The Wedding Website of Natalie Orcutt and Erik Skutnick
To help you plan your trip, here are some recommendations on getting to and around Chicago while you're here. While these are a few recommended hotels close to our venue, keep in mind there are literally hundreds of hotels in the Loop, River North, South Loop or other north side neighborhoods that are all a short drive or train ride away!

Hotel

Courtyard by Marriott Chicago Downtown

30 East Hubbard Street
Chicago, IL 60611
 

We have reserved a room block at the The Courtyard by Marriott Chicago Downtown/River North. This hotel is about a 3 min walk from The Ivy Room and is located in Chicago's River North neighborhood. To reserve, you can either call the hotel and say you would like to book a room in the Orcutt-Skutnick Wedding Room Block or use the below link to book your stay. Reservations in the room block must be made by May 6, 2024 to receive the group rate.

Hotel

The Royal Sonesta Chicago Downtown

71 East Wacker Drive
Chicago, IL 60601
 

We have also reserved a hotel block at The Royal Sonesta Chicago Downtown. The Royal Sonesta is located in the Loop on the Chicago River and is a 10 minute walk from The Ivy Room and about a 2 minute walk from CTA Red, Brown, Pink, Orange, Green and Purple line train stops. To receive the group rate, please use the link below! Reservations must be made by May 8, 2024. Additional note: there are two Royal Sonesta hotels near the Ivy Room, so make sure you are booking/traveling to the correct one.

Hotel

AC Hotel by Marriott Chicago Downtown

630 North Rush Street
Chicago, IL 60611
 

While we do not have a room block here, The AC Hotel is another Marriott property and is a 4 minute walk from The Ivy Room, also located in Chicago's River North neighborhood.

Flight

Flying to Chicago

For those flying in, recommend flying into either O'Hare International Airport (ORD) or Midway International (MDW) Airport! Both airports are close to the city and have a variety of ways to easily get downtown. From Midway, you can take the Orange CTA line to easily get downtown and from O'Hare you can take the Blue CTA line. Both airports also have rental cars and ride share (Uber/Lyft) pick up locations.

Travel Note

Getting Around Chicago

We would recommend walking, using the Chicago CTA train system or ride share options (Uber and Lyft) as the easiest ways of getting around Chicago. If you prefer to drive, there are also a lot of parking garages down town. We recommend using the Spot Hero app to look for the cheapest parking in Chicago near your destination. You can even reserve parking spaces for the entire weekend, usually at a discount and sometimes this can even be cheaper than the parking at your hotel, so it's worth checking!
