2ball Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 3.5-star Hotel in Stamford area | 75% 1 Room, 3 Adults, 0 Children Thu, Sep 28 - Fri, Sep 29 Free Internet, Indoor pool(s), Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business center, Self-service laundry This hotel's location earned it a 4/5 guest rating. $76.00 per night x 1 night x 1 room $76.00 Tax recovery charges + fees $19.08 Promo Code Trip total (USD)$95.08 Good news! Book this Hot Rate® Hotel and save 51%.* also,since I don't get to pick the room type (beds) is it safe to say since I put in 3 people, I will not get just a king? Some of the hotels in this area have a $17 to $20 parking fee. will this be reflected in the listing? Link to comment
thereuare Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Welcome to BetterBidding! 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 3.5 star hotel in this zone when searching for your dates: 3.5* HOTWIRE Stamford for $76.00 Free Internet Indoor Pool Smoke Free Fitness Pool Restaurant Business Laundry Hi-Speed Internet Golf Spa ==> if this is the full amenity set you're seeing, the Crowne Plaza Stamford would be my best guess for this one. Hotwire guarantees sleeping accommodations for everyone you include in your search, so you should be 'safe' in regards to more than just a King (whether it be a second bed in the room, a pullout sofabed, or rollaway brought into the room) Not sure of your budget but you could also consider this one: 3.5* HOTWIRE Stamford for $97.00 Pet Friendly Indoor Pool Fitness Pool Restaurant Business Laundry Hi-Speed Internet Blind Accessible Deaf Accessible Travel Accessible Room Accessible Bathroom Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower ==> the Sheraton Stamford Hotel would be my best guess here should this work better for your plans 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. Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

2ball Posted September 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Thank you. If it is the Crowne Plaza Stamford, then they charge $10 for parking. I assume that price is not reflected in the price hotwire gave me? The $97 deal is closer to rt 95 which I will be traveling down, and it is $50 less the the internet rate, but with taxes and such it will be around $120 and parking is $12 a day. I may go with a 2 star hotel, being is how I am just going to sleep there. Probably be there less then 10 hours. Link to comment
2ball Posted September 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 best guess what this one is. $63 Greenwich New Greenwich 2 star FULL AMENITIES: Free parking, Free breakfast, Free Internet, Pet friendly, Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access, Golf nearby Link to comment
thereuare Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 The rates shown by HOTWIRE are for the room only, you would have the same additional charges as any other 'full regular rate' customer (ie- parking, resort fees, etc. where applicable) You can use our sister site to see hotels that are closest along your intended route, use the filtering features on the left side of the page (after you conduct your search) to easily see the most convenient hotels that are closest to your route while also seeing if there is anything a little better for not much more OR a little further away for much less.

Let us know whatever you decide to do for this stay (even if not PRICELINE or HOTWIRE) Good luck!

thereuare Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 To add another: 3* HOTWIRE Stamford for $87.00 Free Parking Complimentary Breakfast Free Internet Fitness Restaurant Business Laundry Hi-Speed Internet Golf ==> this one has Free Parking and Free Breakfast, is 100% recommend by previous HOTWIRE guests, and the price makes you eligible for the current $10 off coupon (see my signature or the top of the page message) making this under $100 all-in... best guess here would be the Hampton Inn and Suites For this one: 2* HOTWIRE Greenwich - Old Greenwich for $63.00 Free Parking Complimentary Breakfast Free Internet Pet Friendly Business Laundry Hi-Speed Internet Golf ==> best guess would be the Super 8 Stamford/New York City Area which i would be very cautious given the 50% recommendation from previous guests (who were also there on a discounted rate and probably had low expectations to begin with) and is confirmed by the low 3.0 TA rating. For a net $20 extra i would recommend going with the much higher rated hotel above, get yourself a good nite sleep, and a decent breakfast in the am before hitting the road... but ultimately it's your stay and you know your needs better than we do.

2ball Posted September 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 The $87 looks good. free parking, If it ends up being a Hampton then it will be perfect. I don't think I can use the coupon, I think you have to spend $100 to use it. Is that correct? Link to comment
AaronJB Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 If the total w/tax is over $100, the HOTWIRE coupon code should work. Thank you for keeping us updated with what you decide and let us know if we can be of any further assistance.

2ball Posted September 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 looks like it is the pre tax amount. unless the price is $100 there isn't even a block to put it in. Link to comment
2ball Posted September 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 when I go to the regular hotwire web page, there is a 3 star hotel in Stamford for $87 the $10 off coupon code works there. When I go to the link on the better bidder web site, there is a 3 star hotel in Stamford that is $87 but there is no block to enter the coupon code. The amenities look the same, but one has a 95% approval rating and one has a 100% approval rating. Are they the same ones? Hampton Link to comment

2ball Posted October 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 3* HOTWIRE Stamford for $87.00 Free Parking Complimentary Breakfast Free Internet Fitness Restaurant Business Laundry Hi-Speed Internet Golf ==> ... best guess here would be the Hampton Inn and Suites As a follow-up, I booked this hotel in Stamford and did get the Hampton Inn.
