Unfortunately, no hotels have been reported to the board yet in Lincoln Park. There are VERY few hotels in this area though, and prices for the area on HOTWIRE for the area are generally not aggressively discounted. The greater competition of downtown properties does (usually; when downtown is extremely busy, the Lincoln Park properties get spillover and are likely busy, too) lead to better discounts. Not sure which participates in bidding, but there are a trio of independent properties (Willows, City Suites, Majestic), a Days Inn and Best Western in the area (and the Best Western is frequently full during baseball season with those heading to nearby Wrigley Field.) Other than that, that's really it in the area (which is too bad, as it is a nice area.)

The issue this particular weekend is the National Restaurant Association show, which is one of the biggest (if not the biggest) conventions of the year in the city (plus Spring traffic.) Rates have come down a bit for these dates from where they were, but unfortunately are still definitely on the high side. What would be your desired budget per night?
