Ashman Posted July 23, 2007 Report Posted July 23, 2007 Hello everyone, I am looking for some help on a hotel in the Chicago area. I am coming down for the Football game against the Wolverines and need a hotel for the 28th-30th. I am a college student so I am not looking for super expensive rates, but a 2.5 star and above property would be preferred. Can anyone help me locate something like this in a good neighboorhood?! Thank you so much

Ashman Posted July 24, 2007 Author Report Posted July 24, 2007 Sorry I totally forgot to respond to that one! It's taken care of now, so any help would be greatly appreciated for this Chicago trip!!
thereuare Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 Which zones are you willing to accept. Are you looking to stay "Downtown" or near Evanston?What is your expected maximum budget?Also, just to confirm since you're in college (don't know if undergrad or grad)... are you over 21 (or will be traveling with somebody over 21 years old) Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
Ashman Posted July 24, 2007 Author Report Posted July 24, 2007 I wouldn't mind staying downtown, but I would like to be in an area where I could get to Evanston in less than an hour ( I know from Ohare the El takes about and hour and 10 mins. I would basically like to be nearby or at least somewhere where I can take the El to the stadium. I am 21, and I would say the most I would want to put forth is $80 a night but looking for something a little less than that. Thank you again.

Ashman Posted July 24, 2007 Author Report Posted July 24, 2007 Any of the Chicago Areas are ok... I.E. Loop, Downtown, Northern Mich Ave, and Evanston/Skokie would be good too. If it isn't to far of an El ride from the Ohare airport hotels I could do those also!!
thereuare Posted July 25, 2007 Report Posted July 25, 2007 Greater Chicago, Midway, O'Hare?? These are all priceline zones within the Chicago region as well.Which zones are you able to accept a hotel anywhere within the shaded region of the boundary?

Ashman Posted July 25, 2007 Author Report Posted July 25, 2007 We are now going with friends to the game, and placed a bid on a hotel downtown. The bid was $99, and was accepted for the 4* Hilton Chicago. Sept 28-30 are the dates of travel, the only bad thing is parking will be $40 a night.
AaronJB Posted July 25, 2007 Report Posted July 25, 2007 Park at the Millennium Park garage for $23 a night. That's about 5-6 blocks N of the hotel.
