Hyatt Regency Hotel Chicago

I stayed here for the TravBuddy Meetup in Chicago August 14, 2009.

My winning bid on priceline about a week before the trip was $62.00!

VERY friendly service at checkin, I was still able to collect reward points even though I purchased through priceline.com. Because I allowed the checkin clerk to put me in any kind of room without specific bed requirements she put me on the 19th floor at the end of the hall so it was quiet... had a queen bed, and a wonderful view of both the river and Navy Pier/lakefront. I almost felt guilt since my rate was so cheap for a weekend!

Though there was a huge line at check-in it only took about 5 minutes for check-in to be my turn.

The room was a contemporary design, small but not cramped, beautifully appointed and clean. The bed was so comfortable and the pillows were incredible and perfect.

Bathroom was clean and everything worked properly with a nice design.

My clock was also an iPod docking station, which is a nice feature.

Big flat panel tv, spacious desk, convenient internet connection (for a fee), and efficient a/c.

I was also surprised how quick the elevators were in this hotel.

For those staying out late in the Michigan Ave. area there are not a lot of places to eat after 11pm. I was happy to see that the bar in the Hyatt called BIG served food until midnight. I ordered an individual pizza which was tasty and large enough to share.

I recommend this hotel and I would use priceline again to get the best prices.

September 2008 trip to Chicago.

Okay stay. I did not like how narrow the hallways were. When there is a convention it can be very crowded.
