MoItaly Posted July 30, 2009 Report Posted July 30, 2009 Just a question. When you proceed to step 1 of booking in Hotwire and they summarized the details of your trip (before revealing the hotel), they show a small map of "your" area with a rating by reviewers from tripAdvisor, like 4.5 out of 5. I am wondering what that rating refers to....the entire area (like in my case, Central Asheville? How can "Central Asheville" be reviewed?) Or they refer to the rating of the hotel they are sending to? I would hope it's the second because it would make it easy enough to narrow down the hotel. Any idea?

MoItaly Posted July 30, 2009 Author Report Posted July 30, 2009 I did not book but I think I found a new hotel offered by Hotwire. I am new on this forum so I call for the experts to check and confirm. I am doing this search: ASHEVILLE 10/22 - 10/27 3* The offer is $ 99.00Hotel rated at TripAdvisor 4.5 In the list we have here under 38 Asheville Central I see listed: Country Inn, Holiday Inn Downtown (which is where I am trying to go) and Crowne Plaza Resort. However, based on the amenities listed at Hotwire and especially based on the TripAdvisor rating (over 100 reviews) it seems to me that the hotel offered by Hotwire for $ 99.00 should be the Holiday Inn Asheville Biltmore East. Now, I did not book, so I don't have 100% confirmation, but I see that none of the 3 hotels in the list here is rated 4.5 out of 5 at TripAdvisor, while the only one with those amenities and that rating is the Holiday Inn Asheville Biltmore East. But as I said, maybe some of the forum managers/experts want to look a it and come up with their conclusion.
