    Unbeatable price 4 location.

    We were in town for a 4 day dog show at the McCormick Lakeside. The hotel attached to our dog show is $800 for 4 days. The Best Western Grant Park is a fraction of the the Hyatt price prepaid on [...]. The #3 bus stops a few steps away from the hotel door & takes us to the door of McCormick Place which was our dog show site approximately 2.5 miles away. In the afternoon, we ride the #3 back towards our hotel for dinner. There are many excellent restuarant choices close by. After dinner, we ride the #3 bus back to the dog show to care for our dogs then back to our hotel for the evening. This hotel is very clean & comfortable & close to our dog show for a prepaid price of a Red Roof Inn! Best part -- COMFY beds & FOX NEWS on cable!

    Lots of good restuarants just a short walk away. Just around the corner is the Yolk which is THE breakfast place in Chicago! We LOVE our Irish Pub 3 blocks away! We enjoyed Mexican near our hotel as well.

    More than I was hoping for

    I was in Chicago for a conference and after two nights of staying with a less than ideal host, needed to change my accommodation. Best Western had the cheapest rates so I went with them, hoping only to get a few nights of good sleep. It was more than I hoped for: I was impressed by the quality of the room and the helpfulness of the staff. Public transport is easily accessible and many attractions are within walking distance (e.g. Art Institute, Millenium Park, good food). The noise wasn't really too much of an issue, it was just one night where I could hear people (from another room? not sure) until fairly late.

    Really nice place to stay

    GREAT trip. A last minute get-a-way that was very fun! Hotel close to all of Chicago's finest attractions; within 2 to 3 miles of everything! The Lincoln Park Zoo and Navy Pier were absolutely wonderful. Great family fun.

    Worked well for us

    We came to Chicago for a convention. Easy walking to McCormick Center, the waterfront, Navy Pier and Downtown (20-25 minutes). Price was good, the amenities clean and comfortable. This is now our Chicago destination of choice.
