Good to Know: Local Tips

Practical notes for this location: Chicago hotel bills add roughly 17% in combined taxes, most downtown properties are fully non-smoking, and valet parking typically runs high — if you're driving, compare the reserve-ahead garages in this directory before committing to the hotel's own valet.
