RayandD Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 My fiance' and I are looking for a hotel (preferrably 4*) in the Chicago area. It doesn't necessarily have to be downtown. We are celebrating our aniversary this weekend and want to stay somewhere nice. Any suggestions on where to start looking? Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 Welcome to BetterBidding!You'll need to give us a bit more info...Are you willing to stay in the suburbs? What is your budget? Do you prefer the Loop and/or NMA area?What are your actual check-in/check-out dates?

RayandD Posted January 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 We would like to check-in on the 19th and check-out on the 20th. We are willing to stay in the suburbs. We are not too picky about the location, but would prefer to be no further than 30 minutes from the city. We can go as high as $100, but (of course) would love something cheaper. Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 When bidding 4* in Chicago you have one re-bid zone. 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.Assuming you prefer the city...Select 4* Loop...Bid $45, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $50, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* NMA...Bid $45, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $50, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* Loop and NMA...Bid $55, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $60.Any questions feel free to ask.Good Luck and let us know how it goes.
