Tremble Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Hello, I recently came across this site and thought I would try my luck using Hotwire. I am looking to travel to Boston Mar.3 to Mar.7,2008 with my wife and 2 children. When I entered these dates, hotwire returns a 3.5 star in the Copley/Backbay zone at a customer favorite price of$99 per night for 4 persons. The hotel has the following amenities: pool,fitness centre,restaurant and business center. Trip Advistor shows customer rating of 3.5/ 5 based on 120 plus reviews, the last being Dec 20/07. I would appreciate if anybody could tell me what property this maybe and could I do better trying Priceline.Thanks. Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Welcome to BetterBidding!The above is a match for the Hilton Boston Back Bay so that would be our best guess.Priceline is usually a little cheaper than HOTWIRE, but the 'problem' is that priceline only guarantees double occupancy... you'll be quad occupancy. You can choose to take the risk, but it's possible, and the hotel would be within their 'right', if you received a hotel with only one bed. If you were traveling to a family friendly city such as Orlando i would think that taking the chance might be worth it, but it's usually not recommend in large, cities, which also cater to a business clientele.Please use this HOTWIRE link to begin any purchases you make.Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

Tremble Posted January 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Thanks Thereuare. You were spot on with the location. When I went back and inputted my days the price had risen by $5.00 but it was still $160.00 below the Hilton's best internet rate. I tried to link to HOTWIRE via this sites link but my fire wall must be blocking me. I'll have to investigate further.thanks again. Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 We'll send you a PM to troubleshoot the cause of the HOTWIRE link not working... it's usually just one of two or three possibilities which are easily fixed.It's not clear from your post above... did you purchase this property?
