ABC1968 Posted July 26, 2015 Report Posted July 26, 2015 This is my first time and I have found a hotel on PRICELINE EXPRESS Deals and I wanted to have an idea of what we will get. The dates are 9/5-9/6 I want to be as close to the Intercontinental Hotel on Congress in Austin, Texas as possible (Conference). I found a 3.5* for $151 a night and here are the amenities: Free Internet Restaurant Swimming Pool Business Center Fitness Center I also found a 4* that could work for us as well and their amenities are: Free Internet Swimming Pool Fitness Center Business Center I did use the provided links which were super easy to use. Thanks ABC
ABC1968 Posted July 26, 2015 Author Report Posted July 26, 2015 Hi again, I also went onto Hotwire and found this: The dates are 8/5-8/6 9/5-9/6 4* $157 Boutique Hotel Pet Friendly Smoke Free Rooms Fitness Center Pool Spa Services Free Internet Restaurants Thanks ABC
ABC1968 Posted July 26, 2015 Author Report Posted July 26, 2015 I forgot to include my dates on the original request : The dates are 9/5-9/6
thereuare Posted July 26, 2015 Report Posted July 26, 2015 Welcome to BetterBidding! Best guess/comments inline below: I found a 3.5* for $151 a night and here are the amenities...I'm currently seeing this priced at $143/nite, did the price go down for you as well? (if not let us know and we can try supplying a link to the same hotel that we're currently seeing)... if the price is similar to mine (within $1-$2 dollars) then my guess here would be the Radisson Hotel And Suites Austin Downtown. I also found a 4* that could work for us as well and their amenities are...Please remember to include the room rate per nite in your posts as it makes it easier for us to locate the same hotel when replicating your search. My best guess for this one would be the AT&T Hotel and Conference Center I also went onto Hotwire and found this: The dates are 8/5-8/6 9/5-9/6Are you seeing this property when searching for 9/5-9/6, as i'm only seeing this one when searching for the (incorrect?) dates of 8/5-8/6. If none of the above work for your needs, you can also using our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com which will show you your options within 'x' miles of the address of the InterContinental, and makes it easy to see how much more/less it would cost to go up/down in star rating OR to stay closer/further from your ideal location. Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board. Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
ABC1968 Posted July 29, 2015 Author Report Posted July 29, 2015 Im sorry, the actual dates I am looking for are 8/5-8/6 (Not September). $175 on Hot.wire I am still searching, and of course I am getting to the wire. Do you still get the ATT for the one with the following amenities? Business center Fitness center Internet access Pet friendly Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Spa services Hot.wire says that the last person to reserve did get the Intercontinental, but I will let you know what I get. Thanks again
ABC1968 Posted July 29, 2015 Author Report Posted July 29, 2015 I went ahead and took the leap on Priceline and got the Hilton Austin. I am not that happy, but I had already had a "dummy" reservation reserved, as just in case there, so it will work out well. The amenities are:Heated poolExercise gymOn-site business centerPets allowedNon-smoking roomsParkingCable televisionHairdryer Thanks again
