Where do we stay?
Chicago has many neighborhoods to choose from for lodging. We do have a room block at the Warwick Allerton Hotel located on the Maginficent Mile (link to book located under the "Lodging" tab). We also have access to a discount code for the Sophy-Hyde Park Hotel, which is located within walking distance of our venue.
If wanting to stay in the heart of the city, look into staying in the Streeterville or River North neighborhoods. If interested in staying near the venue, lodging in the Hyde Park neighborhood is closest. There is much more information on each neighborhood located under the "Chicago Neighborhood" tab on this site. Please reach out to one of us if you have any further questions!
