We have an overnight layover in Chicago for our upcoming trip to Bonaire. Don't need anything fancy but require clean, safe and airport shuttle. Any recommendations?

I travel out of O'Hare quite a bit. We have tried various hotels around O'Hare and have found the

Thanks, Michael, that's just the info I am looking for from the experienced Chicago traveler. Breakfast is a non issue as our outgoing flight to SJU is at 7 am so 4:30 am is usually too early for any hotel breakfast. It's usually airport fare on our travel days.

Hi Linda! I'm going to support the Holiday Inn as well. We used it for our first very early flight to Bon. Now we just take the limo from the house. For us it is about the same cost. When do you layover in Chicago? Maybe we can try to meet for dinner.

Tribs, sounds great BUT our plane gets in around 9 pm and we head for airport at 5 am. Not long enough for a mini-meet but too long to camp out in the airport.

Last November we also stayed at the Holiday inn Select CHICAGO-OHARE (ROSEMONT). We took advantage of the stay and fly, on the way to Bonaire, and used normal rates when we returned.

Bummer Linda! I would have loved to meet. I do understand the issues with frequent flyer tickets. I booked my most recent trip five months in advance and AA has me on the oddest route. Multiple layovers make me nervous - too easy to lose luggage.

Not the cheapest, but the easiest is the Hilton at Ohare. No shuttle, and its a 5 minute walk (inside) to security from the lobby. You'll easily get an extra 30+ minutes of sleep in the AM (since you won't use a shuttle)
