Located in the heart of the Windy City Freehand Hotel | Hostel offers dynamic food & beverage and a relaxed community vibe. Our second Freehand outpost is housed in a classic 1927 building in Chicago’s vibrant River North neighborhood - home to some of Chicago's best art galleries, boutiques and restaurants. Rest assured, we have a tapped-in event coordinator on staff planning outings and activities for our guests. Inside, we’ve collaborated with design firm Roman and Williams to transform the former Tokyo Hotel. With innovative design, affordable shared and private rooms, and a comfortable community atmosphere your choice for a stress-free stay in Chicago couldn't be simpler. For eats and drinks, you’ll find a second edition of our celebrated Broken Shaker mixology bar, serving up signature cocktails and bites. Our Café Integral serves up a variety of fine Nicaraguan coffee and seasonal dishes. We also have a communal kitchen where you can make a midnight snack or pull together a picnic for a day of exploring.
