findit Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Just booked the hotel using the HOTWIRE link on this site. Holiday Inn Express Deerfield, 2600 Lake Cook Road, Riverwoods,IL,60015Amenities:Smoke Free RoomsComplimentary BreakfastFitness CenterPool(s)Restaurant(s)Business CenterLaundry FacilitiesHigh-speed Internet Access This is on the official "family visit" weekend for Northwestern University. The hotels in Evanston have more than tripled the price they will accept for this weekend (if they have any left).And when bidding on Priceline for the Evanston/Skokie hotels, they would not accept a bid twice as much as a usual winning bid.I will drive 12 to 15 min for this $44 a night hotel.

AaronJB Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Congratulations on your success. :)Excellent deal for this property! I've gone past it a couple of times and while I haven't stayed there, it looks like a very nice HIE. Excellent location, as well - you could take Lake Cook to Waukegan, then Waukegan South to Glenview Road, Glenview Road East (which becomes Wilmette Ave) to Green Bay Road, then South. I'll also recommend Hackney's - which is just a few feet South on Harms from the intersection of Glenview Road/Harms. Additionally, Glenview Road also goes right by Wagner Farm, which is a working farm that's free to visit in the 'burbs.

findit Posted November 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 Just spent a night at Holiday Inn Express Deerfield Nov 13 for $44 (2 Queens) via HOTWIRE. Excellent breakfast with a great deal of variety. Hotel was clean, quiet, and well run. Link to comment
