Pauly Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 :) Hello friendly strangers,I'm an Aussie who knows nothing about Hawaii, nor these opaque bidding sites, so am flying a little blind.Any idea if this following might be a nice hotel? Which might it be?Oahu/Honolulu/Waikiki "Waterfront" - 1 adult, 1 room.Oceanfront, Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Spa, Business listed @ US $165 per night in early March.Thanks in advance for any help and guidance,Pauly
GM Mike Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 New friend,Welcome to betterbidding!Can you give us your exact dates and which quality star level this property is?
Pauly Posted February 25, 2006 Author Report Posted February 25, 2006 G'day Mike, Thanks for the warm welcome.It's 4 *, "Customer favourite" and $165 per night.Dates are March 3rd - March 6th (3 nights).Thanks heaps,Pauly
Pauly Posted February 25, 2006 Author Report Posted February 25, 2006 Hey again,The same details (even the 4.5 / 5 stars from 40 responses on the trip advisor website) give me $150 today. It's listed as best value, customer favourite. but the retail price and estimate saving have also dropped in only 3 days.Is it possible that there are 2 hotels with identical specifications/amenities/trip advisor rating and responses?Thanks - hoping somebody knows what I'm almost ready to book in.Pauly
Pauly Posted February 25, 2006 Author Report Posted February 25, 2006 Ok - I booked it on my own.Hawaii Prince Hotel @ $150 per night.Hope that helps others.
blindman Posted February 25, 2006 Report Posted February 25, 2006 Thanks for putting the info on here of your Hotwire win.This 'new' win confirms (more or less) the hotel as it appears in the Vacation Package (scroll down the page)The same details (even the 4.5 / 5 stars from 40 responses on the trip advisor website) give me $150 today. It's listed as best value, customer favourite. but the retail price and estimate saving have also dropped in only 3 days.Is it possible that there are 2 hotels with identical specifications/amenities/trip advisor rating and responses?The rates offered by hotwire (and the hotels) can change daily so this was probably the same hotel and luckily you got it at the lower rate :) Enjoy
jiji Posted February 28, 2006 Report Posted February 28, 2006 You should like the hotel, although not on Waikiki beach, it's a 5 minute walk to it or to Ala Moana beach park to the right. It's quiet, good sized and did I mention quiet? Enjoy
Pauly Posted March 1, 2006 Author Report Posted March 1, 2006 Thanks, mate. I really hope so... It's always a gamble, isn't it?Thanks again,Pauly
