Zoe-the-dog Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Love these boards you have here and the list but am having trouble IDing this hotel.Amenities: Smoke free rooms, Fitness center, Pool, Restaurant, Business Center, High Speed internet, Tennis nearbyI may be having a senior moment but I cant seem to match this one to a name. Would appreciate any help and will, of course, use the site's PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links.ThanksPS First time to Chicago. Picking a hotel has been tricky...! Link to comment
AaronJB Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Welcome to Betterbidding. :)This listing has not yet been ID'd/reported to the board, but my guess is that this may be the Crowne Plaza Avenue downgraded to 3.5* from the previously reported 4*. There are some slightly better and/or different deals when looking at 11/9-11 and 11/11-12 separately, but moving hotels in the middle of November is not the most optimal; if this is of interest, let me know and I'd be happy to offer suggestions.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

Zoe-the-dog Posted October 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Thanks for your insight. The prices have all been lowered slightly during that period now and I think there's a 3.5* on the mag/mile for $119 which is perhaps the double tree. I'm also considering moving hotels during the trip but to convince the hubby to do so I may have to find hotels in close proximity to one another. I'm going to mull it over and keep watch on prices for a few days, but if you happen to have spotted a better deal then I'd appreciate your advice! Link to comment
AaronJB Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Well, this would be an option:11/9-11:3.5* Mag Mile/Streeterville: fitness, business, restaurant, internet, pool - $101.4* Mag Mile/Streeterville: Boutique, smoke-free, fitness, restaurant, business, internet, $134. This would be a possible match for the Sax, Palomar or Felix - I'd lean towards the Sax, but it could be any of the three.Average per night = $112.You could also use PRICELINE and try to get the per night average even lower (for either one part or both parts of the stay separately) Please let us know if you are interested in trying this. The issue with using PRICELINE is that you could end up anywhere within the zone (and the worst case scenario with splitting your stay within the NMA-River North area is a fairly mild cab ride if you ended up on opposite ends of the zone.)Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

Zoe-the-dog Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Thanks for this. Every day these dates have different pricing and availability. HOTWIRE has now become a form of entertainment for me. Still haven't made a decision to put money down yet but am getting there... Link to comment
