A love/hate relationship in the making

by mmyy66mmyy66 , Feb 24 '02
Saved $100 from prices offered by Travelocity, Expedia and Orbitz. But hotwire has inflexible terms. You only get the price up front, and you find out everything else after you order (and once you order, there's no going back). THEY choose the time of...

Hotwire nabbed my $237, and I got nothing

by amol , Aug 12 '01
Pros: Similar to Priceline, and you can see the fare details before buying
Cons: A no-committments middleman that will happily screw you and keep your money
I got a pretty good price on an SF-NY roundtrip fare which I booked 2 months in advance. Usually, it's ~$280, and this was $35 cheaper. Great. Read the other reviews to see what's so much fun about a cheap fare.

But then I had a work emergency...

Hotwire is not so HOT

by wahlflower , May 29 '02
The shopping experience was good. However when I arrived at the airport with my e-mail confirmation and confirming with the airlines days before that I did in fact have a seat. I was informed as I was trying to board the plane that Hotwire never...

Bad Hotel Deal and Poor Hotwire Customer Service

by indyken , Aug 16 '05
My wife and I used Hotwire.com when we were going to stay in Charleston, West Virginia recently. What a disaster! We had paid for two nights in what was *supposed* to be a three star hotel. We ended up in an ancient Ramada Inn that looked like it ...

Excellent!!

by tjwilkinson , Jan 06 '03
I have used Hotwire.com since 2001 for air travel, hotels, and car rentals. I have never been disappointed. Their prices were excellent and I received everything promised.

I note among the reviews here a lot of negatives ones regarding...

by foreveruz , Apr 06 '09

Fraud by Hotwire

by marc_in_ny , Apr 17 '09
I decided to take my girlfriend to Paris for a long weekend for her birthday since flights were very cheap for March. I went on Hotwire to book a room and they showed a "4 star" hotel right near the Arc Triomphe. The site stated that the hotel had a ...

This is the worst, most unhelpful online travel "service" I have ever used!

by tracyhampton , Nov 18 '08
This was the worst online travel service I have ever used. I booked our two tickets but the confirmation screen did not come up.  The screen froze.  I rebooked and this time it went through.  Two weeks later I got a message from ...

Hotwire not so hot... use expedia or something else.

by theitraveler , Feb 13 '07
We stayed at a hotel in Orlando for 2 nights after returning from a Disney Cruise. We used Hotwire to book the hotel, which was a mistake. We booked it because the rate on hotwire said "$60 per night including taxes and fees". However when we got ...

Horrible Service- not worth the price

by lsiqueir , Apr 25 '08
The pricing at hotwire might be fantastic, but you can find deals at many on-line sites. Kayak will run through everything for you. I'd much rather go somewhere and be treated respectfully than ever go through Hotwire again. I had complications with ...

Hotwire is the worst site to use!

by whatever346 , Oct 05 '09
About a month ago, I booked a hotel room for two nights in Atlanta through Hotwire for the weekend of 9/25/09-9/27/09.  Paid for the room and thought that was that.  A week before we're supposed to go, a friend emails me and warns me of ...

Great way to get travel deals.

by aharol , May 24 '07
A. Overall I've always found hotwire to be a great way to hunt for travel deals. All my bookings (I have done 4 so far) have turned out to be great deals and good experiences. You need to take that little extra effort to be sure of your hotel location ...

WHAT A NIGHTMARE!

by curvaciousgirl , Nov 13 '06
I booked with Hotwire on a few occasions. Once they put me in a Days Inn (called it 3 star) but it was a glorified Motel 6. I have never known a Days Inn to be a 3 star hotel. I gave them another chance. When booking for a hotel in Vancouver, I ...
