Halberstam Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 I used the HOTWIRE link above to search on a Norfolk hotel, 11/20 -> 11/22. It came up with a 3* hotel in downtown for $54. I knew this wasn't the Tazewell (as listed in the hotel list), given that it had a pool. After visiting Trip Advisor's site and matching up the Trip Advisor score for a three star hotel with a 2.0 trip advisor score, I guessed that this would be the Radisson Hotel Norfolk. Wrong...it turned out to be the Sheraton Norfolk Waterside, which is listed in Trip Advisor as a 4*, 2.0 rating. I did learn that there might be a way to use these Trip Advisor scores to figure out these hotels better, although you can't match up the star rating. Hotwire's star rating was lower, but had I thought about it more, a 2.0 score with 60+ reviews would only match so many hotels. We have many stops on this trip, so I'll keep investigating the tripadvisor angle. Amenities: Fitness Center, Restaurants, Internet, Pool, Business CenterThe two nights came out to 108.00 + 23.37 (taxes) for a total of $131.37. Seems like a great location, but the reviews on the hotel scare us a little. Oh well, all part of the game! Link to comment
