Chicago Hotels near Wicked & Cubs 8/07

We will be in Chicago on 8/23 and 8/24 and have tickets to see Wicked (evening performance) and for an evening Cubs game. We will be traveling with our 2 college aged daughters and we have all been to Chicago before. Am looking for hotel recommendations -- someplace clean, convenient and reasonable (though i%26#39;m sure Chicago hotel are expensive in the summer). Any suggestions of things that would interest our daughters that they might think was cool - or places to eat?

In terms of a hotel two college-age girls would like, I%26#39;d suggest the Indigo (it%26#39;s a very cute beach house-style boutique hotel that%26#39;s not so cute a guy would dislike it). Other choices would include the James and the Conrad, as well as the Westin River North. It all depends on what you%26#39;re looking for in terms of budget. All four hotels would be near a subway stop.





In terms of what to do, what do they like to do? Are they into shopping? If shopping, are they more into cool thrift stores or designer labels (or both?) Are they into museums, sports? If you could provide some more details, we%26#39;d be happy to help with some suggestions that would be more tailored to what they like.

I have to correct myself -- we are going to see the Chicago White Sox not the Cubs (you can tell that I am not the baseball fan in my family). We have done the Miracle Mile, walked outside at Millenium park -- don%26#39;t know what other attractions might be teenage friendly so any suggestions would be great.




have the girls been to Bucktown/Wicker Park? funky boutiques. great restaurants. Or how about the Armitage area for shopping and have lunch at Minnie%26#39;s. By the way it%26#39;s Magnificent Mile, I think Miracle mile is in Canada.
