The Neighborhood Hotel Little Italy is situated in a warm, vibrant neighborhood that’s within a half mile from UI Health and Rush Hospital. Fun fact: 45% of guests choose our hotel to be close to the hospitals. Many are traveling for medical related work, representing companies such as: Stryker, Arthrex, and other firms that serve or sell to hospitals. Our location provides an easy commute in addition to amenities that make working on the road easy and comfortable.
“Doctors, nurses/travel nurses, medical professionals, patients and their families need a place to stay that’s super close to the hospital(s) but also a space that feels good. We knew that this building [the former National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame] was ideal for our fourth location because it’s an interesting, historic space in a prime location. Little Italy is home to everything that gives the city soul— incredible people, restaurants and culture — all in close proximity to the Illinois Medical District,” says Jonathan Gordon, Founder and CEO of The Neighborhood Hotel. “Our hotel is clean and comforting, filled with thoughtful details.”
Some of those touches include: full kitchens in every suite, local coffee grounds and Moccamaster brewers, a partnership with Baby’s Away to deliver and assemble any baby gear that’s needed and cozy throw blankets made by The Weaving Mill [a local company that also supports Envision Unlimited — a nonprofit that helps adults with developmental disabilities]. Unique details are also reflected in the Gibsons seasoning salt in every pantry, a guide to the neighborhood with tips from long time locals on each coffee table, even bocce balls to use on the courts next door. The wifi is fast and secure while the living rooms and kitchens are spacious enough to set up a work station without infringing on the solitude of the sleep chambers. The in-unit washer/dryers eliminate the late night run to a laundromat while allowing for efficient packing.
Back to the ideal location: guests feel the spirit and warmth of a dynamic neighborhood that’s very close to public transportation and within short walking distance to several hospital buildings.
“We realize that many of our guests are staying purely for fun but some are here for work or medical travel. We want to support everyone which is why we double down on the things that might seem small,” Gordon says.
“Quite simply: details matter.”
The following are some recent TripAdvisor reviews from The Neighborhood Hotel Little Italy’s page.
Amazing hotel with luxury appliances, beautiful view of the city, super clean and comfortable, gracious box of cookies as a gift . Beautiful neighborhood. The hotel is what I needed after a long day of work . I will come back with family and friends .
The hotel itself is super cozy and perfect for travelers who need a good balance of work and play. There’s a great space to work out, which I really appreciated for keeping my routine on track. Plus, they have comfortable areas to get some work done if you need to catch up on emails or just want a quiet spot to focus.
Great hotel in a fantastic area. Easy to gain access with your secure code. Safe location. Modern room with lots of amenities. Convenient location to Rush Medical.
Lots of quality restaurants nearby – Peanut Park Trattoria, Conti di Savoia, Starbucks, etc. Beautiful piazza with fountains across the street and a shipping location adjacent to handle business needs. Well appointed kitchen.
We had a very comfortable stay – the room was super clean and we had everything we needed – great bath amenities, kitchen, washer/dryer and groovy furnishings. It’s located on a cute street where you can walk to coffee shops and restaurants. It was also very quiet – we slept really well.
