Thread: Help me pick between these 4 Chicago hotels

Going to Chicago NYE and possibly for a weekend in Oct. I need to book rooms ASAP, but dont want a bad location. Would love to be able to walk to shopping/dinning/nightlife.

The Luxury Hotel Allegro: A Downtown Chicago, Illinois Hotel

Downtown Chicago Luxury Hotels: Hotel Palomar Chicago

W Hotels of Chicago

I stayed at the W lakeshore back in May. It was close to where my customer was having a show so it made sense. Nice hotel but it was a short cab ride away from everything. I would stay at the city center if i had to go back.

The Ritz is right on the Magnificent Mile.

the palomer is in the prime location to all the stuff on ohio, as well as the mag mile.

but the bean, sears tower, and all that are on the other side of the river, which you can either cab, or walk... I tend to just walk around ever where

also, what is the purpose for the visit?

Park Hyatt

Heavy drinking and smoking cigars with breaks in between for chasing women. We ended up booking at the W City Center, but now I might consider a switch.

W has nice women, but requires a Cab to go out. Let me know if you are going to any clubs, and I can take care of covers.

Wait, if you are coming for nye, you should look into packages. THey have a lot of big parties and room deals. Also, looking last minute on price line, or going through amex is the cheapest way

Looked on AMEX's website, but I would have ended up paying more than going through Starwoods directly w/ the AAA discount.

Do you have any recommendations for clubs on NYE?
