cmb Posted October 1, 2003 Report Share Posted October 1, 2003 I am new to this bulletin board and am looking for help identifying two Midtown hotels on Hotwire. We are looking for Midtown hotels for 11/12-11/16 for a trip that is a combination of business and fun. 1. MTC 4.5 stars with restaurant, gym and business center. Listed at $179. I was wondering if anyone has actually purchased this and confirmed that it is the Omni (or something else).2. MTE 4.5 stars with restaurant, gym and business center. Listed at $235. I don't see this on the New York Hotels list. It looks like it could be the Waldorf, but it is not a "customer favorite."Any thoughts? Thanks. Link to comment
thereuare Posted October 1, 2003 Report Share Posted October 1, 2003 Welcome to BetterBidding!As you can see, Restaurant, Fitness, and Business are quite common in NYC (both hotels you listed have the same 3 amenities listed). This makes it a little tougher to be certain of the hotel you'll be getting, but often you can have a good idea of what you will get if everything matches up. In this regard, i wouldn't make the assumption that the 4.5* MTE is the Waldorf since it is lacking the Customer Favorite designation... although it is possible. If it had an identifying unique icon, like a pool (which is uncommon in NYC) then i would be more likely to make that assumption, but not with only 3 common amenities.We don't yet have a confirmed purchase of the Omni, but those identifications were taken from Hotwire's Package product. Once we do, we will put a line thru it and move it to the top post.Hope that helps.Feel free to ask any add'l questions you may have. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
cmb Posted October 1, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2003 Purchased 4.5 MTC with restaurant, gym, and business center for 11/12-11/16 for $179 and it is the Intercontinental Central Park South. Link to comment
thereuare Posted October 1, 2003 Report Share Posted October 1, 2003 Thanks for letting us know about this one!I hope your happy with the results and not disappointed that it wasn't the Omni.Looks like they've removed the Boutique icon from their Hotel product offering.THANKS!

cmb Posted October 1, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2003 Actually, not disapponted--very excited about the hotel and location! Will use this board and Hotwire next time we travel too.My husband uses Hotwire for hotels for business travel to LA all the time. I will try to get him to post his future results. Link to comment
merryecho Posted October 6, 2003 Report Share Posted October 6, 2003 You will love this hotel! Our room was gorgeous, the staff is wonderful and being across the street from the park is so refreshing after a day in the city.merryecho Link to comment
