Need help identifying this Hotwire Hotel: 4*Mag Mile/Streeterville for $126 per night for 11/27. Fitness Center, Restaurant, Business Center, & High Speed Internet. 90% Recommended. Thanks

So here is what I have so far: 11/26 - Priceline accepted a bid for a 4* in the loop (Hyatt Regency) for $62. I then called the Hyatt and made a reservation for 11/27 using my mom's AARP rate of $269. PRICELINE did offer me the ability to extend my stay to Saturday night but they offered it at $345 with tax included. I decided to go with the "cancellable" rate for Saturday and figured I would try to extend my stay again via PRICELINE as the date draws nearer (perhaps some rooms will be released or something). If not I will just keep the rate I have for Saturday and call it good. Thanks to all for your help and suggestions.

We are driving in and I need the Saturday night for sure. I spose I could add Wednesday night to try to get the same deal the previous poster did I figure I have a few days to get something figured out :)

I have added the loop to my bid up to $125 for Fri & Sat. I have added it for the 25th to 28th for up to $70 and still denied. I don't really want to split because we have a toddler and moving hotels with all that gear is a pain. Thanks.

I just tried and was still denied. I even tried adding the 25th to my reservation thinking that might help but no dice.

Just an update in case anyone else is trying for these dates... I bid as high as $140 for a 3.5 or 4 star on NMA and was still denied.

I've bid as high as $125 and would prefer to stay under $150 total with taxes. I'm not sure if this is realistic for this time period or not. My absolute max would be $175 a night. Also, I'd like to stay at a 4 star or possibly a 3.5 star. I don't like the hotels that get included in the 3 stars so I don't want to go that low. As a last resort I'd bid the loop area. Thanks

Has anyone had any success with PRICELINE in obtaining a room for the Thanksgiving holiday weekend? I have tried a number of different scenarios with no luck. On previous Thanksgiving weekends I have been successful but things seem much more expensive this year. Thoughts or strategies I should pursue? Thanks!
