I have not been watching the hotel deals closely, but overall, almost always. I saw a skydiving or similar activity fail once. If not enough people join up though, you credit card is not charged, so you are not out any money.

Same here. The ones I receive are all dining or massages or spa or picture framing, or something... I have benefited handily with the dining ones. (Perhaps Boston hotels just don't have to do such deals? Conversely, spas and massage parlors don't get into Hotwire or PriceLine.)

Every deal I've looked at has made its threshold. There's also the other end of Groupon, and here's an interesting discussion about it:

This was, in part, a propos of Groupon selling 3161 Groupons for a small Japanese restaurant in Boston.

Indeed. ^ When I first saw this, I thought/hoped it meant the exquisite little place on the Crane mansion property down in Ipswich. I do wonder geographically how distant Groupons will get from the base cities where they're offered. But I hope this gets the juices going among other lodging places in New England.

Omni Mt Washington Resort is back. $129/nt, some blackout dates.

There's some prety unfavorable reviews of people having trouble booking this and others of being treated poorly, like second-class guests, so YMMV, but it's s nice hotel otherwise.
