AaronJB Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 I'm seeing: 4* Loop - Millennium Park for $98.00 Pet Friendly Boutique Smoke Free Fitness Restaurant Hi-Speed Internet Golf Spa Bathroom Accessible Roll-in Shower ==> Guess would be the Allegro 4* Loop - Millennium Park for $94.00 Pet Friendly Boutique Smoke Free Fitness Restaurant Hi-Speed Internet Golf Blind Accessible Deaf Accessible Travel Accessible Room Accessible Bathroom Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower ==> I'll guess this may be the Blackstone. Would either of these properties be of interest? Thank you for keeping us updated and please let us know if we can be of any further assistance.

allstar13 Posted July 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 I just searched using Hotwire's Easy View. I still see the 2 hotels I listed above, and also these two: 4* 146.00 Loop - Millennium Park Amenities Include: Free Internet, Fitness center, Business center and more... (75% recommended) FULL AMENITIES: Free Internet, Boutique hotel, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Restaurant(s), Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access, Golf nearby and 4.5* 146.00 Loop - Millennium Park Amenities Include: Internet access, Pet friendly, Fitness center and more... (95% recommended) FULL AMENITIES: Pet friendly, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Restaurant(s), Internet access, Spa services I'm up for staying at one of the better hotels in the Loop/Millenium Park area. I would prefer the Palmer, but any of these would probably work. Link to comment

allstar13 Posted July 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 How is the Kimpton Allegro? Link to comment
AaronJB Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 The Allegro is a nice property, but is a somewhat more basic property than the other three Kimptons in Chicago (the 4.5* Palomar, Gray and Monaco.) If had at the right price, it's a good "just looking for a place to sleep" option. Additionally, the Allegro is a trek to Michigan Ave and a lot of other tourist destinations. There's also not much going on around the Allegro at night. Additionally, on Saturday (and especially Sunday) there are a lot of things nearby (even things like Starbucks) that are closed. Are you still seeing the potential Allegro when searching for these dates? The area around (and North) of the river has more going on at night. River North has a wide variety of restaurants/nightlife, as well. Let us know more about what you are looking for in terms of hotel (budget, desired star rating, do you need to be in a particular area, etc) and we would be happy research and make suggestions.
