Priceline Hotel: 4* Chicago (NMA-River North) Avenue Crowne Plaza

[Shaun00013]

Used the PRICELINE link here and bid $95 for NMA only 4* for 7/3-7/5. Offer was declined. Going to keep upping bid daily. I will keep my favorite website BB updated as I go!

Are you adding free rebid zones and increasing your bid? There are many free rebid combinations you can create in Chicago if you are looking for 4* hotels. See the main forum page and read the Priceline tips for explanation.

Also, what is your maximum bid for this stay?

Thanks for using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding :)

Final outcome!

After original bid, I received an email saying that 4* rooms in NMA had recently been won for $126. Sunday, I bid $108, declined. This morning I bid $116 and was declined, but was told that I would be able to pay $133. I declined. I bid again using advice here, by adding Hyde Park (no 4* rooms). My bid of $126 was accepted! I got the Crowne Plaza Avenue Chicago! $252 total, $48.40 in taxes/fees for a total of $300.40. I'm very happy with the hotel and with the win.
