I doubt that such information was given to any member. I spoke today with the Anagonda manager who is in charge of the European bookings and he confirmed that no such promises were given. They will discuss the matter in the beginning of this coming week. Let's keep the fingers crossed that my presidential suite booking will be honored. It would be a honor for the hotel to have me as a valued guest

Hampton isn't a fair comparison as this is a lesser (sub)brand of Hilton.
, in lieu of any official statement. Will be waiting for further updates, TallestHotelInJapan!

I stand corrected, then. My only trip to Egypt was 15 years ago, but I have no memory of the price at Hilton Nuweiba (much cheaper than the neighboring Eilat, but IIRC more than 40 USD even then). But 23 USD for a double room at Hilton isn't remotely close to the rates in Europe.

Why is that? Wouldn't it be like comparing a flight with Ukraine International Airlines and Egypt Air? Or, are you saying the hotels in Kiev cost the same as hotels in Singapore?

Warsaw's 5 star properties are the cheapest in Europe. But even the lowest 40 EUR is a far cry from 23 USD (nor EUR as I mistakenly wrote above), which is what Hilton Kiev was sold at. This would be unprecedented as far as European (and probably world) pricing is concerned.

It also isn't uncommon for a new hotel to have some rooms at incredibly low promotional opening rates.

HI Express properties are £25/€25.
Holiday Inn £35/€45
Crowne Plaza £45/€45
Hotel Indigo. £65/€65
InterCon. £125/€125
Is Hilton identical to HIX?
As for error rates, at IC Frankfurt or elsewhere, well that's the point -- the rate at Hilton Kiev was a certain error.
