Why cheaper? For many consultants, the Gwen is a go to. If there are no conferences (and it’s shoulder season now), Langham and Trump (if your politics don’t preclude) can have shockingly low rates.

Chicago hotels are normally crazy expensive so best to book in advance. The Robey in wicker park might have some good rates or the hotel at midtown athletic club if you aren’t brand loyal and like a good gym

If you’re working in WL try to stay at the hoxton. Amazing hotel, good rooms, plus great rooftop (cabra)

What’s ds expense policy
