Transport costs Chicago O'Hare to Downtown / McCormack Place, return
Thank you, John for an excellent suggestion. I found some hotels in that
suburb have train stations within 2 blocks. Hope to book room shortly. ps "John L" wrote in message ... Since my original post I have found out the train indeed is much cheaper and convenient,,,runs around the clock. So to get to McCormick Place, I would try and just come to one of the downtown hotels and hop on the courtesy buses running shuttles. Reverse for return. Try and find a hotel within walking distance of the Rosemont or Cumberland stations, the ones just outside the airport, or you'll spend an extra half hour each way at the airport end waiting for the shuttle to your hotel. The only hotel you can walk to from the airport station is the Hilton which is not cheap. Check out http://tripsweb.rtachicago.com which will tell you how to get from any address in Chicago to any other by public transportation. R's, John |

Transport costs Chicago O'Hare to Downtown / McCormack Place, return
I think O'Hare will suit better for me. I hope to fly out the LHR from
there. Thanks for your suggestion. ps "James Robinson" wrote in message 7.142... "ps" wrote: Downtown hotels are c. $400 per night for 19th to 23 rd May,,,obviously because of some events. So it is simpler to be close to airport for a) to check in after later arrival, and b) easy departure. If you have a choice, you might trying flying into Midway airport, and stay at one of the nearby hotels. The CTA trains will get you to McCormick place faster than coming from O'Hare. |
