Hotwire Hotel: Trying to nail either Holiday Inn or HI Express for June 4-6 weekend

[hannah610]

Hi Board! I am completely new here, so forgive me if I am being completely naive or asking silly questions!

I am getting married in Urbana, IL in June. I am trying to see if I can help my guests out by being able to bid on the Holiday Inn or the Holiday Inn Express in Urbana. Directly, the hotels aren't offering the best rate in terms of their group rate, so I thought if I could find out if these are options on Hotwire or Priceline I could suggest to my guests that they go through those websites instead.

So far when I look up the wedding weekend on Hotwire, here are my options:

2.5* for $59 / night with amenities complimentary breakfast and high speed internet access

2* for $56/night with laundry facilities only

3* for $99/night with complimentary breakfast, fitness center, pool(s) and high speed internet access (I don't think the Holiday Inn offers free breakfast...)

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!!

Welcome to BetterBidding!

Neither the Holiday Inn or the Holiday Inn Express have been reported to the board in this zone, so it would be difficult to say with any high degree of probability if any of the above these hotels (although you're right that the Holiday Inn doesn't include breakfast, so none of the above would likely be the Holiday Inn)

Are these the only two hotels which would work well for your guests' needs or are there other properties in the area which would also be acceptable?

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases. (and if you direct your guests to these services please ask them to stop by here and use the links at the top of the page to begin their purchases)
