Hotwire Hotel: Need Help ID 4* Mag Mile-River North $112

[Jerseyguy]

Dates: 5/10/13 to 5/12/13

4* Magnificent Mile/River North Area

Amenties are: Indoor Pool, Smoke-free, fitness, resturant, business center.

NO Trip Advisor :-(

Based on the list, my guess is the Sheraton in that area.

Thanks.

Are you also seeing pool (in addition to indoor pool) and internet amenities? If so, my guess would be the Sheraton. Any which way, during the busier Spring season I wouldn't wait on a 4* listing for $112, which is the cheapest downtown 4* listing by about $30 that I'm seeing for these dates.

Yeah I do see both pool and internet and I missed the trip-advisor rating which is 4 out of 5 which does match the Sheraton. Guess its a good educated guess (the most you can have on HOTWIRE) that it is the Sheraton.

Thanks Aaron and thereuare.

You could also try bidding to see if you could get a 4* in the River North-NMA area in the $80-95 range, although you may get something other than the Sheraton.

Just waiting on my job to approve my time off, I hope that comes soon. I'm going to try PRICELINE and with 7 free bid zones I'm going to try $75-95 in the Loop Grant Park Zone (because the RN/NMA area doesn't guarantee a 7+ Priceline rating). If I do choose to try the RN/NMA zone will I be able to close my browser and re-choose the 7 free bid zones or I will only get the 1 additional bid zone?

[thereuare]

If you close your browser and re-start with only the RN/NMA zone selected you'll then be able to re-bid with the other zones, just as you had previously... but you can also get one additional re-bid by adding the Loop zone (since you know no hotels in that zone will accept your bid based upon your rejections immediately prior)

Once your vacation time is approved if the above doesn't make sense just post back and/or ask questions and we'll outline a strategy for you to follow.

It's been 3 years so I'm not totally sure but I believe I stayed at the Hilton Chicago on a promotion for $99 a night
