faufau Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Hii, I am traveling to Boston with my husband on 12/27 - 12/30. We are planning to get the express deal, and find that both offers similar price. Can you help us figure out which hotels theres are: HOTWIRE Star: 5* Amenities: Business center, Fitness center, Indoor pool(s), Internet access, Pet friendly, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Smoke-free rooms, Spa services Price: US$136 before tax Location: Downtown Boston area Overall satisfaction: 5.0 Reviews: 100% recommended PRICELINE Star: 5* Amenities: Pets Allowed Business Center Restaurant Indoor or Outdoor Pool Fitness Center No Smoking Rooms/Facilities Price: US$134 Rate: Exceptional 9/10 Location: Downtown Boston area Is Downtown Boston a good area to stay? Or would you suggest other area? Appreciate your advise, thanks! Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 For the HOTWIRE offerI 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 5 star hotel in this zone when searching for your dates: Pet Friendly Indoor Pool Smoke Free Fitness Pool Restaurant Business Hi-Speed Internet Spa Blind Accessible Deaf Accessible Travel Accessible Room Accessible Bathroom Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower ==> if this is what you're seeing, the InterContinental Boston would be my best guess for this one For this 5* Downtonw Boston - Harbor Front hotel (confirm your dates on the landing page) from PRICELINE EXPRESS, my guess would be the InterContinental for this one as well 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 which service you decide to purchase thru and how it goes or how we can be of further help.

faufau Posted August 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Hi, Thanks for your reply. Where's the best place to stay in Boston for a first timer? Thanks. Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Boston is fairly small geographically, but generally speaking Copley Square and Boston Common are considered to be centrally located. If you search using our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com you can filter to the hotel(s) guessed above (or any other hotel you'd like)... click the hotel name on the left OR the marker on the map, in the info window that appears is a link to "SEE NEARBY Restaurants, Coffee, Bars, etc." which will give you the 'Walk Score' the hotel and give you a good idea of what is nearby... this can give you an idea of how centrally located the property based upon how much 'stuff' there is around it. 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.
