Priceline Hotel: 4* Mag Mile / River North

[hubie]

I need a hotel fri/sat (oct 16-18) in Chicago River North / Mag Mile

I have never used free re-bid zones (i understand how they work - i think. i read the thread on it)

I would like to keep my price under $90

It must be in this zone.

Thank you so much, I will use the PRICELINE links on this site

PS - is there a lincoln park zone? I dont see any priceline hotels for this zone on this website...

Good point, it's been almost a year, but I dug up my emails from priceline and updated my london 08 trip.

Let me know when you get a chance regarding my chicago trip!

If you use this PRICELINE link, enter "Chicago", you will see a Lincoln Park zone, but the highest star rating currently available in this zone is 2.5* and we don't see much if any bidding in this area.

Based upon current rates i don't think your maximum bid of $90 is realistic... have you checked hotel direct rates for these dates? If you want to give it a go anyway:

At the 4* level in Chicago you have FIVE re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.

Select 4* NMA-River North...

Bid $65, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $70, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $75, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $80, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $85, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $90

Any questions feel free to ask.

I wouldn't recommend intentionally (using it for anything but a rebid) bidding for the Lincoln Park Zone, given the fact that there are very few hotels in the area and the lack of inventory often leads to minimal discounts - there are better deals to be had downtown.

there's a 3.5* in the NMA region on HOTWIRE showing up at 79$, might be worth a look. And if you'Re willing to go to around 100$ before taxes, then you might not have that much problem as rates on HOTWIRE for your zone seems to be around that range for a 4* hotel.

I couldnt get anything within my price range for this trip, so I stayed with friends.
