RichyRichNYC Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Posted February 11, 2010 LOL, well if push comes to shove I will go a bit beyond my means...
thereuare Posted February 11, 2010 Report Posted February 11, 2010 Once you're ready to strech your budget, the above may not be the hotel offered by HOTWIRE, or the price may increase no longer making it a viable option.In the meantime, what is your gameplan... are you just monitoring HOTWIRE for something to appear with a lower price? Are there any PRICELINE zone(s) where you're able to accept a hotel anywhere within the shaded boundaries of the zone?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

RichyRichNYC Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Posted February 11, 2010 I am looking for a Raliegh, Shore Club, Delano, Lowes, ETC esque hotel on Collins Beach Front. I am new to all this. If I submit a bid on PriceLine for $100 a night what happens next? Seems Hotwire is same expect there is no bidding just taking a leap. If I have no choice I will just take Hotwire.
thereuare Posted February 11, 2010 Report Posted February 11, 2010 With PRICELINE you offer a price for any hotel in the zone at the star level (or higher) you select... if that offer is accepted you then own the hotel room for those nite(s) and you're told the name of the hotel. Other than being within the confines of the zone(s) you select, there is no way to target a specific area or property, and you ahve to be willing to accept a hotel anywhere within the shaded boundaries of the zone.With HOTWIRE they will show you the zone boundaries, amenities that the hotel offers, and the price... if you accept one of their offerings you pay for it and then are told the name of the hotel. PRICELINE usually cost a little less than HOTWIRE, but HOTWIRE gives you the ability to take a guess as to the hotel you're being offered, based upon the amenities associated with the hotel.For additional info you can see this thread: I've Never Used Priceline or HotwireLet us know any questions you have and how you'd like to proceed and we'll take it from there.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

RichyRichNYC Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Posted February 11, 2010 Thanks for the wealth of knowledge... So from what I listed any ideas on what I had listed for the Hotwire property...? THANKS!!!
AaronJB Posted February 11, 2010 Report Posted February 11, 2010 The Hotwire hotels that have been reported to the board/ID'd can be found at this link: Hotwire Hotel List for Florida. There is also a list of reported PRICELINE wins for Florida: Priceline Hotel List for Florida.Both lists show what has been reported to the board for both services so far.
thereuare Posted February 12, 2010 Report Posted February 12, 2010 Using the hotel lists above the condo property in your first post matches the Riviera Suites so that would be my best guess.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know what you decide to do for this stay or if we can be of further help.
