Experience Chicago on a budget-friendly note with HI Chicago, an exuberant opportunity to explore the city before embarking on Route 66. Nestled in the heart of downtown Chicago, this contemporary hostel enjoys a prime, central location. Boasting modern amenities, it offers convenient connectivity to the airports, bus terminal, and train station.

With its doors open 24/7, every day of the year, HI Chicago imposes no curfew and extends its warm welcome to all age groups. It's worth noting that guests under 18 years of age should be accompanied by an adult.

“This is probably one of the best hostels I've stayed in - clean, friendly, good atmosphere and awesome location. I'd recommend it over the other Chicago Hostels - it's a little more pricey but you get what you pay for right? Kitchen was well equipped and the free breakfast was definitely the best reason to get up in the morning. I will definitely be staying at this hostel again next time I visit Chicago.”
