Hotwire Hotel: Chicago Dec 5 - 9 - amazing rates! need some guidance

[Pam1951]

Will be in Chicago for wedding and need hotel room somewhere downtown. Just checked and for the neighborhood Magnificent Mile North Water Tower there is 3* hotel for $58 night - says 95% positive reviews. Has indoor pool, business center, fitness center, laundry, restaurant, free internet. Any reason I should be nervous about this? Then another 3.5* Magnificent Mile River North for $82 again 95% positive reviews with fitness ctr, business ctr, restaurant, pool, high speed internet. Again what gives, these rates are cheaper than what a comfort inn costs in my small Ohio town. Thanks for any guidance

Welcome to Betterbidding.

This is generally a fairly low-key period in the city with cool temps (although you never know with Winter in Chicago), so these rates are not unusual.

The 3.5* Mag Mile-RN is likely the Doubletree. My guess is that the 3* Mag Mile-RN may be a new amenity set for the Four Points Mag Mile.

I will say I'm seeing a 4.5* in the Mag Mile-RN area for $95 (you may see a slightly different rate) w/Restaurant, Fitness, Free Internet, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, Laundry, Spa, Blind Accessible, Deaf Accessible, Travel Accessible, Room Accessible, Bathroom Accessible, Handicapped Parking, Roll-in Shower. That would be a possible match for the James, which - for not much more than the potential Doubletree per night - would be a nice upgrade.

Please let us know if you have any questions.
