Hotwire Hotel: 5* London (Heathrow Airport LHR West) Sofitel London Heathrow

[mabels]

Hi !  The Sofitel is the only 5* hotel in Heathrow West but at some point it was listed in Heathrow East.  I don't know how flexible these 4 and 5 * ratings are that Hotwire gives and I don't know how much trouble they go to lead people "astray".  I would like the Sofitel because I fly in at night and leave in the a.m....both trips are through T5.  So am I being obtuse or is this indeed the Sofitel?  It seems too simple. 

 

LHR West area

 

95% recommended

Here are the amenities:

Airport Shuttle

Smoke-free rooms

Fitness center

Restaurants

Business Center

Spa Services

 

Complimentary: Free Internet

 

5*

Normally $227  for $134 per night plus taxes etc

 

There is also a 4 1/2* in the East LHR section that advertises the Sofitel brand as a possibility.  I'm a little confused by all of this.

 

Does anyone have any thoughts?

Welcome to Betterbidding. :)

Please provide the date/s of travel and we would be happy to take a look and try to ID the above listing.

 

In terms of a listing that shows example brands at that star rating (Hilton, Sofitel, etc etc) star ratings vary by location. Some listings will say that the "last person won"... but that is not necessarily the underlying hotel, it is the last hotel that someone won at that star rating.

Of course,  sorry I did not post the dates originally.  The dates will be arriving into LHR T 5 on the 13th of July and departing on the 14th of July, also from T5

 

Thank you!

I believe there are more amenities then what you have posted above as HOTWIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you click thru a few extra links.

If you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper.com tool... use the HOTWIRE EASY VIEW tab and then click the GREEN BUTTON next to this listing, do you see more amenities then what you have listed above? Using this method, below is the full list of amenities i'm seeing for the 5 star hotel in this zone when searching for your dates:

Free Internet

Shuttle

Smoke Free

Fitness

Restaurant

Business

Hi-Speed Internet

Spa

... if this is what you're seeing, my best guess for this one would indeed be the Sofitel.
