RMStanley4 Posted May 28, 2009 Report Posted May 28, 2009 My girlfriend and I are going back to South Beach this October and I was intimidated that my beloved Hotwire didn't have any attractive rates for our desired dates.I have used Hotwire without fail for the past 3 years and I just cannot say enough about it! I have stayed at so many great hotels (Drake in Chicago, Sofitel in Washington DC, LePavillon in New Orleans, etc) for under $100.Anyways, I decided to try Priceline for the first time ever. First I tried $115 for South Beach 4-stars and above for the dates of October 24-27th. No hits.Then I added Miami Beach and reduced my asking price to $113. A Hit!It is the Eden Roc Resort and Spa in Miami Beach. Didn't know anything about it so my heart was pounding as I typed it into TripAdvisor.com to see the reviews.I'm thrilled to say it looks swankier than either the Royal Palm or the Chesterfield - the 2 previous properties we stayed at through Hotwire.Just wanted to pass this along. Thanks much this is a great site and I feel guilty for not sharing my hits more often.
