Illinois Travel Guide: Planning Your Visit

There is so much to do and see in the Land of Lincoln while on business. Here are our best spots to see when staying in an Illinois serviced apartment:

Things to do in Illinois:

Navy Pier - In Chicago, this is the place to go for events, free public programmes, attractions, restaurants, shopping, and more. Along with attractions, games, restaurants, bars, and retail centres, the pier also offers cruises. These cruises provide a unique opportunity to explore the city's attractions and indulge in the local cuisine while journeying down the Chicago River or navigating the stunning Lake Michigan.

Shawnee National Forest - Located in near Harrisburg in the south and spanning nearly 300,000 acres, Shawnee National Forest is the perfect escape from the city. Indeed, roughly 1 million individuals visit this remarkable hickory-oak forest each year. Camping, horseback riding, and hiking are all popular activities in the woodland, with local authorities providing everything from rustic hiking to modern campgrounds with showers and power sites.

The Bean - Anish Kapoor conceived and unveiled The Bean, a work of public art in the centre of Millennium Park, in 2004. It's officially known as the Cloud Gate and weighs roughly the same as 15 adult elephants. With an exterior made of stainless-steel, The Bean reflects the activity and lights of the park and surrounding city skyline. While at the Millennium Park, you might also see a show at the Jay Pritzker Pavilion. This is also a great spot to spread out a blanket, have a picnic, and watch the sunset.

Travel and Transport in Illinois

As a result of its geographic centrality, Illinois serves as a crossroads for truck, train, and other forms of national transport, and navigating the transportation system may be challenging. So, here's what you need to know about Illinois' transportation systems before you book your Illinois corporate housing:

Transit Systems – Millions of passengers are helped to reach their destinations by the 63 public operators/providers in the state. The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) operates the country's second biggest public transportation system, with 140 bus lines and 242 miles of rapid transit rail track. Of the state's 102 counties, 96 provide some form of public transportation to their residents. Before you arrive at your serviced apartment in Illinois, have a look at a map of the state's public transportation network.

Airports – In Illinois, there are 11 airports that provide commercial service. The top five airports in the state are Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD), Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW), General Wayne A. Downing Peoria International Airport, Quad Cities International Airport, and Central Illinois Regional Airport at Bloomington-Normal (CIRA), with ORD serving approximately 83 million passengers and MDW serving 22 million passengers per year.

Things to know when visiting Illinois

 Here are a few things to keep in mind when travelling to Illinois corporate housing:

Climate - The state is known to have a continental climate, with hot and humid summers and cold winters. While the weather is generally pleasant throughout the year, the winter months may be particularly harsh and unpredictable. Ice and snowstorms may arise out of nowhere as temperatures might drop below two degrees Fahrenheit.

Traffic - Due to its huge and rising population, Illinois is home to major cities that are infamous for congested streets and rush hour traffic. In fact, Chicago is listed as the third most crowded city in the country and parking in the major cities can often be difficult to come by. With that in mind, while looking for serviced apartments in Illinois, it may be a good idea to factor in travel time to and from work.

Living Expenses - The Prairie State has lower living costs than the national average. Living in Illinois is reasonably priced, depending on which city you visit. Groceries, food transportation, and healthcare prices are all lower than the national average. On the flipside, taxes might be quite high.
