Location

Congress Plaza Hotel Map
Congress Plaza is nicely situated for our business and meeting travelers! Sears Tower, LaSalle Street, the Chicago Board of Trade, and city, county, federal and state government offices are just three to eight blocks from our perfect corner.

It is just a short stroll from the hotel to the Loop with Marshall Fields and Carson Pirie Scott, among the many stores you will want to include in your shopping plans. And, it is also a very short walk to The Art Institute of Chicago, the Harold Washington Library, Symphony Center, and the Auditorium Theatre.

From the corner in the heart of Chicago's Culture Coast, you can hop a cab up the avenue to the Magnificent Mile of world-class stores, shops, restaurants, and the excitement of Navy Pier with its 17-story Ferris Wheel, the Children's Museum, shops, live music stages, and great restaurants.
