I was at the Chicago Millenium Knickerbocker for a night on 1/15. I got the room on my first try - priceline NMA at $70. Sometimes staying a single night in the middle of the week in minus 20 weather has its bidding advantages. I had a standard room with king sized bed. I can't remember the floor or room number but it was very nice. Sheets, towels seemed luxury, the room had modern touches but the hotel felt older, grand lobby, older exterior, etc. Bar was very nice but I didn't eat at the hotel so I cannot address food quality. Location was ok. I was 4 blocks from where I needed to be - just lucky there. If your plans include North Michigan then it is a great location. It is a block to Hancock Bldg. and close to shops on Rush St. I would stay there again, especially for the price.

Wow - I wish I had found this site a long time ago! I just returned from 2 nights at the Chicago Hyatt Regency Loop (2/11 and 2/12). I got the $70 PRICELINE rate on my first bid. I have been using priceline for a few years, and have gotten the Hyatt Regency twice before, both times at about the same rate. I have always been happy with it, but this was the best. We got into town late on Wednesday. Service was great - in fact we were upgraded to the Regency Club room, for no extra cost. Room on the 35th floor, we needed to use our key to get floor access. The view was stunning and room was high quality. We didn't have much opportunity to enjoy the perks of the "club" but everything was quiet, high end, and great service all around.
