big turk Posted April 1, 2009 Report Posted April 1, 2009 Used the HOTWIRE link above to select this property.Amenities shown include restaurants and laundry facilities.The price is OK - looking at TripAdvisor, it appears that I am getting at most a $10 discount off the promotional rates at other websites, but since it's in an area I was looking at anyway, I'll take it. If I may editorialize though, it appears that based on my experiences so far, the deals to be had on Hotwire are much less appealing in Spain than in the U.S.A.
thereuare Posted April 2, 2009 Report Posted April 2, 2009 Congratulations on your success!We haven't seen that many purhcases in Spain, but i think it really depends upon the area you're bidding... there are some places even in the US where the dsicounts are usually fairly low while in other areas it's not ucommon to see nearly 75% off! A lot of factors come into play, including how occupancy, business/tourist hotel, high/low season (if there is one), and how much margin is available to discount from the hotel's own rates. Bottomline is that it always pays to do a little research first to know what the best deal is that you can get at an acceptable hotel in order to make sure you're not paying/bidding too much for an opaque purchase.Thank you for using our HOTWIRE link to begin your purchase and sharing your results with the board, helping us add this property to the Hotwire Hotel List.Enjoy your stay.
