soakerdude00 Posted July 11, 2009 Report Posted July 11, 2009 Hello all at BetterBidding!The site has been very helpful. I matched my Hotwire search to the Disneyland South Holiday Inn Anaheim/Manchester. I am arranging the accomodations for a group of 12, and we'd like 4-occupancy x 3 rooms.I plugged in 12 adults, 0 children, 3 rooms in the search (date 8/15-8/17) and got $59/day/room. My question is, how can I be sure these rooms have 2 beds, preferably, queen sized? I know on PRICELINE you can't guarantee or request for more than 2-occupancy, but with Hotwire, I plugged in 4 adults per room. Does this $59 rate reserve rooms with 2+ beds? Is there a way to find out prior to confirmation? Or have people had past experiences?Thanks so much!! And sorry if this is in the wrong place, I felt it belonged here.
thereuare Posted July 11, 2009 Report Posted July 11, 2009 Welcome to BetterBidding!HOTWIRE guarantees sleeping accomdoations for everyone you include in your search, so if you search for 3rooms/12adults you'll be assured of accomodations for everyone in your group. While this is usually 2 beds, it could be 1bed+sofabed, 1bid+rollway bed brought into the room, etc. There is no way to know what type of room configutation you will get before your purchase.If you'd like our thoughts to confirm the hotel you believe you're being offered please include the amenities that HOTWIRE associates with the property.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

AaronJB Posted July 11, 2009 Report Posted July 11, 2009 This would likely be a match for the Holiday Inn Anaheim.Please use the site's HOTWIRE link to start your purchase. Thanks. :)
soakerdude00 Posted July 11, 2009 Author Report Posted July 11, 2009 Perfect. Thanks Aaron.Just to follow up on thereuare's post, should I call the Holiday Inn to request two beds? And usually, when you said if I plug in 4 adults/room, they'll have arrangements to fit accordingly, do they provide 2 twin beds? Or 2 queens? Sofa beds normally fit one person, correct? And twin beds, only one person each?Again thanks for all your help...
AaronJB Posted July 11, 2009 Report Posted July 11, 2009 While 4 adults indicated would normally result in 2 beds, there is the possibility of 1 + 1 (1 plus a sofabed or rollaway.) There is no way to know exactly what room configuration you will wind up with or what size the beds will be (although two twin beds is unlikely, I'd have to imagine.)I would call the hotel after booking and politely (as while you should get two beds for four people, the answer can depend on who you talk to) put the "request" in for 2 beds per room. You could call HOTWIRE if you have any issues and have them call the hotel.
soakerdude00 Posted July 11, 2009 Author Report Posted July 11, 2009 Appreciate the help everyone! Take care :)

thereuare Posted July 19, 2009 Report Posted July 19, 2009 The amenities above match prior reports for the Doubletree, but not the one you have linked to above. The link above is for the Doubletree Guest Suites... the hotel that has previously been reported with this amenity combination is the Doubletree at 100 The City Drive, HERE... and that would be our best guess (although note these amenities are very common)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.
