try to set the CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER something like this:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, Array("User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.15) Gecko/20080623 Firefox/2.0.0.15") );

Here ya go...
you need to add an _type variable to your request.
right after currency code and before xml=...
add &_type=xml so:
...&locale=en_US&currencyCode=USD&_type=xml&xml=<HotelListReq...
&_type=xml will give you an xml response type.
