Priceline Hotel: 5* Chicago (North Michigan Ave - River North) Park Hyatt Chicago

Hi, I'm new to the site and looking to find my first deal. I need a 5* hotel for tomorrow night, Friday 1/3-1/4 in the River North, Mag Mile areas. I've stayed at Peninsula, Ritz, Park Hyatt, etc and paid mostly full price, but I'm looking to save a few bucks but maintain that same level of accommodations. I live in Chicago, so parking is not an issue. Free Wifi is not important. I just need a high end hotel with good room service. No other amenities are really important to me.

I did a search on Priceline (using the site's link) and found a PRICELINE EXPRESS deal in Chicago North Michigan Ave - River North Area for $214/night. I'm wondering what hotel this is and if I can do better, maybe in the $175 range? I also see good deals on Hotel Tonight for the Ivy or PUBLIC, which are not 5*, but I may be willing to try those for such a low cost if they are still available tomorrow morning when I need to book.

This is the amenities list for the Priceline Express deal at $214/night

Guaranteed Amenities:

Free Internet in public areas

Indoor Swimming Pool

Pets Allowed

Business Center

Fitness Center

Welcome to BetterBidding!

My guess for the 5* PRICELINE EXPRESS property would be the Park Hyatt. If you would like to try bidding on PRICELINE for a lower price, keep in mind that you may receive some other 5* hotel in the zone, not necessarily the same property that is currently offered thru PRICELINE EXPRESS.

Let us know how you'd like to proceed, and if by bidding on PRICELINE, if you'd like a suggested bidding strategy let us know your maximum bid and we will advise accordingly.

Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.

Thanks for the fast response! This is a great resource. I think I'd like to try bidding, just to see how it goes. Let's say $185 is my max for 5* in River North. How should I bid? I'm supposed to add other zones if my initial bid is not accepted. I've looked, and I see no other 5* hotels in Chicago at those dates, so I can add any zone to the next bid, correct?
