lam Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Hi! I am going to be attending a convention May 3-6 (4 nights) at the Hyatt Regency Reston. I am looking for something in that area - if I could get that particular hotel, even better! Anything in area A would be good. Can anyone tell me anything about this area - which hotels are available, etc.??? THANKS VERY MUCH!! Link to comment
moman26 Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 I recently stayed at the Hampton Inn Dulles/Cascades, located in Sterling, VA. This hotel appears on Hotwire as a 2.5-star hotel in Reston - Sterling - Dulles Intl Airport IAD North with the following amenities: Complimentary breakfast, Fitness center, Pool, Business center, Laundry facilities, and Golf nearby.I would highly recommend this hotel. The hot breakfast buffet is a nice bonus (they have some sort of scrambled eggs and a few other hot items, along with the usual continental fare). When I checked in, I was actually upgraded to a King jacuzzi room, the type of upgrade which generally seems rare in the Hotwire/Priceline world.Good luck with your search! Link to comment
dahammer Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 The BetterBidding Hotwire list shows the following:Reston - Sterling - Dulles Intl Airport IAD North4* Hyatt RegencyAmenities: Shuttle, Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Tennis, BusinessHowever, this does not appear available for your dates of travel, maybe the convention has reserved the rooms? What is the rate available to convention attendees? Moman, can you please post your dates of travel and the rate? This can be your first post and it appears that this has not yet been reported to the board. Thanks! Link to comment
lam Posted October 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 moman26, Thanks very much for your recommendation! Sounds like a great alternative! If possible, would you please le me know how much you paid for the room per night? Link to comment
lam Posted October 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 dahammer,Thanks for your help - somehow I missed seeing that, although I did some detective work on Hotwire by checking their package deals and noticed that the Hyatt Regency Reston is a 3* at this time. I am wondering if I can count on it being the same number of stars when searching for the hotel alone??? As you mention, it is not available at this time, but I was thinking maybe I could wait a bit and it might turn up. The rate for the convention is $135. Link to comment
dahammer Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 Checking Hotwire Packages is a pretty reliable means of finding the identity of a property. Its always possible that the Hyatt could turn some inventory over to Hotwire as your dates get closer. You might just want to reserve this through the convention and make sure that you may cancel it. There is always a risk that there is another hotel with similar amenities out there that has not been reported. Link to comment
AmericaWestCMH Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 Thanks very much for your recommendation! Sounds like a great alternative! If possible, would you please le me know how much you paid for the room per night?It's also a 2* on PL, Sterling zone. I've paid $38 and $34 through PL for this property (weekend stays), which I highly recommend as well. Link to comment
lam Posted December 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Thanks everyone for your replies - I ended up staying at the Hyatt Regency and paying the convention rate instead of booking through Hotwire because the location was more important to me than saving money on this one.
