Hotwire Hotel: 5* hotel NYC central part South

[duchesslynne]

Listing shows:

 

Free Internet, Pet friendly, Boutique hotel, Airport shuttle, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Restaurant(s), Business center, Self-service laundry

 

Price is $420, which ends up more like $545 with taxes and fees.

 

Possibilities I saw here included Loews, which isn't a five star at all. We like the Pierre, which it says the last person got, however listings on here don't show boutique for the Pierre. Any ideas?

Please start by concluding your previous San Antonio Hotwire hotel thread with whatever you ended up doing for that trip.  Please remember to follow-up your threads with your wins/decisions as you make them (even if you don't ultimately use PRICELINE / HOTWIRE, cancel the trip, book direct, etc) as this help keep the board better organized and more useful for everyone... as well as being a courtesy to anyone who took the time to help with your travel plans.

 

... then reply here with the dates of your NYC stay above so we can replicate your search and have a closer look at this property.

 

NOTE that the "Last person got ___" information shown by HOTWIRE is in reference to the last person who bought a hotel for this star rating in the zone... not necessarily in relation to the underlying hotel description currently being offered.

 

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.

I 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. (always use this method for your searches/purchases to ensure you're seeing the complete amenity set and for an easy comparison of PRICELINE vs. HOTWIRE, as well as to use our new IS THIS A GOOD PRICE feature).

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:

 

5* Central Park South for $424.00
Free Internet
Pet Friendly
Boutique
Shuttle
Smoke Free
Fitness
Restaurant
Business
Laundry
Hi-Speed Internet
Spa
Childrens Activities
Blind Accessible
Deaf Accessible

==> if this is what you're seeing, as per the Hotwire Hotel List this matches previous reports for the Loews Regency New York and that would be my best guess for this one

 

Not sure if CPS is the only acceptable area for this trip, but you may want to consider any of the following which also includes our best guess for each (confirm your dates on the landing page of the provided link):

 

5* Chelsea Area for $360

Thanks for the response, that's unfortunate. Ah well, easy come easy go. We booked the Viceroy by Central Park directly on their site.
