Where should I stay for a night? (Chicago, Palmer: hotel, house)

[dajohnson99]

I'll be going through Chicago next month for a wedding. I want to stay at a boutique hotel in the loop for a night for around $150 per night, it also need to accommodate four people. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Yes, a hotel booking site.

I'm not sure where the wedding is but the loop can fairly dull on weekends and weeknights. If you're staying a few days to check out the city you might be better off finding a hotel in River North. As for boutique hotel recommendations in the loop, I love the Palmer House although it's still a hilton property. It's an iconic hotel though and has the old world charm you're likely looking for.

$150 per night for 4 people in downtown Chicago?

$150 isn't absolutely required. I don't mind going up to $400 a night, but the hotel does't necessarily have to be in Downtown, as long as I can take the el to it pretty easily.

Shouldn't be hard to find a great place downtown for around $200 this time of year. We had some visitors in from out of town this past week. They paid $220 for the Four Seasons.

You will probably need at least two rooms. I've stayed at the Embassy suites.
Embassy Suites By Hilton Chicago Downtown - Guest Reservations

Many other places too.

March is a little busier in Chicago than February, but you should still be able to find good deals, good locations for under $200. And just about any booking site will have them.

If you can get into the Thompson for your price point, I highly recommend it. While not downtown, it's in the Gold Coast, just north of the Mag Mile area. Great hotel.
