Any Hotels offer shuttles to Shedd, zoo, etc?

I am planning to go to Chicago for the first time with my wife and 4 year old daughter this summer. I am wondering if any of the downtown hotels offer a shuttle service to the area attractions. We plan on driving into Chicago and parking our vehicle at whatever hotel we stay at. I%26#39;d prefer not to drive around Chicago since I am unfamiliar with the area and am unsure about public transportation since we have never used it before.

Downtown hotels do not have local shuttles. Once you%26#39;re here, park your car once until you%26#39;re ready to leave town.





Public transit is easy and abundant. www.transitchicago.com for public transit information. A CTA visitor pass might come in handy for your visit.





www.explorechicago.org is a good site to get to know what%26#39;s here and how to get there.

The only hotels that offer shuttle service are the ones off the beaten paths, such as the Hyatt McCormick, and then it is only to the destination I believe.



Public transportation is very easy in Chicago. Your concierge will map everythig out for you.



In researching hotels, look at the different websites, as many will still be offering a parking package, it will save you tons of money! (probably more so than going to a third party website, think you get a good room deal, and end up paying more since parking was not included)
