Donutcop Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 I'm looking at a PRICELINE EXPRESS deal for November 10-12 and wondering what the hotel might be.... 4* hollywood $201/night amenities are listed as: business center fitness center non smoking pets allowed restaurant swimming pool There aren't any guest reviews or a rating so I'm not sure which hotel this might be. Any thoughts? Link to comment
AaronJB Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Welcome to Betterbidding. I'm seeing on PRICELINE EXPRESS (please confirm that the correct dates of travel are showing on the detail page after clicking the link below.) 4* Hollywood for $201 Pets Allowed Business Center Restaurant Indoor or Outdoor Pool Fitness Center No Smoking Rooms/Facilities >>>A possibility would be the Kimpton Everly. Would this possibility be of any interest? If not, please let us know more about what you are looking for and we would be happy to research and offer other suggestions.

Donutcop Posted August 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Hi...thanks for your reply. Hmmm....I see the Kimpton Everly is pretty new so doesn't have any reviews on Trip Advisor yet. I'm hesitant to book this without hearing about other people's stay. What are your thoughts on it? Think I should pass? I'm looking for 4* or higher in an area that I can walk to the sights. My husband and I are in LA for about 48 hours before heading to Vegas. We arrive on Friday November 10 around noon and will rent a car and maybe do Santa Monica in the afternoon. Then Saturday we planned on doing a sightseeing tour which will hopefully take in most of the high points of interest. Sunday we were thinking of a studio tour before hitting the road to Vegas. I initially thought Hollywood so we could step out of our hotel and be near so many spots. However the hotels in Hollywood seem quite pricey. I noticed a 4.5* in Beverly Hills on Priceline Express just over the $200 mark. Think I should do that over the Kimpton Everly? (First time in LA lol) Link to comment
Donutcop Posted August 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Oh.... and I forgot to mention that I can get the W in Hollywood for $249/night through a friends and family discount but am not sure if I can find better bang for my buck. Link to comment
Donutcop Posted August 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 November 10-12 4* star Santa Monica Pier 3rd St Amenities: free parking free internet boutique hotel fitness center pet friendly pool $228 per night Any ideas? Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 Please keep all posts for the same stay in the same thread. Once you win a hotel, use the 'ADD REPLY and REPORT WIN' button on the upper right corner of the page to edit the topic title to reflect your win and to provide the details of your purchase. This helps keep the board better organized by reducing the number of unresolved threads that don't have any follow-up or conclusion. I have not yet stayed at a Kimpton property but it is on my 'want to do' list as they are a highly regarded boutique chain (and most of their properties offer a free wine reception every evening). With the Everly being new i would expect some kinks to need to be worked out in the nearterm, but i would suspect that they should be resolved by November and the hotel will be in full swing by then. Perhaps this property will be the exception to the rule, but generally Kimpton properties get excellent reviews. 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 4 star hotel in this zone when searching for your dates: 4* HOTWIRE Santa Monica Pier - 3rd Street Promenade for $228.00 Free Parking Free Internet Pet Friendly Boutique Smoke Free Fitness Pool Restaurant Hi-Speed Internet Golf Blind Accessible Deaf Accessible Travel Accessible Room Accessible Wheelchair Accessible Bathroom Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower ==> Le Meridien Delfina Santa Monica would be my best guess for this one 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.
