Hi All

 

Need help on bidding on a hotel in Chicago. 

 

Ideally looking for a 4* Hotel in the following areas with a budget of about $120 or lower if possible

 

Millennium Park, Loop & Grant Park Area
North Michigan Ave - River North Area (Preffered)

 

Thanks for your help

Are you willing to pay more to stay in the NMA-River North zone vs. the Loop zone OR is the goal the least expensive 4* or better in either of these zones?

Based on the rates I'm seeing, unfortunately I think a 4* in the Loop may take a bit more than $120 (possibly $125-140), but a 4* in the NMA area may take around $150 ($145-155 +/-)  Are your dates at all flexible? If there was any way you could back up your stay to 9/22-26 instead, there definitely would be options around the $120-125 level on HOTWIRE - and likely less via bidding.

I would prefer the least expensive 4* in those zones, don't have to stay River North zone.

 

I don't mind raising my budget to the $125 to $140 if required. My dates are not flexible unfortunately as the flights in and out are booked. Is there a possibility that rates may fall if i wait till about a month to travel?

 

Thanks for your help

As of this morning I wouldn't be too surprised if it took another $10/nite to succeed at the 4* level, but let's start with the above and we'll take it from there if $140 is turned down.

Any questions feel free to ask.

Sorry to see that you didn't hit anything.

How would you like to proceed?

You still have time on your side. Would you like to wait and try $140 again or would you like to try to close this stay now and raise your budget or lower the star rating for the hotel?

Let us know and we'll go from there.

HOTWIRE has what looks like the Crowne Plaza Metro for $151/nite OR the very well reviewed Hotel Burnham if that is worth the extra $20/nite per nite than you have been bidding.

I'm seeing what appears to be the Crowne Plaza Metro for $151 and what appears to be the Burnham for $161. While unfortunately over your desired budget, I do think the Burnham is absolutely worth the $10 over the potential Crowne Plaza. The Burnham is in one of the city's most architecturally significant buildings, which was carefully restored - it's a unique mix of classic architecture and modern features. It's also a well-reviewed Kimpton property.  The prices you see may differ slightly.
