Yep, you fly into O'Hare, hop on the hotel shuttle for the hotel you're staying at, and ride it about one mile (straight across the freeway), and you're there!

The hotels are all next to/right across the street from the D.E. Stephens Convention Center.

It literally could not be easier

Default Chicago

I can't wait to get back to Chicago and attend the National. (I guess I will have to wait!) Most of the hotels offer free shuttles back and forth every 30 minutes, lots of good restaurants nearby. Just like AC, I wouldn't spend much time outside walking around after dark, but during daylight hours you can walk around without a problem.

I am waiting for the NSCC to announce their partner hotels so I can get mine booked right away. Several hotels offer decent discounts for the National.

Being held the same week as the BB HOF inductions, so hof baseball guests might be a tad scarce.

Dare I say Gino's East may be even better - and there's one on W. Devon in Rosemont, a stone's throw from the Donald E. You're welcome.

That's an Italian beef with gardinara which, if you add motzarella and hold the gardinara and have the bread soaking wet, that might be the best sandwich ever.


And I am a huge fan of thick or thin pizza....just depends on my mood.

If you've never tried it I strongly recommend giving it a shot. Chicago deep dish is the best pizza I've ever had. There are plenty of great places in Chicago but you can't go wrong with Giordano's.

They also make a great thin crust pizza.

They made it wrong. Who puts the sauce on top of the cheese?

The little 2 floor strip plaza chinatown thats a train stop has the best chineese food i ever had. Many great restaurants that have all the ethnic variations. I heard san francisco is the best ever but i would feel safe calling chicago's version as a number 2 as far as the united states i concerned

Gentlemen gentlemen. As with politics, no food fights allowed on the forum. Where is a moderator or peasant/forum owner? Just like cops, never around when you need one.
