Priceline Hotel: 4* Chicago (Millenium Park - The Loop - Grant Park) The Blackstone Renaissance Chicago Hotel

[tokamak]

Bid on a 4* in this same zone yesterday with no luck up to $135. Tried 3.5* today and got Blackstone Renaissance (listed as a 4* still on Priceline) on the first bid at $100. Total comes to about $118/nt after taxes and fees, compared to $208 on the hotel's website. Obviously I'm thrilled but it's weird to get a 4* when bidding on a 3.5*, especially after no luck just 24 hours ago.

Didn't know whether to put 3.5* (what I was bidding for) or 4* (what I actually got) in the thread title, sorry. Great site, thanks. Used your PRICELINE link as always.

Thank you for sharing your win and using the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches.

Enjoy your stay.

Nice score!

I'm jealous ;). I'm traveling at about the same time and got River North for $126/night from my winning Priceline bid.

Enjoy!

It's another example of how rates, and the hotel received, can vary by including/excluding even just one day... as well as how inventory and rates can change quickly from one day to the next.
