Chicago - Wrigley Field/Lincoln Park Zoo
Where would you stay if these were the only 2 things you were doing in Chicago?
We will have a car and a toddler with us, so we don't really need to/want to stay downtown. Are there any nice, reasonably priced hotels on the northside of town?
Thanks!
Re: Chicago - Wrigley Field/Lincoln Park Zoo
This hotel opened recently right across from the zoo. Nice location, but I haven't heard much about the hotel.

Ditto this. Then you would have a full kitchen as well.
Best Western Hawthorn Terrace. I know, you're thinking "Best Western"? which is what I did, but it's actually really nice. My mom stayed there last time she visited and got upgraded to a suite. The bed was comfy, it had a little sitting area, and it had a mini kitchen. And it was much cheaper than a downtown hotel.
It's at Addison and Broadway, so like a 5 minute walk to Wrigely, right by lots of restaurants. And it's a 10-15 min bus ride or 3 mile walk to Lincoln Park.
And possibly parking. I'd also go this route.

There is a Days Inn on Diversey and Clark which is right in between and very nice or the Inn at Lincoln Park that is older but has character and a free parking lot.
You can take the 151 bus South to the Zoo or the 22/36 bus North to Wrigleyfield. All within 2 blovks.
I lived right there for 5 years and you can PM me if you have any questions.
Hi, friend!
We've stayed at the Majestic Hotel, which is right in that area. They really cater to Cubs fans, and may have some package deals if you want to take a look. It's an older/historic hotel, so the rooms are pretty tight, but it worked for us.
