talmasi Posted March 17, 2006 Report Posted March 17, 2006 Wanted 4* 5/26 to 5/31. Tried up to $80. Split date 5/27-5/31 and won with $65 at Westin (see previous post for details). Westin Bayshore's website used to show availability for 5/26 at $369 CAD, but no longer shows availability for 5/26. However, if I enter 5/26 to 5/31, then there's availability at $345 CAD/night. Also tried Hotwire and noticed that Hotwire will occasionally have a 4* in Vancouver downtown west available for $66/night for 5/26 to 5/31, which I think it's the Westin Bayshore. However, hotel not available for 5/26.It seems that the Westin is holding some rooms for multiple night stays only. Does anyone know if this may be true? Also will some rooms be released as the date gets closer?Thanks.
thereuare Posted March 17, 2006 Report Posted March 17, 2006 It seems that the Westin is holding some rooms for multiple night stays only. Does anyone know if this may be true? Sure it can be true... this is a common occurence in the hotel industry.Rooms being released to the opaque suppliers would be based upon how actual demand comes in relative to expected demand... if less than expected they could release some rooms, but if stronger than expected they won't can may even go to a sold-out condition on their own website. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
