adventuresofjeff Posted March 18, 2017 Report Posted March 18, 2017 Hi there...thanks for this wonderful resource! We are coming to Chicago Aug 17-20/2017 and wondering if you can help with this hotel? FULL AMENITIES: Free Internet, Pet friendly, Boutique hotel, Fitness center, Restaurant(s), Business center, Internet access, Golf nearby, Children's activities, Accessible for visually impaired, Accessible for hearing impaired, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible bathroom, Roll-in shower It seems like a good deal based on current pricing but wondering also if prices will drop closer to August? We are coming to town for a Cubs game and will also be interested in a couple of days just exploring...Thanks again!
AaronJB Posted March 18, 2017 Report Posted March 18, 2017 Welcome to Betterbidding. That mid-August period is generally a little bit busier at times - the Air/Water show is 8/19 & 20. There is no way to know if prices will come down closer to the stay, but in the post-2008 period as demand has ramped up, there have been less in the way of last minute deals and more in the way of prices heading higher. I'm seeing on HOTWIRE: 4.5* Magnificent Mile - Water Tower for $147.00 Free Internet Pet Friendly Boutique Fitness Restaurant Business Hi-Speed Internet Golf Childrens Activities Blind Accessible Deaf Accessible Travel Accessible Room Accessible Bathroom Accessible Roll-in Shower ==> The Sofitel has been seen with this amenity set previously, so that would be my guess. If the Sofitel, that would be a fantastic result, as that's a gorgeous hotel a couple blocks off the center of the Michigan Ave area. There's also a Red Line station a short walk SW. I'm seeing on PRICELINE EXPRESS (please confirm that the correct dates of travel are showing on the detail page after clicking the link below.) 4.5* Downtown - River North for $143 Pets Allowed Business Center Restaurant Free Internet Fitness Center No Smoking Rooms/Facilities >>>This would be a possible match for the Westin River North, which is quite a nice property on the River - there's tons of dining/nightlife options in nearby River North. Plus, if you are going to a Cub's game, this is easy walking distance from a Red Line station. I'm very familiar with Chicago - please let me know if you have any hotel questions before booking and I'd be happy to answer any city questions. Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases.
adventuresofjeff Posted March 18, 2017 Author Report Posted March 18, 2017 Hi Aaron, Thanks for your quick reply. Given it's our first visit would you recommend one of these properties over the other? I have used hotwire before but not priceline - assuming they work similarly... Thanks again Jeff
