The South Loop sits just south of downtown, anchored by McCormick Place convention center and Museum Campus. It's walkable, well-connected by the L train, and notably cheaper than River North. Budget hotels here serve convention-goers and museum visitors who want proximity without downtown prices.
Pros
Cons
🛡️ Safety: Safe near Michigan Ave and the museums. Be cautious east of State Street south of Roosevelt. Well-lit main corridors.
