Chicago Bachelorette Party Suggestions

I'm the MOH for my best friend's wedding and planning her bachelorette party for this summer in Chicago. I am currently looking into hotels and would love some recommendations for nice, but reasonably priced hotels (want to be close to good bars, restaurants).

I'd also love some ideas on fun bars or things to do!

Thanks

The Four Points by Sheraton is in a great location and very reasonably priced. The rooms are decent and clean, nothing fancy, but absolutely fine. I've also stayed at Hotel Sax - don't remember pricing, but its also in a great location and is a funky, trendy boutique hotel (right next to the House of Blues)

Howl at the Moon is a fun dueling piano bar - pretty divy, but lots of fun. The Rush Street area (where Rush & State St meet) has a lot of trendy restaurants and bars and there's usually a lot going on in the bars in that area. I love Chicago - I'm sure you'll have a great time!

My parent's just went to Chicago this past weekend and were able to see Book of Mormon for 125 as a couple. I would look into tickets. They also stayed at the JW Marriott and said it was lovely.

Another good restaurant is Fultons On the River - its not in the Rush St area, but has really good food and like it says, is right on the river. Also, if you're into wine, Bin 36 is a great restaurant to go to

I was just in Chicago this past weekend and had a great time!! We stayed downtown at Hotel Monoco, got a great price on jetsetter. I think you guys should do dinner at Frontera Grill it is a Rick Bayles restaurant, Mexican with really good margaritas and food. We also did brunch at The little Goat, another top chef, Stephanie Izard, and wanted to eat at her other restaurant at night, The girl and the Goat but its impossible to get reservation at last minute. There are so many good restaurants there, you guys will have a great time! We did the segway tour which was so fun!! Also did the architecture boat tour which was really cool.

Like another poster, I was just in Chicago this past weekend too, too funny! I was visiting a friend so I stayed at the Renaissance Downtown since it was across the street from her apartment. I would recommend the hotel as it was reasonably priced and although the neighborhood it's in is kind of touristy, it was central to pretty much everything. I'd also recommend the architectural boat tour. Also we tried some fun restaurants, RPM Italian and Perennial Virant. Also the rooftop bar at Hotel Lincoln was very cool, it was called J. Parker. My friend actually mentioned when we were there that in the area of downtown she lives in, there is a street with a lot of dive bars that people tend to frequent for bachelorette parties...
