Every hotel on this list is within 0.75 miles of Wrigley Field at 1060 W Addison St, making each one walkable for Cubs games, ballpark concerts, and Wrigleyville nights out. Hotels are ranked by walking distance first, then by star rating within the same distance range.
They range from Hotel Zachary, a full-service Marriott Tribute Portfolio hotel, to a well-rated independent guesthouse.
How we ranked these hotels
Walking distance from Wrigley Field's main entrance at N Clark St and W Addison St is the primary ranking factor. We calculated walk times using a standard pace of 20 minutes per mile, so a hotel 0.24 miles away earns a 4.8-minute walk time. Where two hotels fall within 0.1 miles of each other, the one with more stars goes first.
We left out hostels, short-term apartment rentals, and anywhere without a guest rating we could check. All five hotels below are on the North Side, close to the ballpark in Lakeview.
What to expect in Wrigleyville on game and concert days
N Clark St fills up fast on Cubs home dates and during ballpark concerts. Bars and rooftop venues along Clark and Addison draw crowds well before first pitch and stay busy for hours after the final out. Within two blocks of the park, expect street noise on event nights. It's worth asking for early check-in when you book.
April games can drop into the low 40s°F with wind off Lake Michigan, while July and August afternoons regularly push into the mid-80s°F, so it helps to have covered parking or a short Red Line ride from Addison.
We have a separate page for pet-friendly hotels in Chicago if that is a factor in your search.

Tips for booking near Wrigley Field
- Book at least 6 weeks out for Cubs playoff games and major ballpark concerts. Rooms within 0.5 miles go first.
- Request a room facing away from N Clark St if you need quiet after 11 p.m. on event nights.
- The CTA Red Line Addison station is one block east of the ballpark. City Suites Hotel, on Belmont Ave, can use Belmont station instead, which connects the Red, Brown, and Purple lines.
- Covered or garage parking is scarce in Wrigleyville. If you are driving, confirm parking availability directly with the hotel before arrival.
- April and October games at Wrigley Field can be cold. Hotels with an on-site restaurant or bar let you warm up without fighting post-game crowds on Clark St.
