QueensU Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Hi there,Hoping to get some advice for bidding in Chicago for July 1-2. I'm not sure what prices are in the city given it's a long weekend.I'm attending a wedding at the Hotel Intercontinental, so would like to stay in the Michigan Ave/Downtown core.Thanks for your help!

GM Mike Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Note that thereuare has posted a reply in your LAS VEGAS thread -- please respond to it, even if you've had a change of plans.For your Chicago stay, what is your backup plan? Do you have a cancellable reservation somewhere else? Obviously North Michigan Avenue (NMA) is an acceptable zone for you. Is The Loop also acceptable? What quality *-levels are acceptable? What's your maximum bid?With that information, we can suggest a strategy for you. Link to comment
QueensU Posted March 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 Thanks for the heads up on the LV thread.I don't have a back up plan right now. I will book a hotel if necessary that is cancellable to ensure that I have a place to stay.I'm looking for a hotel that is 4*. In terms of location, I'm guessing The Loop or NMA. Maximum bid: I was hoping to get something in the $100/night range. Is that doable for a long weekend?Thanks for your help! Link to comment

QueensU Posted September 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Didn't end up going through priceline since the hotel rates were quite high. Link to comment
