patriciadb Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 My husband and I are going to Chicago 7/29-8/1. I started by bidding (using the Better Bidding link) $80 for a 4* in NMA area, then added Millenium/Loop/Grant Park area, and was rejected both times. I went up to $90 and added 3.5* and still was rejected. Went to $95, and added 3* and got the Courtyard by Marriott Chicago Magnificent mile. Link to comment

buteos Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 I just got back from a three night priceline win stay at this Courtyard Mag Mile. It's actually in Streeterville, but right around the corner from N Michigan Ave. I loved the hotel, and if I ever go back to Chicago, would try to get it again. Service was excellent, as was location. I stayed on the 19th floor which was quiet and had a semi decent view.For breakfast try West Egg right down Ontario St. Plenty of places for dinner, but Bice right across the street had excellent food, and they will do half plates if you ask.

AaronJB Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 Additionally, Fox and Obel Market and Cafe (fox-obel.com) is a short walk to the E on the corner of Illinois and McClurg. West Egg is also a very good suggestion (as mentioned above.)Terrific deal for this Courtyard property, which is the newer of the two downtown Courtyards. Link to comment
