Priceline Hotel: 11/24-25 4* Chicago Loop Hotel Help Needed

[joon]

Hi, all,

I want to win a bid on a Chicago loop hotel room.

I tried from $85 (4* Millennium park) to $95 (Boutique NMA), but rejected.

I will try again 24 hours later.

Please give me a suggestion for the next bids.

Thank you,

Joon

There's a massive convention that starts on 11/25, so all of those people are coming in the day before and driving up hotel rates for 11/24. Unfortunately, I think it's probably going to take a good deal more to win a hotel via Priceline - the only downtown 4* Hotwire has available is over $300. The cheapest regular rate hotel is $339 (Hilton Towers) and many hotels are either booked up or not accepting guests for 1 night.

If there's any way you can do 11/23-24 instead, then the kind of prices you have bid so far would be much more realistic for a win. You could even bid slightly less if you were trying for 11/23-24.

If you wanted 11/23-24, I'd start with $65 for a 4* in the Millennium Park/Loop/Grant Park area. That may be low, but it's not too far off and you have some time.
