Motel 6-Harvey IL

Simple Comfort Near the Chicago Music Scene

Modern in its minimalism, Motel 6-Harvey IL is a no-frills, budget-friendly hotel located just off South Halsted Street in Harvey. It's about 19 miles from downtown Chicago, making it a convenient base for catching a show without paying city-center prices. With free WiFi, air-conditioned rooms, and a 24-hour front desk, it offers the essentials for a comfortable night’s rest between gigs.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert fans appreciate this hotel for its easy highway access and proximity to venues like Guaranteed Rate Field and the Field Museum area, both around a 20–25 mile drive away. The 24-hour front desk is a plus for late-night returns, and the quiet suburban setting offers a welcome break from the buzz after a big show. If you're driving, it’s an ideal spot to avoid downtown traffic while still being close enough to the action.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends road-tripping to a show
• Solo travelers catching a dream tour stop
• Couples looking for an easy overnight stay
• Fans who want a quieter recovery space after the encore
• Budget-conscious music lovers seeking simple accommodations

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, the snack bar is a handy late-night option for a quick bite after the encore. Several fast-food spots and casual eateries are within a short drive, plus you can bring delivery back to your room. There's no formal breakfast service, but that means you’re free to sleep in and grab something at your own pace.

Nightlife Options

The hotel houses a small on-site casino—a unique perk if you're feeling lucky after the concert. For more nightlife, head into nearby Chicago neighborhoods for vibrant bars and lounges, or unwind locally at low-key spots just a few minutes away.

What People Say

Guests often highlight the clean rooms and helpful 24-hour staff as major positives. Many travelers also mention the value for money, especially when attending events in Chicago. The free WiFi and cable TV add comfort for downtime between shows.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel is fairly basic—so don’t expect luxury extras. Some reviewers note the décor could use a refresh, and the area is more functional than scenic. But if you’re just looking for a place to sleep after the show, it’s more than adequate.

The Bottom Line

For an affordable, no-fuss place to crash after the concert, Motel 6-Harvey IL delivers the basics in a location that’s concert-trip friendly.
