Oak Park Hotels and Transportation

NOTE- SEPTEMBER 8th IS THE LAST DAY TO USE THE BLOCK DISCOUNT WE'VE ARRANGED. Please book before then if you'd like the discount (the prices are still good even without the discount).

We have reserved 30 rooms with a group-rate discount at the Write-Inn, which is located next-door to our condominium at:

211 N. Oak Park Avenue
Oak Park, Illinois 60302
(708) 383-4800, [email protected]

(Our contact there is Lena, although anyone can help you)

There are 10 single-bed rooms and 20 double-bed with sleeper sofa rooms available for the nights of October 13th and 14th (although extra days can be reserved for the same rate). There's a very nice restaurant adjacent to the lobby.

You don't need to rent a car to get to the motel- the Chicago CTA trains can take you from Midway or O'Hare to the station one block away from the Hotel.

Other Local Hotels:

The Carleton (actually, it's the only other hotel in Oak Park, though there are B & Bs)

Travel:

Everything involved in the wedding in Oak Park (ceremony site, reception) is within a 1/2 mile radius or less of the Write-Inn and Carleton Hotels. There is also a grocery market and several restaurants very nearby.

The Write Inn hotel is one block away from the Oak Park stop on the Chicago Transit Authority's (CTA) Green Line.

(The Carleton is one stop further down the Green Line at the Harlem Stop)
