Sorry. The dates of the stay are 7/28-7/30. These are the amenities: Boutique Hotel, Smoke Free, Fitness Center Restaurant(s), High-Speed Internet Access, Spa Services I used the hotel list to figure out the hotel before I purchased. The Spa and Boutique icons gave me confidence to purchase.

Was having difficulty finding something using PRICELINE as I wanted to avoid the Financial District. Very pleased with the location and price. Use the HOTWIRE link at the top of the site.

Did a bit of research on here and bid up to $100 in $5 increments from $80. Used the PRICELINE link from here. Looks to be a good deal on the hotel as the total with taxes right at $131. I messed up on the title: the dates were 10/27-10/28

I'm very excited as I was prepared to pay much more given the demand there appears to be for this weekend. I forgot to use the PRICELINE link this time, but I have used it for the bulk of my past priceline bookings.

Especially good deal considering that there seem to be a number of massive conventions going on around this time.

Just completed my stay a few days ago and can say that I was pleasantly surprised. I used the kiosk to self check in and was given a single bed on the 15th floor. Room was clean and didn't look old as some of the reviews i found online stated. The room even had a plasma tv. The bathroom was small, but not that small. Lobby was large and actually impressive. Very good location as well (42 and park). Well worth the money spent.

Bid $145 in the MTE area based on some of the post I read here. I Was hoping for the intercontinental, but got the Grand Hyatt. Bid accepted immediately. Ive read some reviews and it appears that the Grand Hyatt might not be worth the $379 that is being charged for a room on other sites. I think this is a good deal for less than $180 with taxes et al. :) Oh, I followed the link for priceline provided by the site.

I tried several times to win the 4* conrad et al. but had difficulty. I bid up to $110 in the loop and NMA using skokie and mdw as rebid zones and had no luck. It seems that there are huge conventions in town this weekend ( http://www.choosechicago.com/events/Pages/calendar.aspx ) In any event, i just checked the Marriott website and this room is going for $269 so I am happy :) :) .
