Hotwire Help

Hello,

I was wondering if I could get some help from the hotwire gurus. I did a search and found a rate of $114 a night for a 4* in Center City East. Would anyone know what hotel this could be? Amenities include fitness center, business center, and restaurant. I know that is not much info to go on, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

That is likely either the Loews or Westin according to betterbidding.com. The amenities listed are the same for both hotels, so hard to tell which it is. Both are good hotels.

Thanks Tom. I was thinking it might be the Loews or Sofitel.


Betterbidding indicates that the Sofitel has high-speed internet rather than business center, but you can never be absolutely certain.


The Westin and Sofitel are both in Center City Wset. It is either the Loewes, or maybe the Omni.


owlyn, For some unknown reason, Hotwire puts both the Sofitel and Westin in CC East. In fact, all the Rittenhouse hotels are placed there, while the Seraton CC and Embassy Suites are classified as CC West. Hotwire has an unusual sense of geography. They also insist on calling Old City ';Olde Town.';


Thanks for all your help and input, I appreciate it!


Tom,

Thanks for the info. I knew about the Old Towne- didn%26#39;t know about the rest. Nice.


Hi -

My best and seemingly educated guess is that it is the Sofitel, with the Westin running a close second. It%26#39;s not the Loews, they have a spa icon that comes up on Hotwire, as well as a pool icon. Not sure what dates you are staying for, otherwise I%26#39;d run a search on something like Expedia to see who is cheaper out of the Sofitel or the Westin and if either is sold out. Regardless, I think you%26#39;d be satisfied at either property for that price. If you do buy that hotel via Hotwire, please let us know which hotel it ended up being. Thanks!

Hi Suzanne,

My trip would be August 28-September 3. The lowest price of all 4* hotels in the area seems to be the Sofitel and has been listed on other websites at $171 and $177. If I do end up booking through hotwire I will let you know what hotel it was. Thanks for the help!
