Priceline Hotel: Resort San Juan InterContinental

[tjm0031]

Hi,

I'm obviously very new to the bidding game. I see how you guys see amenities on HOTWIRE but I'm not sure where to look on PRICELINE to see them so I can post and get a verification on what I'm bidding on.

Please help and let me know where to look on PRICELINE for this info.

Thanks

Hi,

ANy guess for the following amenities on hotwire for 4* for $122. dates are 10/24/09-10/25/09 (one night pre-cruise)

Amenities:

Resort

Beachfront

Casino

Pool

Restaurants

Business center

laundry facilities (hotwire says its coin-operated) that probably rules out at least the IC??

high-speed internet

tennis nearby

spa services

Thanks for the help

Sorry, but PRICELINE doesn't show hotel amenities. Might be why Hotline can get by with typically charging a little more.

Welcome to BetterBidding!

If you haven't seen it yet, this is a good place to start: I've Never Used Priceline or Hotwire as it explains the similiarities, and differences, between the two services.

The amenities of the HOTWIRE property you posted above match those of the Inter-Continental so that would be our best guess.

Hi,

I thought I'd update my trip planning. I opted to try out PRICELINE. I selected the San Juan region and selected "Resort" level to name my own price.

My bid history is as follows:

$95-rejected

$101-rejected

$102-won the Intercontinental.

I'm very pleased with my 1st experience on PRICELINE so far. Hotwire I think was offering it for $122 and if you book directly I think the cheapest room there was about $214 for my dates of 10/24/09-10/25/09

Thanks for all the help. I'm not sure how to add my win to the win Priceline and Hotwire Calendar of Wins but feel free to post it there if you'd like.

I do have one more question if you don't mind. Do you happen to know round about what the extra resort fees/taxes will be at the San Juan IC? I keep hearing about this and I am not sure what to expect

Thanks
