    Hello. I'm traveling into Chicago the 3rd week of September. Which Binny's is the best one to get a room by? If you recommend any other shops in the area that would be great too. Thanks.

    The biggest Binny's is in Lincoln Park, but I don't think you'll find any hotel that close. You might be able to find an apartment/house rental nearby, though. I wouldn't worry too much about being right by it, as you can get their with public transportation/taxi/Uber.

    Other good shops are West Lakeview Liquors and Beer Temple, to name a couple.

    Binny's on Grand would probably be the easiest one to get a room near, but the Lincoln Park and South Loop locations would have a bit more selection.

    If you don't have anything planned I would definitely recommend getting to West Lakeview Liquors early in the morning on Saturday for their Zwanze Day party. Lots of amazing beers will go on tap in their outdoor area and they'll offer some rare beers for sale throughout the day. You can find more info here: https://beerservedrare.wordpress.com/2015/07/01/cantillon-zwanze-day-2015-announced-for-sept-19/

    Also second Beer Temple, Bottles & Cans and Capone's Liquor (located just north of Beer Temple on elston).

    You could look on air bnb. People rent out their condos and Apts. Should find something close. Also, check out West Lakeview Liqour.

    Another good place to pick up beer is Fischmans Liquors and Tavern.
