Hotels in Chicago
Hi! MH and I will be visiting Chicago in the next week ... we're driving from New Jersey.
We need a place to stay that isn't outrageously expensive. We're looking for something that's under about $150 per night, if possible ... we found the Ohio House Motel and that seems decent. Any reviews on this place? Any other suggestions?
Thanks!
Re: Hotels in Chicago
If I'm reading this correctly and you're planning to come the weekend of the 14th, your best bet is to book something through Expedia or Price Line. That weekend is the weekend of the air and water show, so there are a LOT of people coming to visit.
Parking at most downtown hotels will run between $20 and $40 per night, so take the PP's suggestion and drive to one the airports and leave your car in a lot there and take the train in.
What are you planning to do in the City? Knowing that will make it easier to make a hotel rec.
I would personally use priceline name your own price. My family usually always does this- and gets downtown hotels for $50-$75 a night, for 3-4 star hotels. Check www.betterbidding.com to see what recent bids have gotten what hotels.
Most recently my sisters got the Holiday in at Merchandise Mart for $75, and my MOH got the Hilton Towers/Chicago Hilton for $80 (all for weekend of July 9-10)
Good luck!
