 | |  |  | Hostelling International Chicago Summer Hostel: The Best and Least Expensive Bed in Chicago | Tip Rating:    Satisfaction:   |  |  | |  |
On one of our trips to Chicago we visited this hostel and loved it. Not only is the Chicago International Hostel the cheapest place to stay in Chicago, it is also one of the most convenient - within walking distance of most downtown attractions. The thing we like most about staying in hostels, other than the savings, is the opportunity to meet and mingle with fellow travelers from around the world. In this hostel approximately 1/2 the visitors are from the United States, and 1/2 from abroad. We saw mostly young adults, but also youth groups, families, and several older travelers.
Completely renovated in 2000, Hosteling International-Chicago is big and bright and clean. With 500 beds it is the second largest hostel in the US. It is open 24 hours, 365 days a year, and there is no curfew. The hostel is open to people of all ages, members and non-members alike. Discounts are given to Hosteling International members. The hostel also offers discount tickets to a few nearby attractions, such as the Sears Tower.

| | | | Hostelling International Chicago Summer Hostel: Good Price, Convenient Location | Satisfaction: | | | | |
The Hostel International in Chicago is a great place for budget and student travelers. It is a clean facility, with dorm rooms and common showers. The staff are very friendly, and know the city very well, always willing to help out with ticket, transit, or tourist information. I found it to be a great place to stay for a weekend in Chicago. You can join in the many group outings or activities, or just use it as a base for your own personal exploration of the area. The hostel is also located right in downtown Chicago, just a block from Grant Park, and right next to L lines that can take you where ever you want to go. For the price, you really can't beat this.
There is also free wi-fi on the common floor. A continental breakfast is provided every morning, with juice, cereal, bagels, muffins, fruit.
