ginrushing Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Looking at 5/12-5/15 travel to San Antonio and have found a 4* on the Riverwalk that I can't identify. Amenities: All Suite Hotel Boutique hotel Business center Fitness center Pet friendly Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Smoke-free rooms Listed right now at $171 a night. I'm tempted to think the Hotel Contessa has been downgraded a 1/2 of a star b/c there is also a resort fee. But I checked these same dates over the weekend and at that point in time there was a 4.5* all suite with the Hotel Contessa amenities. The prices seem right too. This weekend the Hotwire rate for the 4.5* all suite was $204 and regular prices on their site were around $230. Today the regular rate is $199. Link to comment
AaronJB Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Welcome to Betterbidding. I think there may be more amenities than you have included above. If you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper tool and look in the EASY VIEW TAB, do you see additional amenities beyond those listed above? If so, please confirm the full amenity set and we would be happy to take a look. If you see: Boutique, Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Smoke Free, Free Internet, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, Golf, Tennis, Spa, Blind Accessible, Deaf Accessible, Room Accessible, Bathroom Accessible, Wheelchair Accessible, Roll-in Shower, Pet Friendly -- A guess is that this may be the Contessa. Please keep us updated with what you decide and let us know if you have additional questions. Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases.

thereuare Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Welcome to BetterBidding! 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 search using the EASY VIEW TAB of our BiddingHelper.com tool. 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 (including any accessible amenities) then what you have listed above? Using this method, below is the full list of amenities i'm seeing for the 4 star hotel in this zone when searching for your dates: Free Internet Pet Friendly Boutique Smoke Free Fitness Pool Restaurant Business Hi-Speed Internet Golf Tennis Spa Blind Accessible Deaf Accessible Room Accessible Wheelchair Accessible Bathroom Accessible Roll-in Shower ... if this is what you're seeing, i would agree with your initial assessment that the Hotel Contessa has been downgraded to the 4* level since it was last reported to the board. Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases. Let us know 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 Link to comment
ginrushing Posted April 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Thank you! Also - today I see on that listing "Book soon! The last person got the Hotel Contessa." I am going to debate the risk this weekend and will report back if I end up booking it but I am feeling confident having you agree with my assessment. Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Keep in mind that this offer could disappear (or the price could change) at any time, so if you think are you leaning towards this property (or this was the hotel you were hoping for), you may want to try to make a decision sooner rather than later. Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases.

ginrushing Posted April 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 I did not end up booking this through Hotwire but directly with Hotel Contessa. Link to comment
