So, you're about 4 1/2 - 5 miles from the Museum Campus (Shedd, Adler), about 26 blocks (about 3.25 miles) from the Sears Tower, and about the same to Navy Pier. Cabs are expensive if you use them all the time to get around. Buses and trains are reasonably close to where you're staying, and use the RTA Trip planner to see how you can get from place to place on public transit. The trip planner also tells you how much the trip will cost. http://tripsweb.rtachicago.com/ The CTA's website is http://transitchicago.com/|||go to mapquest.com and map out a route from your hotel to your destinations. This will give you a great route and let you know how far apart things are. Good luck and congratulations!|||ask the front desk, they should know what is going on in the city.|||I dont know where the hotel is. You can get maps from City Train Station and they will tell you how to take public transport to those places you want to go. Also you can buy one day or two days pass ( I am not sure how many types right now but the leaflet from Train station will tell you). You can take both bus and city train by using one transportation card and there is free transport hours ( should be 2 or 2.5 hours). Taxi is quite expensive, normally 15 mins will cost you 15 - 18 depends on the traffic conditions.
