schwoosh Posted May 5, 2009 Report Posted May 5, 2009 Hi all, New to the board. I'm trying to ID a 3.5* Hotwire San Francisco (USE) hotel for 6/7-6/11. It has 280+ reviews on Tripadvisor. The amenities are: Fitness CenterRestaurant(s), Business Center, and High-speed Internet Access.Maybe the Marriott Union Square (amenities match but # of tripadvisor reviews are off) or St Francis Drake (trip advisor review numbers are in line but amenities are different - no spa)?Any ideas?
thereuare Posted May 6, 2009 Report Posted May 6, 2009 Welcome to BetterBidding!Searching HOTWIRE for your dates i'm not seeing any 3.5* hotel currently offered in the USE zone... do you see this property currently offered on your own HOTWIRE search? If so, are you searching for more than one room or for more than the default 2adults/0children?Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

schwoosh Posted May 6, 2009 Author Report Posted May 6, 2009 Nope, just using the defaults - it's still there for me at $78 a night.
Colfax Posted May 6, 2009 Report Posted May 6, 2009 I think it's probably the Francis Drake, using a different set of icons than what's in the Hotel List. The Spa icon comes and goes at many hotels.The Francis Drake is in Vacation Packages for your dates with the same icons you posted and the TripAdvisor stats match the Drake.The new Marriott Union Square hasn't been reported on Hotwire yet but when that happens I suspect it will be rated 4*.Please use this HOTWIRE link if you purchase.
thereuare Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 This 3.5* appears now on my search, and based upon all of the above, i agree the Sir Francis Drake seems like a pretty good guess.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

schwoosh Posted May 7, 2009 Author Report Posted May 7, 2009 Thanks for the help guys - just need to finalize my travel plans and then I'll probably give it a go. I'll be sure to use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links.
schwoosh Posted May 8, 2009 Author Report Posted May 8, 2009 Booked 06/07-06/12 - it was the sir francis drake! $78 a night +tax isn't too shabby for USE and complimentary high speed internet helps - it seems to be a rarity these days in upper star hotels. I used the HOTWIRE link. Thanks again for the help IDing the hotel.
thereuare Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Congratulations on your success!Glad to see you received the hotel you were hoping for and that you're happy with the results.Thank you for sharing your results with the board and using our HOTWIRE link to begin your purchase.Enjoy your stay.
