the Priceline List View to see what hotels are in this price and with all the caracteristics that was showing on Express Deal like Indoor or Outdoor pool, Fitness Center, Business center...So I match all this combination and in the end i have an ideia what hotel could be. But this time didn't work for Prague, maybe some information is wrong. I bought hotel in Paris and Berlin with this strategy of the discount and really worked, but now I am frustrated. Could you help me to find out what hotel?
catitamatias Posted February 17, 2015 Author Report Posted February 17, 2015 Actually, the PRICELINE EXPRESS Deal changed to $75 (save 54%) So according to my strategy, it did worked now. So if the hotel had a 54% discount, the original price should be something around $162, that is the original price of the Prague Marriott. The only thing I am not sure is that the guest rating give me a 8+ and Prague Marriot is 9+. Do you think a person can give a bid on Priceline Express Deal for a 8+ and can get a 9+?
thereuare Posted February 17, 2015 Report Posted February 17, 2015 Do you think a person can give a bid on Priceline Express Deal for a 8+ and can get a 9+?Since the listing is 8.0+, and 9 > 8, it's possible. HOWEVER, i don't agree with using the percent discount and retail prices as an accurate means of guessing the hotel, as unless things have changed recently, this has not been a reliable factor, imo. I'm not currently seeing a 5* hotel in the Old Town Square - Astronomical Clock Area zone with the amenities and user review rating that you have listed... are you still seeing this on your own search?

catitamatias Posted February 17, 2015 Author Report Posted February 17, 2015 No, I can't see either. It's gone. That happened to me when I was booking in Paris too. The deal was gone and later on it showed again. I will keep an eye on...But just in case the deal shows again, do you have an idea what hotel can be?
thereuare Posted February 17, 2015 Report Posted February 17, 2015 If it re-appears let us know and we will research it at that time... it can take a considerable amount of time researching properties, so we don't investigate properties if they're not currently available for purchase.

catitamatias Posted March 1, 2015 Author Report Posted March 1, 2015 I had searched again on Hotwire and found this two options: 1°) FULL AMENITIES: Resort, Casino, Indoor pool(s), Fitness center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business center, Internet access, Tennis nearby, Spa services, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Wheelchair accessible, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking90% recommendedPrice: $57 2°) AMENITIES: Casino, Fitness center, Restaurant(s), Business center, Free Internet, Free Breakfast, Pet Friendly (I tried to use the BiddingHelper to see full amenities, but it doesn't show this hotel option)Price: $7890% recommended The first option looks similar to the one I had asked before, but now it shows as 90% recommended instead of 85% recommended. Dates remains the same (11-14 April)
thereuare Posted March 1, 2015 Report Posted March 1, 2015 Best guess for the first property would be the Hilton Prague. For the 2nd property, if it is not appearing in the BiddingHelper.com, you'll need to do the following to see the full amenity set: Search HOTWIRE (or use the HOTWIRE tab at BiddingHelper.com) and...click the offeron the next page click the BOOK NOW linkin the TRIP SUMMARY box click the 'See more' link at the end of the amenitiesUsing this method below is the amenity set i'm seeing for this property: Complimentary Breakfast Free Internet Pet Friendly Casino Fitness Restaurant Business Hi-Speed Internet ... if this is what you're seeing, the Hotel Kings Court would be my best guess here.

catitamatias Posted March 7, 2015 Author Report Posted March 7, 2015 I found these other options today on Hotwire: Old Town Square - Astronomical Clock areaAmenities: Pet friendly, Indoor pool(s), Fitness center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business center, Internet access, Tennis nearby, Spa services, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Wheelchair accessible, Accessible bathroomPrice $70Trip Advisor: 4.5 out of 5.0Hotwire customer reviews 95% recommended New Town - Charles Square areaAmenities: Free Internet, Casino, Indoor pool(s), Fitness center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business center, Internet access, Golf nearby, Tennis nearby, Spa servicesPrice: $60Trip Advisor: 4.0 out of 5.0Hotwire customer reviews 95% recommended Dates remains the same (11-14 April) What hotel could be?
thereuare Posted March 7, 2015 Report Posted March 7, 2015 I'm assuming both of these are 5* rated? If so... Best guess for the Old Town property would be the Hilton Old Town, with a slight chance of the InterContinental... for the New Town property the Corinthia Hotel Prague would be my guess.

catitamatias Posted March 7, 2015 Author Report Posted March 7, 2015 Yes, they are 5* hotels, I forgot to say.I was thinking it could be Hilton Old Town either. You said there is a small chance to be Intercontinental, but does it have tennis?Because it there is no tennis, it can't be Intercontinental.
thereuare Posted March 7, 2015 Report Posted March 7, 2015 The Tennis amenity is listed as 'Tennis Nearby' so it does not need to be on-site and what qualifies as 'nearby' not clear.

The price came down a little bit and it was for $69 per night.I dont know if it was a good price, but the prices in Prague for my stay were getting expensive, so I decided to book now. Thank you for the help!
