Hotwire Hotel: 4* New Orleans (Downtown) W New Orleans

[a330marcus]

Staying in New Orleans on 12/22 for one night. Saw a 4* Downtown area listing available with the following:

Gym

Pool

Restaurants

Business Center

HighSpeed

Golf

Price: $77

Does the inclusion of Golf signal it is the W New Orleans? (info from previous posts). Preferable looking for a hotel within walking distance to the Convention Center.

If I want to try to get a lower price, how much lower should I go on priceline? I tried $55 and I was rejected.

Thanks!

PS - This is my first-time post -- great site!!

It's not the inclusion of a Golf icon that leads us to guess this is the W, it's that all the amenities make this an exact match for the W Hotel in the Hotwire Hotel List.

If you only made the one bid at $55 you can bid again as follows:

You have four re-bid zones available when bidding 4* in New Orleans. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.

Select 4* Downtown and re-bid zone...

Bid $60, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $65, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $70, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $75.

If the above is rejected you can take the HOTWIRE offer.

Any questions feel free to ask.

Good Luck and let us know how it goes.

An update -- we bidded for 2 rooms and it was indeed the W on Poydras Street. Priceline did not approve of anything below $70... so we just ended up using hotwire. Think they will take my SPG number there?
