If you live in the Chicago area, you don't have to travel far and wide to experience incredible dining, excellent shopping, and world-class attractions. Plan a Chicago staycation at our hotel, and re-connect with the city as you explore its many charms. Blogger Chi@Glance recently discovered the benefits of our award-winning hotel, and writes about it in a recent post: “Take my advice and stay at the Best Western River North. Chicago has so many hotels to choose from, but I picked the Best Western because it's affordable, AWESOME/Central location (right in the heart of River North), and ummmm… roof top pool action in the winter?!?! I'll go for that! “For those of you that are doing a Friday/Saturday Staycation like me you may need to check your work email once in a while and Best Western has you covered with their FREE in room WIFI or have a cup of coffee in the WIFI Room.” Chi@Glance also loved our hotel's “spacious rooms, friendly customer service, in and out car garage privileges” – but most of all, she appreciated the “location and affordability. I wanted to stay at a decent hotel, but not break the bank.” She also indulged in a little breakfast and bed with room service from Pizzeria Ora – plus explored local hot spots like Nando's Peri Peri for lunch, Scratch Goods spa, and Bella Noir Desserts.
