Recommendations??

Q. Seems like my husband has decided to want to vaca in Chicago instead of Colorado. So with that being said...Can anyone recommend a historic, preferably HAUNTED hotel in Chicago?? Thanks!

A. I picked these hotels because they look as if they could be haunted (they are vintage class) but I don't know if they are! They are all downtown and all nice, at least I think so. In Chicago, prices are a good indication as it is very competitive.

Whitehall Hotel
Hotel Allegro Chicago
The Tremont Hotel
The Allerton Hotel
The Drake Chicago
Hilton Chicago (Elizabeth Taylor's first marriage was here)

Chicago L - Which station is this?

Q. What station is it where N State street and W chicago street meet (chicago red)? Check it out on google maps.

I am staying at WhiteHall and need to know if this is
a) safe area
b) if it will take us to mil park and navy pier area of town
i am on google maps and when i click it, it says Red, then is mentioned howard. I assume this is "Chicago" and mil park is "monroe". Is this correct?

A. Yes the Whitehall Hotel is in a very safe area. To get to Millennium Park get on the southbound Red Line at the Chicago station and get off at the Lake Street stop or the Monroe Street stop and walk east to the park. Howard is the last station to the north on the Red Line so if you want to go north take the train marked Howard. 95th Street is the last station to the south on the Red Line so if you want to go south take the train marked 95th Street. Use this map. http://www.transitchicago.com/assets/1/clickable_system_map/200806D.htm

Place to stay in Chicago near Magnificent Mile (5 mile radius or less)?

Q. My husband and I will be visiting Chicago the ending of April. We've already stayed at The Drake and Embassy Suites - Downtown Chicago. Prefer hotel w/"coin laundry" as my hubby will be joining me from Indianapolis w/one weeks' worth of laundry!

A. The Seneca, I just booked a room w/ kithenette for $109, w/ free b-fast, nice plushy older hotel. The Whitehall has a pinnacle king room on Travelocity for $139. The pinnacle rooms include drop off svc for a 2 mi. radius. Both of these are at the NORTH end of Mag mile. Both charge about $30 -$38 for valet parking. Check out Travelocity & Priceline. PS--You know, you do NOT want to DRIVE in Chicago-walk, cab, or city bus($5 all day) The traffic is nutz and the pkg is $$$$$!!!!!OOPS-you want a laundry svc, sorry! Drop it all off somewhere and pick it up later that day? The conceirge could probably hook you up for that.
