Chicago Midway International Airport is about 11.4 km away, while O'Hare International Airport is roughly 30.7 km away.
Best for
This home suits families and small groups who want more space and privacy than a hotel room, thanks to its three bedrooms, kid-friendly setup, and private backyard patio. It's also a strong fit for travelers who want easy transit access to downtown Chicago via the nearby subway and bus stations without paying downtown prices. Guests who enjoy cooking or want a quieter, residential neighborhood feel will appreciate the full kitchen and up-and-coming Bronzeville setting.
Travel tips
Take advantage of the nearby 47th subway station and Green Line bus stops, all within a few hundred meters, for a quick ride into downtown Chicago's museums and Riverwalk without needing a car. Note that Midway Airport is the closer of the two Chicago airports at roughly 11.4 km away, which may be more convenient than O'Hare for arrival and departure. Guests have mentioned hearing train sounds occasionally, so light sleepers may want to plan accordingly, though it hasn't detracted from most stays.
