Jeano222 Posted October 8, 2004 #3 Share Posted October 8, 2004 I just booked Sheraton Harbor island on Hotwire.com for 99.00 night plus tax for 12/5. I also checked 12/6 and the same is coming up. The cheapest rate I have seen is 259.00 plus tax, so I'm happy. Pick San Diego, then Downtown Harbor island and it will come up with two, the first one with 4 stars for 99.00 is the Sheraton, Good Luck, I have checked every week for 5 months and it just came up.

cujosmom Posted October 8, 2004 #4 Share Posted October 8, 2004 I believe there is a Holiday Inn directly across the street from the pier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jschutz Posted October 8, 2004 #5 Share Posted October 8, 2004 The Holiday Inn is directly across the street from the terminal, you can literally walk it. There are two or three Holiday Inns' in the marina area, I believe the one you want is the Holiday Inn Bayfront. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elemai Posted October 8, 2004 #6 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Jeano222, How do you know what hotel on Hotwire? I would like to bid for the Holiday Inn on the Bay, which is the one that is close to the pier. Can you help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Jammer Posted October 8, 2004 #7 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Yeah, the Holiday Inn would be the closest, but you can stay pretty much anywhere in town & jump on the trolley & it will drop you off right there. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeano222 Posted October 8, 2004 #8 Share Posted October 8, 2004 You have to determine what the amenities are on hotwire and then go to http://www.betterbidding.com and they will tell you which hotel has those amenities. I knew when I bid what the hotel was. The only 4 star hotel coming up on hotwire is Sheraton Harbor island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elemai Posted October 8, 2004 #9 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Thank you Jeano222 I will do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wv4891 Posted October 8, 2004 #10 Share Posted October 8, 2004 This hotel is a 3 star hotel in the Downtown San Diego & Harbor Island Area. May I also suggest another website to check, www.biddingfortravel.com. Here is a link with a little helpful information. Jeano222, How do you know what hotel on Hotwire?

MISSYLOU Posted October 8, 2004 #11 Share Posted October 8, 2004 We have stayed at the Hilton Harbor Island and the Holiday Inn and prefer the Hilton. The Hilton is newly redecorated and overlooks a marina with a lot of sail boats. Of course the Holiday Inn is closer to the pier. But the shuttle at the Hilton took us to the pier. You might check out BiddingForTravel.com to see what hotels have been won and for what rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruznon Posted October 8, 2004 #12 Share Posted October 8, 2004 The Holiday Inn on the bay is the closest as stated before--you can watch "your ship come in" literally! There's also an Embassy Suite just up the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JNLROSE Posted October 8, 2004 #13 Share Posted October 8, 2004 We're on the cruise just before you & I got the Holiday Inn on the Bay for $99 a night from Priceline! I just took the chance & it came up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trixsea Posted October 8, 2004 #15 Share Posted October 8, 2004 I stayed at the Sheraton Harbor Island last November and loved it. Get up early and watch the ship sail past the hotel. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
