Hotwire Hotel: San Fran Hotels

[mender]

4.5* in Union Square $139 9/2-9/4 - Any ideas?

[mender]

Priceline has a link from Mandarin that says 50% off - 4.5* hotel in San Fran proper, "may or may not" be the hotel on the prior page (Mandarin) - any idea what this will get me? Thanks.

Welcome to BetterBidding!

Please keep all posts for the same stay in the same thread.

For help IDing hotwire properties, please include the amenities that HOTWIRE associates with the property (and which Union Square zone is the property located in?)

For the second question and the Mandarin, i'm not sure where/what you're refering to... priceline doesn't use a 4.5* rating system in their opaque model so i'm not sure what you're seeing.

And as to Priceline - you are right, it was 5* but when you click through the best you can book is 4* so it appears to be a gimmick.... Knew that one was too good to be true...

The 4.5* property has not yet been identified, but it has previously been speculated that this is the Palace.
