Club Quarters Hotel in the Central Loop has rooms for all nights: https:\/\/clubquartershotels.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Holiday Inn Express, just north of the river, has rooms for all nights: https:\/\/www.ihg.com\/holidayinnexpress\/hotels\/us\/en\/chicago\/chimm\/<\/a> The Holiday Inn just on the west side of the Chicago River from the Loop also has rooms for all nights: https:\/\/www.ihg.com\/holidayinn\/hotels\/us\/en\/find-hotels\/hotel\/rooms?qCiMy=92018&qCiD=9&qCoMy=92018&qCoD=14&qAdlt=1&qChld=0&qRms=1&qRtP=6CBARC&qSlH=CHIWH<\/a><\/p>\n

You can take a glance at the conference map to get an idea of other hotels in the area — there are plenty more in the River North section, about a mile away (and close to the Billy Goat Tavern<\/a>!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
