I just checked. Some of the better hotels are already booked.

I just booked the Loews. Don't have to pay until we get there and I can cancel up until the day before.

Last week I booked Wednesday and Thursday nights at the Hyatt. I will drive up from Indy on Wednesday morning - that should give me Wednesday's sneak peak, all day Thursday and as much of Friday as I want. That's probably enough for me. I can always get a Friday night room somewhere if I want.

I like parking in the Hyatt garage that's connected to the convention center - its a long walk but I enjoy being able to go back to my room or back to my car when I want to.

My reservation has a 24 hour cancellation policy - which I like.

Yes. I am looking to stay near the convention center for ease of going to the convention and then if i want to go to downtown there are plenty of transportation options.
so I am looking on which hotel is recommended in walking distance

Thanks Michael.
You are right places are booking fast. I also booked the Lowes and the cancel up to the day before is good and gives me options to look around if I want.
Decided to stay Wed thru Sat.

I was at the last National held in Chicago two years back. I stayed right by the convention.
This year I booked a hotel 20 minutes away for much cheaper. I don't mind doing a short drive if I could save some money on the hotel which could go to cards.

Whenever I drove to the National in Chicago, I would always stay at one of the hotels in Schiller Park, IL and then park each day at the Rosemont CTA station, which was a short walk away from the convention center.

To answer another question, YESSSSSSS....there will be a 2023 Net54baseball "Dinner" this year....

It's all relative. IF cheap pizza, a few horse duvers, and an open bar is a dinner then you are all set!
