AaronJB Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Welcome to Betterbidding.The 4* Mag Mile-RN would be a possible match for the Felix, Sax or Palomar, but I'd lean towards the Felix as being most likely.4* Mag Mile N-WT would be a possible match for the Allerton.Bidding on PRICELINE would be cheaper, but you would have to be willing to accept any 4* in the zone selected.Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

LaserRocketArm Posted July 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Wow thank you for the quick reply. Matching up reviews with TravelAdvisor I came away with Hotel Felix as the most likely as well.I will primarily be visiting Wrigley Field and the Mag Mile area. Reading the forum it looks like you guys know a lot about the Chicago area. Are there any other areas that are within red line walking distance that I should look at for even deeper savings?

AaronJB Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 My apologies - meant to note that the Felix or Sax would be the most likely.The issue with Chicago is that once you get out of the downtown area, there's really little-to-nothing in the way of hotels until you get out to the suburbs. The Lincoln Park area just to the North of the city is very nice, but there's few hotels there and prices are often similar (or sometimes worse) than comparable hotels downtown.If you are okay with possibly any 4* in the River North-NMA area, you could probably get a 4* around $70-85.Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
