aolss Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 I've never used Hotwire before but looking for hotels for a trip to Chicago July 16-19. We have reservations at a hotel near O'Hare but I'd like to stay somewhere closer to downtown so it's more convenient if we need to go back to the hotel (traveling with young children). I looked at the hotel list at the top of this forum and it appears the hotel I found was the Palmer House Hilton but I just wanted to make sure this seemed reasonable to those who are more experienced. We are driving in so parking is an issue and if I can have a decent idea of the hotel before I book something, I can see what parking will cost there.Thanks in advance for all your help!July 16-194*$94Amenities - fitness center, pool, restaurant, business center, high speed internet accessChicago - LoopAllison Link to comment
AaronJB Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Welcome to the site. :)This would be a match for the Palmer House Hilton. Somewhat less expensive (still expensive, though) parking can be had at the Millennium Park lot nearby.Please use the site's HOTWIRE link to start your purchase.In terms of staying in the suburbs, I'd much rather recommend the North burbs - a lot of nice restaurants, shopping and some sights (Chicago Botanic Garden, which is in a burb.)

aolss Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Thanks for the info about parking! A question about hotel parking - when it says the price per day does that mean a 24 hour day or if we check in on thursday and out on Sunday, we will be charged for each day (Th, Fr, Sa, Su) regardless of the time?Thanks,allison Link to comment
aolss Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Just made my first hotwire reservation! Thanks for all the great information here - I never would have been willing to use it without having an idea of what hotel I would be getting. We'll be at the Hilton Garden Inn (Mag Mile-Streeterville). Amenities - Pool, Fitness Center, Restaurant, Business Center, High speed internetHave to call about self-park, website only mentions valet.Allison Link to comment
