Hotel rates?

[magnum]

Just last Thursday, DH and I started looking at downtown Chicago area hotels to stay at in December (week after Christmas). I was going to book the hotel today but the rate jumped $50! I don't reserve many hotel rooms, so do you think the rate will go back down if I wait or should I directly call the hotel?

Clear your chache and try again.

I'd book a refundable rate and keep looking. I usually use priceline and hotwire to get the best deal.

I'll check out priceline and hotwire. Its a Hilton hotel so can you still get Hilton points if you book through a different website?

I can usually get points if I book though a company like Orbitz, but I have a hard time collecting points from priceline and hotwire. Usually the rate is cheap enough that the points don't matter.
