We are going to be in Chicago for a weekend in July -- going to a baseball game, but don't have any other plans .. . Would welcome suggestions for hotel, activities, restaurants.. TIA
Also, any areas of town we should avoid when looking for hotels?
Re: Visiting Chicago
I would check out Metromix and Yelp for restaurants and activities. On Metromix's events section there is a summer festival guide. A ton of street festivals during July. If you are going to be in town for 4th of July then there is the famous Taste of Chicago. For hotels, look for something in the Loop/Downtown or River North/Gold Coast area. This is where most of the decent hotels are.
I could give restaurant suggestions if I knew what kind of food you like and your preferred dining budget.
