First of all Cheap and Chicago don’t belong in the same sentence. That being said, the Cass Hotel, 640 N Wabash is an o.k. place to stay. It’s an older hotel, but clean and reasonable. They advertise “Downtown without the Downtown Price.” The reservation number is: 1-800-227-7850. A single should be in the range of $89 per night. It is within walking distance of most clubs. The art institute is a medium walk, and a long walk is the Natural History museum. The Planetarium and Aquarium are close to the History meuseum. The meuseum of Science and Industry is a cab ride. Check out: for info on the hotel and close by venues. The “Magnificent Mile” N. Michigan Ave is a good place to shop, and watch people. Try a boat ride on the lake. They board from the river at Michigan Ave. The skyline is fantastic.

I recommend checking out Tripadvisor’s travel reviews. I always use them to try and figure out what works best for me. With that said, what is your price range? It would be easier for me to help you out with a price limit in mind
Here are some hotels with the 100-200 price range
Crown Plaza is # 6 on Tripadvisor reviews–looks like it’s about 150 for a room…

If you’re driving your own car here, I recommend the Clarion Hotel Barcelo. It’s somewhere around $60-70 a night and has free parking. It’s a bit north of the city, up by the O’Hare airport, but the El blue line is right there for you to ride downtown… maybe a half hour ride, but worth it for the money you will save in parking. My inlaws always stay there when we don’t have room in our home for them; it works out really well.
