Hello!

 

I'm planning a trip with our family of 4 to Chicago for downtown attractions - Shedd's Aquarium, Maggie Daley Park, Museum of Science & Technology, etc and am looking for a great hotel - 3.5 or great stars for June 18 - 21.

 

It has been a while since I looked into Hotwire (since my before mom days).  I am pleased to see that Hotwire now allows me to look for number of beds vs. just a room.

 

What areas do you suggest for looking for hotels?

 

I did see the following:

$148 - Loop Millennium Park 3.5*

Free Internet, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Internet access, Golf nearby, Accessible for hearing impaired, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible parking

 

What would you think this hotel would be?

 

Other suggestions?

 

Thanks in advance!

I believe there are more amenities then what you have posted above as HOTWIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you search using the EASY VIEW TAB of our BiddingHelper.com tool. (always use this method for your searches/purchases to ensure you're seeing the complete amenity set and for an easy comparison of PRICELINE vs. HOTWIRE, as well as to use our new IS THIS A GOOD PRICE feature).

If you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper.com tool... use the HOTWIRE EASY VIEW tab and then click the GREEN BUTTON next to this listing, do you see more amenities (including any accessible amenities) then what you have listed above? Using this method, below is the full list of amenities i'm seeing for the 3.5 star hotel in this zone when searching for your dates:

 

3.5* HOTWIRE Loop - Millennium Park for $148.00
Free Internet
Boutique
Smoke Free
Fitness
Restaurant
Business
Hi-Speed Internet
Golf
Blind Accessible
Travel Accessible
Room Accessible
Wheelchair Accessible
Bathroom Accessible
Handicapped Parking
Roll-in Shower
==> Hotel Blake, an Ascend Hotel Collection Member would be my best guess for this one

 

Does this work for your needs this trip?

I'd really suggest staying around or to the North of the river. There's really not much going on in parts of the Loop at night/on weekends.

 

I'd rather suggest on HOTWIRE:

 

4* Magnificent Mile  - Water Tower for $160.00
Free Internet
Boutique
Smoke Free
Fitness
Restaurant
Business
Hi-Speed Internet
Golf
Blind Accessible
Deaf Accessible
Travel Accessible
Room Accessible
Bathroom Accessible
Handicapped Parking
Roll-in Shower
==>  This would be a possible match for the Cambria Suites. Right off Michigan Ave; a lot more going on around the hotel. 

 

I'll note the Museum of Science and Industry is a ways South of the city - you can get there by using the Metra train from the millennium park station (http://www.msichicago.org/visit/getting-here/). The Shedd is definitely recommended, but it can get crowded in the Summer - I'll recommend getting there early as it's more enjoyable when there's not crowds around every exhibit. The Lincoln Park Zoo (free) and Peggy Notabert Nature Center (admission) are also recommended family-friendly activities. Please let me know if you have any city questions at all.
