For Hotwire, you need to know the locations of the various hotels within the Hotwire areas.

Have a look at www.betterbidding.com - the list of Hotwire hotels for Vegas, and recent bookings and their results.

Sometimes you can determine the Hotwire hotels by shopping the packages (hotel + air) and matching up the stars and ammenities. But, again, you must know which hotels are in which Hotwire areas.

It's probably not the Venetian, unless Hotwire has downgraded it from 5* to 4*.

You may or may not be able to correctly guess the hotel ahead of time.

For the rate, do you really care?

You might also want to have a look at various other Las Vegas discount hotel booking websites.

And, take a look at http://www.vegas-promotions.com/

Hotwire also tells you the TripAdvisor rating and how many reviews there have been on TripAdvisor. That can help you match it up.

The other thing is, on betterbidding.com, under "Nevada-Hotwire", you can list your dates and what's available, along with the amenities, and one of the "proprietors" will tell you which hotels they think it is.

11/23-27 4* Central Strip, I found a $114 with the following amenities:

casino, fitness, pool, restaurant(s), business center, highspeed internet, golf nearby, tennis nearby, spa

According to betterbidding, it can be one of these three - Aladdin, Paris and Ceasars Palace.

Venetian is 5* for Hotwire, so it cannot be it.

They do have a 5* Central Strip for $254. That should be the Venetian.
