texasjohnsons Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Thanks for all the info on your site. I booked through your link to HOTWIRE. The hotel was just what I expected based on your information - the Intercontinental Boston for $116/night!I would have preferred the Omni Parker House for $95 through Priceline as another traveler won, but Priceline cannot guarantee sleeping beds for more than 2 people. I'm traveling with my family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teens). Any tips for the next time how to use Priceline with 4 travelers?We're looking forward to a great trip. Thanks again for your help.Amenities:Fitness CenterPoolRestaurantBusiness CenterHigh-Speed Internet AccessSpa Link to comment
yellowdog Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Welcome to BetterBidding and congratulations on your success!Thank you for sharing your result with the board and using our HOTWIRE link to book this :) Great to see that the board was useful for your result. Can you please confirm that a "smoke free" icon wasn't among the amenties for this hotel. you can still view this information by going to HOTWIRE and clicking the MY ACCOUNT link near the top right of their home page.Any tips for the next time how to use Priceline with 4 travelers?No, there is no way you can secure bedding for four people when you start to bid. This would be an arrangement between you and the hotel after you have gotten the room at PRICELINE.Enjoy Boston and your stay.Yellowdog. Link to comment
texasjohnsons Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Yes, it's smoke free. I didn't include that since I thought all hotel rooms in Boston are now smoke-free. Link to comment

thereuare Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Any tips for the next time how to use Priceline with 4 travelers?There is no way to "safely" do so... you can either take the risk and hope you get two beds (easy with toddlers or young children... not so easy with teens) OR bid for two rooms (which can sometimes be cheaper than one room direct)Thanks for using our PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links for your purchases. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
