Hello all, A group of us are going to be in town for the Chicago Marathon... would love to stay downtown, but prices are too high for my blood... probably going to have to settle for an Airport hotel and take the "L" into town each day. Because of this, Priceline is probably out since at least with Hotwire, we can make sure we get a place with an airport shuttle. I'm currently leaning towards the 4* Westin/Hilton options listed below - 2 people to a room - both are either at or near an "L" stop, and price reasonable. Looking for help to ID the two 2.5* Hotwire listings in bold below. Best options that I see on Hotwire right now are: 2 people to a room: 4* ORD North -$89/night (match for either Hilton O'Hare or Westin O'Hare) Amenities: Shuttle, Gym, Pool, Restaurant, Business Center & H. S. Internet -or- 2.5* ORD North - $74/night (no match in Hotwire list on this board) Amenities: Shuttle, Free Breakfast, Gym I'd expect this to be probably a Holiday Inn Express, Residence Inn, other? (Note: Best downtown option for these dates is $229/night for 2 people - match for Club Quarters in the Loop) 4 people to a room: 4*ORD North - $149/night (match for same as above) -or- 2.5* ORD North - $86/night (no match in Hotwire list on this board) Amenities: Shuttle, gym, pool, restaurant and laundry facilities (or a 3rd option: 3* ORD North - $89/night with Amenities: Shuttle, gym, pool, restaurant, business center and laundry facilities) (Note: Best downtown option for these dates is $369 - too much!) Any words of advice? We've already tried renting a condo - we're too late for that... all the good ones are gone... B&B's seem full too. We do have a cancellable booking at the Residence Inn O'Hare - 2 bdr rooms for $199/night which is pretty good, but it is a bit more of a pain b/c not as close to an "L" stop... Thanks in advance, Shneebs.
