2* (Moderator, I forgot to put star level in the topic, please fix this for me) Paid $59.00 per night for two nights = $139.41 total. Holiday Inn Express Toronto-North York, ON Hotwire hot Rate 30 Norfinch Drive, North York,ON,M3N 1X1 (416) 665-3500 Map Check-in Fri, Jul 30, 2010 Check-out Sun, Aug 1, 2010 Amenities Complimentary Breakfast Business Center Laundry Facilities High-speed Internet Access A sweet deal for my nephew and his new wife. They're thrilled as am I.

I stayed at the Delta Chelsea at the end of May, 2010 and was very pleased. My experience with the Delta Hotel chain is that if you are a Delta Preference member and call ahead to the hotel (not the central booking centre) to ask that your member # be attached to your file, they obligingly upgrade you and add the perks that come with membership. And membership is free. At the Chelsea there is a separate check in area for members so I went there, reiterated my request for an upgrade, and received a deluxe room, with balcony and free Internet. They couldn't have been nicer, even though they knew I reserved through Priceline. The lobby is huge with multiple restaurants and bars. I especially liked the cafeteria style cafe with a courtyard attached for outdoor dining. It's a nice little oasis in the middle of the city. The lobby opens onto 4 city streets with Elm St. offering many choices of restaurant. A friend and I ate at Donatello and found it excellent both for the Italian food and value. My room was most adequate, clean, comfortable bed, balcony door to leave open for fresh air, modern and well maintained. I even walked to the hotel from the train station with my rolling carry on size suitcase with me and did the same when leaving. Next month I will arrive by bus and was thrilled when I discovered that the bus terminal is just a few blocks away. I'm going back in July

The amenities listed for the Delta Chelsea on Hotwire were smoke fee, gym,pool,business centre and high speed internet. But, I should add that the day before, I offered Priceline $60.00 for what was likely the Chelsea and was told that If I increased my bid by $15.00, I would have it. I didn't, completely forgot about this, and reserved through Hotwire at a higher price. I don't know where my head was!!!! My only consolation is that I got the property I wanted at a fraction of the Delta site price. I love the hotel so will do a quick review now.

I wanted the Delta Chelsea so thanks to everyone here for providing info. that almost assured me of this.

I bid the day before and they did the usual "If you can raise your bid". So I went from $60.00 to $72.00 and got a great deal. We were even upgraded because we are Delta members. No complaints here!

I used this forum and the PRICELINE links here to book and to know going price. I haven't been here for awhile and see many improvements. I'm impressed!

Sorry. I'm on my way out the door so could I please prevail upon you to edit my post to include the dates Sept.17-24, 2006? Many thanks heather

First try. :)
