Don't stay in the loop it'll be expensive. Any hotel within 3 miles Madison
and Wabash is ok. The El ( elevated railroad) is excellent and easy to
figure out. Most of the museums ( field , shedd, adler ) are clustered on
the museum campus that has a free shuttle. The Sci and ind museum is easily
reachable by bus. I'd stay outside the loop say the Days inn north of
Michigan ave ( can't tell you which one) they'll know it overlooks the lake
and lincoln park. That's an easy 15 minute walk straight to shopping or 2
minute bus ride. Remember to get a pass for the El and buses.
hope you have a good stay in our city. Check out Twin anchors if you like
ribs and Mortons if you like steak. The Sears tower obeservation deck is
great and you can have drinks on the 96th floor of the hancock and a meal on
the 95th floor. I'd have the meal just before sunset and drinks watching it.
