Thursday 1 April 2027 Guaranteed Rate FieldUpdated Tuesday 10 November 2026
The short answer
24 hotels from our mapped pool sit within 8 km of Guaranteed Rate Field. Next up at the venue: Chicago White Sox vs Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday 1 April 2027. For that night the cheapest listed room starts around A$181 per night and the median is A$363, -46% against a normal A$678 night. Rates sampled 10 Nov 2026.
The White Sox ballpark sits on Chicago's South Side, and none of the 24 hotels we list are an easy walk, the closest is 2.21 kilometres away. That means every stay here involves a short ride to the ballpark, whatever area you pick. Downtown is the biggest base, 12 hotels, good for travellers who want restaurants and nightlife options beyond game day. Museum Campus, with five hotels between 2.68 and 4.92 kilometres, suits anyone combining the game with the museums nearby. Grant Park's four hotels and the single properties in Loop, Medical District and Suburb give more options if downtown rooms are tight. This is a stadium stop more than a walkable sports precinct, so build in time for the ride on game night. Home games in 2027 include series against the Milwaukee Brewers on 1, 3 and 4 April, the Baltimore Orioles on 5, 6 and 7 April, and the San Francisco Giants on 16 and 17 April, so decide early which area suits your trip.
When to book
Home games fall on 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 16 and 17 April 2027, against the Brewers, Orioles and Giants. None of the 24 hotels are walkable, so book early for whichever area suits your plans, Downtown and Museum Campus offer the widest choice. Pay weekly instalments and free-cancellation rates make it easier to lock in a room before the series you want sells out.

Map: Guaranteed Rate Field and the listed hotels
Getting to Guaranteed Rate Field
CTA Red Line to Sox-35th station
The CTA Red Line stops at Sox-35th station, which is just one block east of the ballpark, with trains from downtown running towards 95th/Dan Ryan. The station sits in the median of the Dan Ryan Expressway and fans cross a bridge over the expressway to reach the gates.
CTA Green Line alternative
The Green Line stops at 35th-Bronzeville-IIT station, a few blocks east of the ballpark and reachable from downtown and the West Side via trains towards Ashland/63rd or Cottage Grove. This option typically has fewer stops from downtown than the Red Line.
Metra Rock Island line option
Metra's Rock Island District line serves 35th Street station, also known as Lou Jones Bronzeville, which sits close to the Red and Green Line stops near the ballpark. This stop is on 35th and LaSalle just east of the expressway.

CTA bus routes serving the ballpark
Several CTA buses reach the stadium area including routes 1, 4, 24, 29, 35 and 39, with the 35 and 39 connecting to the Orange and Green Lines. These are useful alternatives for fans not near a direct Red or Green Line stop.
Official rideshare pickup and drop off zone
Uber and other rideshare services use a designated lot, Lot A, on the Wentworth Avenue side of the ballpark for both pickup and drop off. Fans arriving or leaving by rideshare should enter and exit through Gate 5, and the lot stays open until one hour after the game ends.

Official car parks around the stadium
There are eight official lots lettered A through L surrounding the ballpark, which generally open two hours before first pitch and allow tailgating. Lots A, B, C and G can be prepaid in advance while F and L are available for day of game payment.
Accessible parking location
Accessible parking is located in Lot B near Gate 5, which has elevator access, for vehicles displaying a state issued disability placard or licence plate. Ballpark staff will also allow guests needing assistance to be dropped off and picked up in this lot.

Highway exit and alternate routes
The ballpark is reached from the Dan Ryan Expressway (I-90/94) at the 35th Street exit, with the 31st Street exit serving as the official alternate if the 35th Street exit is temporarily closed due to heavy traffic. Cars should then follow signed routes onto Wentworth Avenue towards the lots.
