Why Concert-goers love it

One of the biggest draws is the hotel’s free 24/7 shuttle to O’Hare Airport, making it super convenient for late-night arrivals or early-morning departures after a show. The front desk is open around the clock, and check-out isn’t until noon, so you can sleep in post-gig.

Food and Drink Options

Nightlife Options

While not in the heart of nightlife, the hotel bar is a good spot to unwind with a drink. You're also a quick ride away from bars and lounges near O’Hare, or you can head into the city for more vibrant options. The shared lounge is a cozy place to hang with fellow concert-goers before or after the gig.
