thereuare Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 Planing a Christmas vacation with the family (2 adults, 3 kids, 2 rooms)2 Rooms, 2 Adults, 1 Child Your searches should be the total number of rooms/adults/children... not per room. I get different results when searching 2rooms/2adults/3children vs. 2rooms/2adults/1child. Can you confirm that the former is what you need? (as the latter would only guarantee accommodations for 3 guests total) Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases. PS- and please follow-up your previous Priceline Paris thread with whatever you ended up doing for that trip. Thanks.

GreenB Posted November 9, 2015 Author Report Posted November 9, 2015 Today I performed exactly the same search as last night and this is what it came up with: La Défense - Neuilly area hotel5 stars 90% Favorite!2 Rooms, 2 Adults, 3 ChildrenWed, Dec 30 - Tue, Jan 05Free Internet, Pet friendly, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Restaurant(s), Business center, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility$134 per night Perhaps is because I adjusted the search to 2 adults and three children.The 4 stars remained about the same. La Défense - Neuilly area hotel4 stars 90% Favorite!2 Rooms, 2 Adults, 3 ChildrenWed, Dec 30 - Tue, Jan 05Free Internet, Pet friendly, Restaurant(s), Business center$67 per night Do you have any idea on which hotels they might be? Thanks!!!I will use to place my bids----> HOTWIRE PRICELINE
thereuare Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 For the 5* if you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper.com and view this offer in the EASY VIEW tab, do you see the following (HOTWIRE no longer shows the complete set of amenities before purchase): Free Internet Pet Friendly Smoke Free Fitness Restaurant Business Hi-Speed Internet Travel Accessible Room Accessible Bathroom Accessible Handicapped Parking ... if so, best guess for this one would be the Sofitel Paris La Defense Using the same method do you see this for the 4 star: Free Internet Pet Friendly Restaurant Business Hi-Speed Internet ... unfortunately i don't have any insight into this one. Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board. Let us know what you decide or how we can be of further help.

GreenB Posted November 9, 2015 Author Report Posted November 9, 2015 Hi. I did perform the search again for the 5* through the Bidding.Helper.com link and it came back with $134 with the following: FULL AMENITIES: Free Internet, Pet friendly, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Restaurant(s), Business center, Internet access, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking. The amenities you asked me for are: Free Internet YES Pet Friendly YES Smoke Free YES Fitness YES Restaurant YES Business YES Hi-Speed Internet YES Travel Accessible YES Room Accessible YES Bathroom Accessible YES Handicapped Parking YES So I think we may be talking about the 5* Sofitel Paris la Defense using Hot.wire. Would you go with Price.line with a lower bid on the 5*? The 4 star with exactly the same search is trickier because it comes back with 2 properties. FULL AMENITIES: Free Internet, Pet friendly, Internet access $100 FULL AMENITIES: Free Internet, Pet friendly, Restaurant(s), Business center, Internet access $67 We have 3 choices. The Renaissance, The Pullman and the Hilton. The $67 property looks like it is a really really convenient choice which, in my opinion, is either the Renaissance or the Pullman. I'll keep you posted. Thanks!!!
AaronJB Posted November 10, 2015 Report Posted November 10, 2015 If you bid on PRICELINE you have to be willing to stay potentially at any hotel at the star rating picked in the zone chosen. As well, PRICELINE only guarantees double occupancy, and you need one room with triple occupancy, which can be tricky in Europe where rooms (and beds) are usually smaller than their US counterparts. Please keep us updated with what you decide and let us know if you have additional questions.

GreenB Posted November 17, 2015 Author Report Posted November 17, 2015 UPDATE. Good morning to you all. Last night we decided to postpone our trip. Unfortunately things have been rather unsettled and the news have been really sad.We decided to wait a little bit on our travel to France to see how things develop over there.If it is OK with the administrators, I will start a new thread when we are ready to book our rooms. Thank You very much for your time and for your help. H.
thereuare Posted November 17, 2015 Report Posted November 17, 2015 Thanks for the update... We will close this thread and feel free to start a NEW TOPIC once you reschedule. Let's hope we can all return to what was previously referred to as 'normal' as soon as possible.
