San_2k6 Posted July 21, 2017 Report Posted July 21, 2017 Hi All, New to the forum and new to PRICELINE EXPRESS as its not well known here in England. With help from you guys I got a very good deal for the New York part of our stay and will be travelling to Miami in August so could do with some help on this as well please. My wife and I are travelling to Miami on Tuesday 22nd August and leaving Miami on Friday 25th August. I am looking on PRICELINE EXPRESS for a 3.5*- 4* rated hotel with free wifi and have been recommended to stay around South Beach. I have found the following hotel, could someone please help with identifying this hotel? 4* Hotel South Beach Collins Avenue Oceanfront Hotel Amenities: Free Internet, Pets Allowed, Bed Choice, Restaurant, Fitness Centre, Swimming Pool, Non Smoking Rating 7+ Good Price: £73 per night (around $95) or recommend anything else at South Beach Collins Avenue Oceanfront or Ocean Drive. Or if you think any other location is a good choice please let us know. Thanks
TobiTobsen Posted July 21, 2017 Report Posted July 21, 2017 IMHO it could be the SLS Hotel South Beach
San_2k6 Posted July 21, 2017 Author Report Posted July 21, 2017 Thanks...will read up on trip adviser to check the reviews. If there is anything else that someone finds and could recommend then that would be helpful.

KatiesMom Posted July 21, 2017 Report Posted July 21, 2017 No problem. Looks like they have some nice choices for the South Beach leg of their trip!
San_2k6 Posted July 29, 2017 Author Report Posted July 29, 2017 Hi All, Thanks for the help. I will make the booking over the next 2 days. Just been very busy at home and with work.

San_2k6 Posted August 11, 2017 Author Report Posted August 11, 2017 Hi All, Thanks for your help. Unfortunately I have been rather ill so did not get a chance to book any of the hotels. Would anyone be able to recommend anything for our dates and location? Should I start a new post?
thereuare Posted August 11, 2017 Report Posted August 11, 2017 Hope you're feeling better and all set to travel! Are the previous hotels above no longer available? What is your maximum budget (per nite before fees/taxes) for this stay?

San_2k6 Posted August 11, 2017 Author Report Posted August 11, 2017 Hi, Thank you. Yes feeling a lot better now thank you. Unfortunately when I click on those they no longer show up and just go to the normal website. If I could get something around $120 that would be great but as its not long left till the holiday I'm not sure if that it suitable so could go higher if needed to be but would first prefer to stick around that price.
thereuare Posted August 11, 2017 Report Posted August 11, 2017 Some ideas: 4* South Beach - Collins Avenue Oceanfront for $124 Pets Allowed Restaurant Free Internet Indoor or Outdoor Pool Fitness Center No Smoking Rooms/Facilities ==> best guess would be the Royal Palm South Beach Miami, a Tribute Portfolio Resort 4.5* HOTWIRE South Beach - Oceanfront Collins for $126.00 Pet Friendly Boutique Beachfront Smoke Free Fitness Pool Restaurant Business Hi-Speed Internet Golf Spa ==> Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel woudl be my best guess here 4* HOTWIRE South Beach - Oceanfront Collins for $118.00 Free Internet Boutique Smoke Free Fitness Pool Restaurant Hi-Speed Internet Spa Childrens Activities ==> Nautilus, a SIXTY Hotel Any of the above work for your needs?

San_2k6 Posted August 11, 2017 Author Report Posted August 11, 2017 Thanks when I click on the HOTWIRE links its just takes me to the hotwire homepage. Is that what is supposed to happen?
thereuare Posted August 11, 2017 Report Posted August 11, 2017 Yes, the HOTWIRE link is not a direct link to that property... use our BiddingHelper.com and then look in the EASY VIEW tab to find the same property (based upon the price which may differ +/- by a dollar or two, but more importantly the full amenity set matching what is above) 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.

San_2k6 Posted August 13, 2017 Author Report Posted August 13, 2017 Thanks, not sure what I am doing wrong but I cant seem to find any of these. I have found the following though, 4-star Boutique Hotel in South Beach - Ocean Drive South area | 80% 1 Room, 2 Adults, 0 Children Tue, Aug 22 - Fri, Aug 25 Free Internet, Boutique hotel, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Restaurant(s), Golf nearby, Accessible for hearing impaired, In-room accessibility, see more Free Internet, Boutique hotel, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Restaurant(s), Golf nearby, Accessible for hearing impaired, In-room accessibility, £72.74 per night x 3 nights x 1 room £218.22 Tax recovery charges + fees The taxes are tax recovery charges Hotwire pays to its vendors (e.g. hotels); for details, please see our Terms of Use.

AaronJB Posted August 13, 2017 Report Posted August 13, 2017 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. I'm seeing: 4* South Beach - Ocean Drive South for $93.00 Free Internet Boutique Smoke Free Fitness Restaurant Hi-Speed Internet Golf Deaf Accessible Room Accessible Bathroom Accessible Roll-in Shower ==> The RoomMate Lord Balfour would be a guess 4* South Beach - Ocean Drive South for $114.00 Complimentary Breakfast Free Internet Pet Friendly Boutique Near Beach Smoke Free Fitness Restaurant Hi-Speed Internet Golf Blind Accessible Deaf Accessible Travel Accessible Room Accessible Wheelchair Accessible Bathroom Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower ==> A guess would be the Beacon Hotel. Would either of these possibilities be of interest? Thank you for keeping us updated and please let us know if we can be of any further assistance.
