Get minimum value for nodes with a given attribute value

Hi everyone

I'll try to keep it simple....  I have some XML of some hotels, and I
would like (using XSL) to write out the minimum price of a room in each
hotel, based on its star rating... and I am presuming I can do floor()
for this.

The bit I am struggling with is the XPATH to say "get me the price for
each of the two star hotels".

If my xml were structured like this:

<hotels>
<hotel rating="2*" price="123.00" />
<hotel rating="2*" price="125.00" />
<hotel rating="1*" price="100.00" />
<hotel rating="4*" price="180.00" />
</hotels>

I know I can select all the 2* hotels with the following:

//hotels/hotel[@rating[.='2*']]

But how can I add to that to get the lowest price for a 2* hotel?  My
guesstimate is something like this:

floor(//hotels/hotel[@rating[.='2*']][@price])

Though this doesn't work!

All help appreciated.

Many thanks

Darren
