Hotwire or Priceline

Can anyone tell me what 4-star hotels Hotwire or Priceline are awarding during 7/16 - 7/21 in the Washington, DC area specifically the Dupont Circle, White House or Convention Area.

Try www.betterbidding.com
They have a fairly comprehensive list of hotels used by Priceline AND Hotwire.

For Priceline only, use www.biddingfortravel.com. They don't have Hotwire info, but do have great Priceline info.

And keep in mind that no matter what you read there, you can't count on getting the hotels that others have gotten. You may get a different hotel, or even one that no one has ever posted to those sites before.

With Hotwire, check their vacation packages to Washington D.C. They will show you the hotel names, the ones that are 4 stars will be the ones considered if you only book the hotel (in this case you don't see the name).

By trying your dates with the Hotwire and Priceline packages, you can determine some of the hotels you might get. And, you must familiarize yourself with which hotels are in which Zone/Area (and these vary between Priceline and Hotwire). It is not unusual, for example, to find that Hotwire offers a choice of four 4* hotels in Boston's Back Bay area for your dates, but only two come up when you search the packages.
