Hotwire Hotel: 4* Philadelphia (City Center East) Westin

[bocce1]

I found the following on Hotwire and wanted to get thoughts on wether this is the Westin, Lowes, or the Hyatt.

I need a dog friendly hotel, and the Hyatt isnt - which is why i wanted to confirm.

thanks for your help!

Welcome to the site :)

If you need a hotel to be dog friendly, HOTWIRE may not be the best choice, simply because there is no way to confirm 110% which hotel is showing. While a hotel could appear to be Hotel X on Hotwire, it could be the new and unreported hotel Y, for example. In other words, there is some risk involved.

Expedia has the Radisson Warwick on sale for $111.30 for these dates, and the coupon code HOT10 gets $10 off each night. The hotel also gets excellent reviews (4 out of 5 average rating) on tripadvisor.com and according to the website (http://www.radisson.com/philadelphiapa) is dog friendly.

The Radisson would be an option if you didn't want to chance HOTWIRE.

In terms of the HOTWIRE listing, based upon the list of hotels reported on this website, the listing in question would appear to be a potential match for the Westin. The 4/5 tripadvisor rating would be a match for the Westin, too.

If you would like to go with the Radisson, it would be greatly appreciated if you could use the site's link to Expedia.com to start your purchase. If the potential Westin, please use the site's HOTWIRE link to start your purchase.) Thank you, and let us know how it goes.

I agree 100% with what AaronJB posted above... an opaque provider may not be the best option for this stay.

However, if you're willing to take the risk, the HOTWIRE hotel above is also showing (on my search at least) a 4.0/5.0 Tripadvisor rating with 120+ Reviews and this would be consistent with the Westin so that would be our best guess. However, as mentioned above, there are no guarantees.

Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases. (or if you end up booking direct please use the links in our support page)

Let us know what you decide or if we can can be of further help.

Hi! Thank you for your help!

I took a chance, and went with HOTWIRE (booked it through the link!) and got the WESTIN PHILADELPHIA!!!

Figured the chances were good for the Westin or Loewes, and worst case we could always board our dog.

Thanks for all your help. Great website!
