Hotwire Hotel: 3.5* Chicago (Airport OHare ORD South) Sheraton Gateway Suites

[dmleach]

This was the only 3.5* hotel listed for that weekend in the O'Hare South area. I was hoping it was the Crowne Plaza, since that's adjacent to the Rosemont Convention Center. Ah, well; the price you pay for saving some cash, right?

Thank you for sharing your results with the board, sorry you were hoping for a different property.

If you consult the board's Hotwire Hotel List for this area you'll see the Crowne Plaza also has had a Laundry icon associated with it, so that would have been a clue that this may have been a different property. Feel free to ask the board for help before your next purchase and we'll try to help you take a guess as to what you may be receiving and/or confirm what you think you may be offered.

Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

Enjoy your stay.

Oh, no worries. There's a certain risk you take booking through a site like HOTWIRE that you're going to end up someplace other than your first pick. BetterBidding takes a lot of that risk away, but there's always some left over.

As you point out, the amenities listed on this website for the Crowne Plaza are:

Shuttle, Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Business, Laundry

The ones for the Sheraton Gateway Suites on Hotwire are:

Shuttle, Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Business

Since the Crowne Plaza was the only 3.5* hotel listed on this site for the O'Hare South zone, I made the assumption that the hotel had discontinued their guest laundry service, and that this site was simply out of date. I'll certainly use this as a cautionary tale the next time I use this site: second guess BetterBidding at your own peril! :)
