princetonfusion Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Woo hoo! I've been trying to snag the Intercontinental for the past week because I have a voucher for a free night. I've been hoping to add four additional nights, but the Intercontinental wasn't showing up among Hotwire hotels. But tonight I searched again, and the right amenities showed up, so I rolled the dice, and BINGO, got it at $95 per night, plus tax.If you're trying to get the Intercontinental through Hotwire, a few things to note:1) The Intercontinental will charge an additional 14% fee per night above what Hotwire charges you. This is collected when you show up.2) This hotel is funky on HOTWIRE. The prices can fluctuate by $10 to $20 by simply going shorter or longer on your reservation, and not all nights are available. I had to try different dates and different lengths of stays to simply get it to show up in the Hotwire list. I got the best price for a 4 night stay. Trying three nights, it wasn't even available. For two nights, it popped back into view but for $12 more per night.3) The amenities listed in the Better Bidding pinned Puerto Rico Hotwire Hotel list are right on, so pay close attention to them.

princetonfusion Posted September 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 The amenities shown (for what turned out to be the Intercontinental) were exactly what's listed in the pinned Puerto Rico List here at BetterBidding. Showing on HOTWIRE (when I clicked for it to list ALL amenities) were the following:ResortBeachfrontCasinoRestaurantBusiness CenterLaundryHigh-Speed InternetTennis NearbySpa Link to comment
