Parking at Chicago's O'Hare Airport can be a hassle to say the least. What I have learned from past experience is leave the driving into the airport for the shuttle drivers and cabs. Since I don't live close to O'Hare Airport, I learned to use what is known as the park sleep fly hotel.
The park and fly hotel usually offers parking up to 15 days and a free shuttle ride to and from the airport, not to mention a 1 night stay at the hotel with all the amenities included. With that in mind I will list the top 3 hotels near O'Hare Airport offering park sleep and fly packages, with the best deals first for those on a budget. These deals often cost less than the price of airport parking alone.
The Ramada at O'Hare Airport is about 6 miles from the airport and offers a park sleep fly package starting at just $89 for up to 4 people and 14 days parking. This is one of the best deals for any airport hotel. Often costing less than parking at O'Hare alone, and you get to stay at the hotel for 1 night before your trip. Definitely a good deal for the money, even if you don't stay the night.
The LaQuinta Inn and Suites Near O'Hare Airport had the next best deal at only $95 for 2 people and up to 14 days parking. They have their airport shuttles running every hour on the hour and are located just 7 miles from the airport. Not being right next to the airport can be a blessing if you're a light sleeper, no noisy airplanes flying over all night. Conveniently located in Elk Grove Village just north of O'Hare, this is a nice hotel and you will get a good nights sleep knowing you are getting a better deal than airport parking alone.
The Radisson Hotel O'Hare is for anyone who wants to be closer to the airport. Located 2 miles from O'Hare airport, this park sleep fly package will only cost you about $119 for 7 days parking, with free shuttles running every 30 minutes. This is a top rated hotel parking package for the price, and close to the O'hare airport. Other hotels closer to the airport will cost almost twice as much as this package.
So as you can see, staying at one of these park sleep fly hotels is completely within reason, especially if you have to park at O'Hare airport. Often costing less than airport parking alone, these could fit right into your travel budget, and maybe even save you some time and money in the long run.
