Kimpton Monaco
 
Anyone familiar with Monaco hotel in Chicago?
How do you take the train in from Midway to Monaco?

From MDW, you'll take the Orange Line train into The Loop. Follow the signs through the terminal that say CTA Trains to city. You can purchase 3-day passes from the vending machine at the rail station for $14. They allow unlimited rides on all CTA trains and buses. If you're not staying at least 3 days, you can purchase 1-day passes inside the terminal for $5.75.

The airport is the end of the line, so the train goes in only 1 direction. Take the train to the Randolph stop, it will take about 40 minutes. Exit Randolph and walk north on Wabash 1 block to the Monaco.

If the Monaco is anything like the Monaco in San Francisco (also a Kimpton hotel), it should be a <i>wonderful</i> hotel.

One of my favorites in Chicago!

The Monaco is lovely. I stayed there a few years ago. It's in a perfect location, is beautifully decorated, and the service is great. Just be sure to ask for a room that doesn't face the alley.
