Chicago travel guide

Chicago is on Lake Michigan in Illinois. Choose a base around the places you expect to visit and the actual airport or station used for arrival.

Choosing your base in Chicago

Compare the journey from each hotel to your main plans and the area you want in the evening. A lake outlook is a room-category detail, separate from convenient access to the itinerary.

Before choosing a room

Confirm the exact view, bed layout and the full cost of parking if you need it.

Compare the exact room category, including bed layout, cancellation terms and the full stay total. Hotel photographs may show several categories. If a detail matters to you, look for it in the room description or ask the property.

Where guest evidence is available, use it to investigate specific questions about the stay. Read the supporting comments and their dates. A neighbourhood description cannot establish how quiet an individual room will be.

Planning resources

Our stay advice is editorial guidance. Room facilities, transport services and hotel offers can change. Confirm the details for your trip before booking.
