IBDMC Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Just thought I'd share our Hotwire experience. We stayed on a Friday and Sat. last month, June, in Chicago. We went to Hotwire the night before and didn't find anything interesting enough, but the next morning the 107 4* appeared, so I did a little research, thanks to this site, and I came to the conclusion that it was the Hyatt Downtown. Sure enough, that's what it was. It's an okay place, but the price was right. We also upgraded when we got there for 15/night to a view room that was on the corner in the West Tower, which is quieter than the main lobby tower. The place is huge.Parking was 39 bucks a day, but there is a cheaper lot in the area, so I'm told. We just spent the 39 bucks because I had stuff in my car to secure. If you do drive, enter the garage yourself from the West Tower. Do not :) go into the main lobby area, if at all possible. It is full of taxis and cars and a cluster. Enter the garage and they will valet your car and call you a bell hop. Much more efficient this way.DMC Link to comment

IBDMC Posted July 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Sorry, it wasn't a Fri. and Sat. it was June 7, 8, 2006 and that is Wed. and Thurs. It was on Wacker Drive. I couldn't remember the street. Amenities, I believe, were fitness center, restaurant and maybe one other thing, but I don't recall. Hope this clears things up better. DMC Link to comment

IBDMC Posted July 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Oh, yes, Business Center. So restaurant, business center, fitness center. How could I forget! Instead of getting out my notebook computer, I just wanted to look something up real quick and they wanted seven bucks for 15 minutes. DMC Link to comment
