First, I wouldn't recommend staying in this zone unless needed (going to a convention at McCormick, for example). This could be the Hilton or Hyatt McCormick, as both have come up with this amenity set. Without a tripadvisor rating, there's no way to know for sure which is showing (and if this is the Hyatt, it's definitely not a convenient location unless you're attending a convention.)

That said, in this case, I have a feeling that this may be the Hyatt McCormick. Plus, the Hyatt is $83.45 on Orbitz for these dates, plus an extra 10% off with the REVIEW10 coupon = $83.45 - 10% = about $75.11. Essentially the same price as the HOTWIRE listing.

Personally, I'd rather recommend trying $75 for a Millennium Park-Loop-Grant Park hotel on PRICELINE than taking this listing. Or consider the $79 3.5* in the Loop area on HOTWIRE instead.

Please use the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchase.

started bid low at $60 and moved up every $5 until finally taken at $85. Was really hoping for Palmer House Hilton but got the Hilton on South Michigan Ave.

Seems like an expensive Saturday night compared to other Saturday night deals I've gotten recently.

I used the PRICELINE link on better bidding to make my purchase!

Congratulations on your success. :)

Glad you were able to get this property via PRICELINE, and for quite a good rate, considering the regular rate for these dates (which are a little on the expensive side - possibly Christmas shopping.)

Thank you for sharing your win with the board and using the PRICELINE link. :)

Enjoy your stay.
