Hotwire Hotel: Help with Unknown 4* Hotel at Oak Brook/Downers Grove

[T Man821]

Hi there

We are travelling to Chicago from thursday Sept 20 to Sunday Sept 23rd. Have 2 young kids so would like to stay in a nice hotel in the Lombard or Downers Grove area.

Any tips on which hotels are classified as 4* in this area and what type of $$ should I be bidding based on recent wins.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks very much

Welcome to Betterbidding. :)

In terms of which hotels are possible, there is a list of hotels at the top of each state sub-forum. The list of PRICELINE properties reported to the board in Illinois can be found here: Priceline Hotel List.

What would be your desired budget per night for this stay? Additionally, PRICELINE only guarantees one bed/double occupancy; two beds can be requested with the hotel. This is likely less of an issue with suburban hotels, but there is still the risk. HOTWIRE is a better choice in this case, as you can indicate the amount of people in the room and guarantee some form of bedding for the entire party.

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

Thanks for the quick response and priceline hotel list.

Looks like there are 3 hotels with a 4* rating. Westin (Lombard); Hyatt Lodge or Renaissance. The latter 2 were previously listed as 3* but have now been moved up to 4*. I cant seem to find anything on the renaissance. Not sure if it is now closed.

We would be looking to spend from $100 to $125 if there is good feedback on all 3. Any tips on what we should bid?

Thanks for your help.

This listing has not yet been ID'd/reported to the board. It may be a downgraded Westin, or a different property not yet reported to the board. However, it does get solid reviews from Tripadvisor reviewers, as well as HOTWIRE customers.
