This outdoor shopping center is right across the street from the hotel, so if you need anything last minute this would be an easy place to find it! There are also many different restaurants around the perimeter of the mall if you are looking for a place to eat.
Millennium Park and Cloud Gate are some of the most recommended tourist attractions in Chicago for a good reason.
If you want to check out one of Chicago's famous museums while you're in town, the Art Institute would be our favorite recommendation. It's a manageable walk from the train station (or a short cab ride).
If you decide to stay through the weekend, this is some of the most fun you can have in Chicago, especially if the weather isn't nice enough for walking around and seeing the city.
This is our favorite brunch spot in Chicago - if you are flying out late enough on Sunday, you should try it for yourselves. (We'll probably be there.)
If you're staying at the hotel through the weekend and are looking for a great breakfast spot, this restaurant is less than 15 minutes from the hotel. It's our favorite brunch spot outside of city limits!
