givings1 Posted July 14, 2015 Report Posted July 14, 2015 Looking for a deal on a popular weekend. The craft beer festival is not driving the prices.
AaronJB Posted July 14, 2015 Report Posted July 14, 2015 Not sure what's going on on these dates - there's a number of minor conventions. However, rates are quite high - a 4* for this night downtown is likely going to take well over $200. What would be your desired budget per night for this stay?

givings1 Posted July 14, 2015 Author Report Posted July 14, 2015 I could go higher, but these are already high rates. Might opt for the burbs, but would rather be downtown for under $135. Will just be patient or do a HOTWIRE deal. Booked Sunday night for $51 at the Rosement Hyatt since I have an early flight out.
AaronJB Posted July 14, 2015 Report Posted July 14, 2015 I usually suggest the North burbs - lot of restaurants and shops, as well as some sights - but if you're flying in/not driving, I'd stick to the ORD area.

givings1 Posted July 15, 2015 Author Report Posted July 15, 2015 Holding out for downtown since it is only one night and don't want a car. Bumped to $146, and $136, respectively. Long short until Friday. Not a win.

Not a win. I see what appears to be the Congress Hotel for $135 on HOTWIRE, but that's not a very good hotel at all and not something I'd recommend. Unfortunately, most other things are likely going to be over $200 or well over $200.

Not the location I want, but will do it for $148 if no luck elsewhere. Just bid $166 4*, and $151 for a 31/2* with no luck.
AaronJB Posted July 16, 2015 Report Posted July 16, 2015 Would really not bid 3.5* in this zone. The Hyatt McCormick would not be a good location but would be okay, the Marriott Medical (3.5*) would not be a good location at all.
