mills014 Posted September 12, 2011 Report Posted September 12, 2011 4.5* hotel in Mag Mile/Streeterville area priced at $253/night for 10/14 to 10/16/11.Amenities:Fitness CenterRestaurantBusiness CenterLaundry FacilitiesHigh Speed InternetSpa Services90% of Hotwire reviews recommend it.I think this is The James, but not certain. This doesn't seem to be the greatest deal in the world either, but what do you think?
AaronJB Posted September 12, 2011 Report Posted September 12, 2011 Welcome to Betterbidding. :)This would be a likely match for the James - rates are definitely high for these dates, so in comparison to regular rates that I'm seeing, if this is the James, it's not a bad deal.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
mills014 Posted September 13, 2011 Author Report Posted September 13, 2011 Thanks, Aaron! Looks like that deal has jumped to $265/night. Still think it's worth it (could get ritz for $309/night and never stayed there so that's the decision--bet on the hotwire deal being The James for $265 or go with certainty of ritz for $309)?
AaronJB Posted September 13, 2011 Report Posted September 13, 2011 I think the Ritz is a solid (especially for dates that are quite busy - a number of properties appear sold out) deal for $309 (it's $329 on Orbitz and coupon code ORBITZ5 takes it down to $309 for a city view superior king room; not sure if that's the same deal you are seeing), and the location behind Water Tower Mall right off Michigan Ave is certainly very nice and quite convenient. A high floor looking North may also have a partial lake view.Please use the site's Orbitz link to book the Ritz deal; please use the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your discount rate purchases and searches.
mills014 Posted September 13, 2011 Author Report Posted September 13, 2011 Just went with the Hotwire deal as the price for the 4.5* hotel dropped back down to $256/night for that weekend. It was indeed The James, so I'm really psyched!Thanks for your help! :)
AaronJB Posted September 13, 2011 Report Posted September 13, 2011 Congrats on your success! :)Very nice deal for this property for a very busy period. Glad you are pleased with the result.Thank you for sharing your win and please use the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches.Enjoy your stay.
