darkchylde Posted July 21, 2006 Report Posted July 21, 2006 the amenities are.. airport shuttle, fitness center, pool, restraunts and business center.. Hotwire lists it at $70 a night.. I am looking for one close to the convention center.. according to distance its says its between 0.0 and 6.2 miles.. any idea which one this is?
thereuare Posted July 21, 2006 Report Posted July 21, 2006 From the Hotwire Hotel List this i a match for the Hilton, Hyatt, and the Westin... so any of those three would be our best guess.Please use this HOTWIRE link to begin any purchases you make.Good Luck and let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

darkchylde Posted July 21, 2006 Author Report Posted July 21, 2006 ok will do.. the hyatt would obviously be my choice as it being the closest to the convention center..if I used priceline instead would I get a better deal? although the $70 a night for those hotels seems like a great deal.Oh also how close are the star ratings to others sites.. The wyndam hotel is similar to what this is discribing but most other sites only list this as a 3 star hotel.. the only reason I ask is beacause you can go directly to their web site and get it for $79 a night..
thereuare Posted July 21, 2006 Report Posted July 21, 2006 Priceline is usually a bit cheaper than HOTWIRE, but with hotwire you have the advantage of knowing the amenities offered (and hopefully taking an educated guess at the identification of the property).If price is more important let us know your maximum bid and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.

darkchylde Posted July 21, 2006 Author Report Posted July 21, 2006 price isnt the most important but its up there... distance to the con would be most important very closely followed by price.. right around 70 would be the max.. I would obiviously prefer to spend less..
thereuare Posted July 21, 2006 Report Posted July 21, 2006 When bidding 4* in Chicago you have two re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.Select 4* ORD...Bid $55, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $60, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* ORD and re-bid zone2...Bid $65, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $70.Any questions feel free to ask.Good Luck and let us know how it goes.

planojim Posted July 21, 2006 Report Posted July 21, 2006 is there a convention going on at that time? If so, you are most likely looking at the Hilton Ohare.Or at least that's what I got.
darkchylde Posted July 22, 2006 Author Report Posted July 22, 2006 yes the wizard world comic book convention.. I am attending that weekend and looking to be as close as I can to the convention center.
darkchylde Posted July 22, 2006 Author Report Posted July 22, 2006 ok.. the hilton ohare accepted a bid of $55
thereuare Posted July 22, 2006 Report Posted July 22, 2006 Congratulations on your win.This is an excellent rate for these dates. Hope this works well for your plans.Enjoy your stay. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
darkchylde Posted July 22, 2006 Author Report Posted July 22, 2006 Thanks .. It should.. now I only have to worry about parking but that is another topic alltogether. :)
GM Mike Posted July 23, 2006 Report Posted July 23, 2006 The airport's economy parking lot just reopened, for $9.00 per day. You'd take a shuttle bus to the internal airport train system to the terminal area. The Hilton is inside the airport.
darkchylde Posted July 23, 2006 Author Report Posted July 23, 2006 Thank you... the hotel parking is $38 a day. I didnt want to have to pay that much..
