I was afraid it might be that. If SF is rated 4*, does that mean Royal Pacific, Portofino, and Hard Rock are 5*? I was hoping it would be RP.

 

Thanks for your reply

All four properties are at the 4* level, but I do think that this is the Sapphire. I do see what appears to be the Hard Rock on PRICELINE EXPRESS, but for just under $400.  Are you only looking for the RP?

I'm looking for one of the three deluxes. It doesn't have to be RP. I just thought RP would be the least expensive. I want the express passes! I'm hoping for something under $350. Am I dreaming? 

 

Thanks for your replies. I will for sure use the above links when/if I'm ready to pull the trigger.

Currently the one above is the only 4* or higher rated hotel that is offered thru HOTWIRE when searching for 1room/1adult/2children... do you see any other options currently offered at $350 or less?

 

It is only recently that HOTWIRE split this zone and before this it was very difficult to get an 'on-site' property, as those properties were rarely seen, and when there were, they were not typically discounted too deeply.

I ended up just booking directly with the hotel. Thanks for your help!

Thank you for closing this thread with your decision.

 

What hotel, and price, did you ultimately book?
