Location

Adjacent to hip Rush Street and within walking distance of popular attractions

The Waldorf Astoria is located on East Walton Street, around the corner from hip Rush Street and surrounded by popular bars and restaurants. It is one block from boutique shopping on Oak Street and two blocks from the high-end shopping on the Magnificent Mile. Also within walking distance are the Museum of Contemporary Art and Hancock Observatory.The posh Gold Coast is a popular tourist destination, especially during the warmer months. Well-preserved Victorian townhouses and 19th-century buildings line the tree-shaded sidewalks of this affluent neighborhood, north of the Magnificent Mile. During the day, its beautiful buildings (which include the Playboy Mansion and Potter Palmer's lakeshore castle) attract tourists -- but not crowds -- and light traffic makes it a perfect place to take a relaxing walk far from busy downtown Chicago. Groups of young Chicagoans and tourists fill the neighborhood's trendy bars and popular clubs at night.- 23-minute drive to Midway International Airport
