Hotwire Hotel: 4.5* Hotel McCormick Place - South Loop - Soldier Field

[kbx24]

Hey everybody,

I've been looking at Hotwire and Priceline express the last few days for a hotel in downtown Chicago. However there's a hotel that is 4.5* stars with the following amenities:

 

Free Internet

Indoor Pool(s)
Fitness Center
Restaurants

Business Center

Wheelchair accessible

I'm planning to book from 10/23 - 10/25. The location on Hotwire is "McCormick Place - South Loop - Soldier Field"

Also I'm wondering if I should hold out on a different deal because $155 a night for a 4.5* hotel sounds like a good deal to me. Thanks in advance!

Welcome to Betterbidding.

 

This would likely be the Hyatt McCormick. There's really nothing directly around this property aside from the convention center - it's primarily for people who are coming for a convention. If you're primarily going to be in the Loop/on Michigan Ave, you're either going to have to take a taxi or take the Metra from McCormick Place. It's not walkable from the Hyatt to downtown. This may be cheaper, but from a tourist standpoint, you're going to have to take transportation everywhere.

 

I'm seeing a 4.5* for $195 in the Mag Mile-RN area w/Boutique, Restaurant, Fitness, Free Internet, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, Spa, Blind Accessible, Deaf Accessible, Travel Accessible, Room Accessible, Bathroom Accessible, Handicapped Parking, Roll-in Shower, Pet Friendly.

-- This is a possible match for the James. While unfortunately more expensive, far better location.

 

I'm very familiar with the area - let me know if you have any hotel or city questions before booking.
