oshelef Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 Hi,I'm looking at a 3* mag mile hotel on hotwire. Any idea what it might be? It doesn't seem to match any on the list:3*, Magnificent Mile Area - Streeterville, complimentary breakfast, fitness center, business center, high speed internet.I'm splitting it with a colleague, so we'd need 2 beds. Another option that is only a bit cheaper than the traditional reservation I have is 3.5*, Magnificent Mile Area - Streeterville, Suite, breakfast, fitness, pool, restaurant, business center, high speed internet.That looks like it might be the embassy suites Downtown Lakefront. So I doubt I could get 2 beds, right?Edit: When I search for 3 people, the 3.5* hotel disappears completely, but the 3* is there for just a couple bucks more (it's also there for 4 people, so I doubt it is a one regular bed + rollaway)Thanks.

AaronJB Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 Welcome to the site. :)The 3.5* would likely be the Embassy. while the 3* would likely be the Holiday Inn Express Cass.The issue with looking up 2 people is that, even at an Embassy Suites property, it still doesn't guarantee 2 beds. 2 beds is only a guarantee if you look up 3+ people, and even then the hotel can still say that 1 bed and 1 sofabed is 2 beds.You can call the hotel and ask for 2 beds, but that is just a "request" and not guaranteed.That said, I would still suggest going for the Embassy, as that would be a much nicer option than the basic Holiday Inn Express.Please use the site's HOTWIRE link to start your purchase.
