Our supported hotel in
Chicago is in the heart
of downtown Chicago and
was chosen based on both
its nightly rates and
also its walking and biking
distance between all
local
and long distance public
transportation options
in Chicago. Millennium
Park is only five blocks
away and there are lots
of attractions nearby.
Visit one of Lake Michigan’s
beaches, browse the upscale
shops and boutiques on
the Magnificent Mile,
or discover the iconic
architecture
and contemporary art
of Millennium Park. Enjoy
shopping, dining, museums,
entertainment and seasonal
events at Navy Pier or
take in a show at the
nearby
theater district. Staying
there can also be perfect
way to allow your tired
and sore muscles to rest
and recover from a challenging
cycling event and perfect
if you would like to
extend your event as
part of a
weekend getaway in the
city!
