Ren ORD Suites, Marriott ORD Suites & Marriott ORD are all Cat 4, so any of them will work. Not sure if there's a big difference between where they're located & the dinner venue. Speaking of which, do we know the dinner venue?
PS - If I make it, I might do public transportation this time, so would need a ride to/from the dinner.
Cheers.

We live about 15 minutes from ORD and will have room for 2 in our car (3 if you don't mind being a little cozy).

Hey All, I am doing my best to be there on the 25th. I am scheduled to work that night so it is doubtful. I have requested to have that night off, but there is a lot of flying to do in August. We are looking forward to another good fund-raising year, as well as resuming races in Reno. Thank you all so much for the awesome support we got last year. I hadn't posted in the Radial Velocity Facebook page for a while, but I just updated it and I will be sure to now that things will be moving along.
Hoping to see you on the 25th.

I'm looking at the Ren ORD Suites because, unlike the other 2 properties, it offers a buffet breakfast to Gold/Plats (just confirmed this on the phone) on the weekend when the lounge is closed. And the rooms are suites. Also, supposedly it's only a 5-10 minute walk from the Blue Line.
FS Marriott (not Suites) is also close to L.

I just booked my flight! UA 1098 EWR-ORD. Fingers crossed for an upgrade, because the plane is a CO 752! (i.e, flat beds for a 2 hour flight).
Arrival is 2:22pm.
