In Lincoln Park -- one of Chicago’s posh neighborhoods -- a new 4-star boutique hotel is now available for $89 per night. This is 50% off current rates at this hotel, newly opened in March.

Stay across the street from the city’s biggest green expanses over these dates:

• $89 … Sundays-Thursdays, January-February
• $99 … Fridays-Saturdays, January-February
• $139 … March 1-19

Hotel Lincoln is just north of the downtown area – just 10 minutes away by bus, the El train or cab. This charming residential neighborhood boasts unique boutique shopping and top restaurants.

Visit farm-to-table Perennial Virant adjacent to the hotel, headed by award winning Chef Paul Virant, or catch an improv show at Second City. Among the 1200 acres in the park are a zoo and indoor conservatory -- admission is free at both.

Not available on: Feb. 16; March 3-7, 16, 20-23
