A Laundry icon has no correlation to a room with a Kitchenette... but HOTWIRE has a seprate Kitchenette icon to indicate rooms which have this amenity.

If you need a hotel with a kitchen... look for a HOTWIRE hotel which shows this icon.

April 22 - 28 and I need 4 rooms with 2 adults and 2 kids per room (so a double double)

I have read many posts and personally have booked rooms that ended up being an extended stay suite with kitchen and have never seen hotwire use the kitchen icon. So I know that many of the 39 and 49 possibly do - can I call and ask if there are additional icons not showing online? I booked a hotel in Orlando that said only laundry and got pool, kitchen, comp breakfast.

There is a 2 star that has more info when I enter 1 room 2 adults and 2 kids (I can't book 4 rooms with 8 adults and 8 kids because it kicks me out but that is the only way to ensure we all get the same hotel but we need 2 double beds in each room)

Hi.

I don't know where you've been looking but HOTWIRE has a Kitchenette icon.

Look here

http://www.hotwire.com/pop-up/gen-hotel-amenities-popup.jsp

or look at the attachment.

HOTWIRE will let you search for 4 rooms with 8 adults and 8 children (works for me anyway)

When I do that the 2* comes up with those amenities at $39.00

I booked a hotel in Orlando that said only laundry and got pool, kitchen, comp breakfast.

HOTWIRE only lists some of the amenities to protect the hotel ID and it (quite rightly) expects that if people find 'extra' ones when they arrive they will not mind.

Thank you - I guess Expedia kicked me out early on in my search for using over 8 people and I confused it with HOTWIRE.

So... any guesses as to the 2 star in Jacksonville - which hotel it might be?

As far as the kitchen icon - I have been searching for a month and 1/2 and haven't seen it listed on any of my searches. But I know that many of the hotels listed have that amenity. It is an incredibly important amenity for our group to cut the cost of traveling with kids.

Thank you for your feedback and help!

But I know that many of the hotels listed have that amenity.

Actually, you don't know this, as the kitchenette icon is not shown. It may have a kitchen, but the only way to be sure that the hotel you purchase has a kitchenette is if that icon is shown before your purchase..

It is an incredibly important amenity for our group to cut the cost of traveling with kids.

Which is why booking a HOTWIRE hotel that doesn't show the kitchenette icon is a risky proposition for you. Even if we say "we believe the hotel is XYZ", it may not turn out to be that hotel, and the hotel you receive may not have a kitchen available. Especially since you're traveling with other families, if you make the purchase for everyone and receive a hotel without a Kitchen, are you willing to accept that responsibility/blame?
