Gopiku Posted July 11, 2012 Report Posted July 11, 2012 Tried bidding up to $110 last night in NMA and Loop for a 4* in 07/12-07/14 but didn't get anything. Got Hyatt Regency Chicago for $85 for 07/12-07/13.Still trying to see if I can get 07/13-07/14 separately. I figured why give $125 for 07/12 if it's just the Saturday night which is expensive. Changing hotels is a pain though - maybe should have paid the extra $.
AaronJB Posted July 11, 2012 Report Posted July 11, 2012 Congrats on your success. Very nice deal for this well-located Hyatt. Did you try the "extend your stay" feature to see if there was an offer for this property for an additional night?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.
Jty1220 Posted July 11, 2012 Report Posted July 11, 2012 why is this hotel going so cheap? 4star that is listed for over $200 and everyone gets it for 65-85? Wow
AaronJB Posted July 11, 2012 Report Posted July 11, 2012 why is this hotel going so cheap? 4star that is listed for over $200 and everyone gets it for 65-85? WowRates and inventory can vary significantly from day-to-day, so what one user may get for a set of dates does not indicate what may be available for other dates. In general though, this property is the largest hotel in Chicago and with 2,000+ rooms, when it does appear, it often appears for very reasonable rates. It can, however, go for periods without being seen as a win.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
Gopiku Posted July 11, 2012 Author Report Posted July 11, 2012 I didn't try the 'extend your stay' although I looked at it. My reading was that it is just put in as a new bid to see if you get it or not. That was my experience on a past stay as well. That's why I didn't try it but I guess it wouldn't hurt to try. I still do have to put in a bid for 7/13-7/14.
thereuare Posted July 11, 2012 Report Posted July 11, 2012 The advantage of the Extend Your Stay is that it's only checking for this specific property, so no risk in having to change hotels.If you extend the stay please post that result here... if you'd like help with, or to report a win for, your remaining date please start a NEW TOPIC.Please use the requested PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your future travel purchases.Enjoy this first leg of your stay.
