The Best Hotel in Lincoln Park and Wicker Park, with Bucktown and Logan Square, Chicago

Background Illustration for Hotels

Three miles of lakefront parkland draw people to the Lincoln Park neighborhood—and most hotels here are just blocks away. Room rates are decidedly lower than those downtown, the downside being that you'll invest more in transportation to hit top sites. Parking is easier, but never a snap; plan on using the valet. Wicker Park attracts an artsy mix of young couples and singles who can't walk more than a yard without stumbling into a mom-and-pop-owned fast-food joint or a four-star restaurant.

The Neighborhood Hotel Lincoln Park

$ | 2626 N. Clark St., Chicago, IL, 60614, USA

You couldn't pick a better name for this 14-suite charmer: a lovingly rehabbed 19th-century apartment building set in Lincoln Park's residential heart, it's about as close as you can get to living like a local without signing a lease. While it's not a luxe downtown high-rise (a fact you might feel keenly aware of when you're hoofing it up the stairs), creature comforts like modern kitchenettes, soundbars, and even yoga mats abound. Better still, suites are bursting with vintage moldings, warm light, and artwork that celebrates 1980s Chicago pop culture, making for memorable, if not hyper-polished, spaces. A rear coach house offers extra privacy.
