It looks like I definitely need to win the contest, so expensive.

just booked the Hyatt Regency for 4 nights....had an awards voucher for 2 free nights, so the $259 nightly rate is easier to fathom.

We booked at Club Quarters for 185 including all taxes and fees. http://www.clubquarters.com/loc_chicago.php Small room but on the red line and in the central loop area. Husband & I were looking for a quieter place where we knew we'd get some sleep after the show.

My sister and I booked at Club Quarters the Loop as well.

Anybody staying at the Hyatt Regency going to the merch tent on Thursday? If you'd be willing to pick up a poster and maybe a shirt or something PM me. We'll be checking in to the hotel sometime Thursday night and we could meet up then, have a drink on me at the hotel bar I'd paypal ahead of time for any merch. Thanks.

aqua blu radison for this guy.

Still looking, times have been tough, any suggestions for the financially strapped?

Check around O'hare. Someone local would have to help you with trains in town and back

Thanks a lot, I originally planned to stay downtown, but like I said, times got tough.

It's insane!! I already have to pay $100 for my roaming package, and now $13 a day for WiFi for 5 nights?? I think I'm going to have a little talk with them when I check in and see if I can't get that comped.

stayed at a marriott and they wanted 10 per day. i called the front desk, played dumb (shut up) about not being able to log on, they told me of the charge, and i was like...you are kidding...right. ultimatly, they gave it to me for free.

or go to starbucks

I used credit card points to get a $25 gift card for hyatt. I'm only gonna be there for 3 nights. I'll just suck it up and pay the difference for two days of wifi, Friday and Saturday. I'll check everything I need to check on my phone on sunday before we leave. Thursday I'll just park my ass in whatever coffee shop with my laptop instead of grabbing coffee to go.

Anybody found any decent parking garage options near the Hyatt Regency that doesn't cost a fortune? Looks like there are Millennium garages a few blocks south from there that might offer overnight parking.

I was actually debating parking at South Bend airport and taking the train, I've done that before. But I think we have to get back home early on Sunday to pick up our daughter so don't think that's going to work.

I'm going to call Millennium garages and find out what they offer. Also looks like http://www.parkwhiz.com has some options.

More importantly, does Chicago have Dunkin Donuts? Hopefully near the Hyatt

Internet tells me there's hundreds in town and one around the corner. 8-)
