Only a few minutes. People not wishing to walk can use either Chicago Transit (more information below), or share cabs. Regarding transit both hotel and museum have nearby stops for brown and purple line. Which of the lines is better depends on the direction to go: %|Location|Transit Stop ||% &|Hotel |[http://www.transitchicago.com/travel_information/station.aspx?StopId=98%|%Merchandise Mart]|[http://www.transitchicago.com/brownline/%|%Brown Line] To Museum|& &|Museum |[http://www.transitchicago.com/travel_information/station.aspx?StopId=133%|%Washington/Wells]|[http://www.transitchicago.com/purpleline/%|%Purple Line] To Hotel|& TransitMap: http://www.transitchicago.com/assets/1/maps/ctatrainmap.png <> Tcl Conferences | Category Community
