1. Sofitel.

2. Unidentified, but I believe this may be Sutton Place.

3. Ambassador East or Hilton Suites.

Please use the site's HOTWIRE link, and let us know what the results are.

[whoawhoawhoa]

Thanks. Given the uncertainty of the latter 2 properties, I am going to wait to see if anybody posts successful bids during this time.

[AaronJB]

The 3rd one could be either of those two properties or something else - there's no way of knowing 100%, and while you wait, prices may change.

The Sutton *guess* is based upon the fact that that I've seen that hotel on the vacation package side of HOTWIRE with those amenities, and it is in that zone. Again, no guarantees, but that was what the guess was based off of.

[whoawhoawhoa]

Regarding the 4*, when I add 2 children (with 2 adults), in the same area (NMA) it shows $143 per night with:

Fitness Center

Restaurant(s)

Business Center

High-speed Internet Access

It is NOT listed as a customer favorite. I assume that this is still unknown? There seem to be several properties on your list that this could be.

[AaronJB]

Yep - unfortunately this set of amenities could be one of a few different properties - unfortunately, there's no way of knowing exactly which.

[thereuare]

When i search 2adults/2children for your dates i'm also shown TA info of 3.5/5.0 with 260+ reviews which would be most consistent with the Millennium Knickerbocker so that would be my best guess. (if you don't see the TA info no guarantees i'm seeing the same property as you on your HOTWIRE search)

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

Now the 4.5* (same dates) with 2 adults and no kids shows TA rating of 4.5/5 (420+ reviews) and:

Fitness Center

Restaurant(s)

Business Center

High-speed Internet Access

and the 3.5* shows TA rating of 4/5 (160+ reviews) and:

Fitness Center

Restaurant(s)

Business Center

High-speed Internet Access

Any ideas?

[AaronJB]

The 4.5* would be a match for the Intercontinental or Conrad, but the 4.5/5 TA would be a match for the Conrad only.

The 3.5* could be a few different things, but I'm guessing it might be the Ambassador E.

I became a little more flexible with dates. On 7/30 - 8/2, I now see a 4* in NMA Water Tower for $132 per night, with 4.5/5 TA reviews (80+ reviews), and:

Boutique Hotel

Fitness Center

Restaurant(s)

Business Center

High-speed Internet Access

I would have guessed the Rafaello based upon the list but the list doesn't show restaurant. Any ideas? Thanks for your continued help!

[AaronJB]

I'm guessing this may be a match for Sutton Place.

I need some clarification on one more property, which I would think is the Avenue hotel but for the number of TA reviews shown. It's a 4* in NMA from 7/30 - 8/3 for $113 per night (best value icon shown), and with 4/5 TA rating and 140+ reviews, with:

Smoke Free Rooms

Fitness Center

Pool(s)

Restaurant(s)

Business Center

High-speed Internet Access

Tennis Nearby

This looks like an exact match for the Avenue hotel based upon your list, however when you go to TA there are only 60 reviews for this hotel, wheras hotwire is showing 140+. Any ideas?

[AaronJB]

This would still be a match for what has previously been reported with the Avenue. My *guess* is that the TA count on HOTWIRE may be from when the reviews for the Radisson were still included with this property - which no longer appears to be the case. Additionally, keep in mind that the TA information shown on HOTWIRE is neither always entirely accurate and/or up-to-date.
