*Median nightly Chase Travel rate (fees in) for two-night stays across the coming year, for planning only. Chase rates typically run 10 to 20 percent above the hotel's own site; the Edit credits and perks only apply to Chase Travel bookings, and the price match guarantee can close the gap. Hotel names open each hotel’s page, which includes an affiliate price comparison: if you book through it we may earn a commission, at no cost to you. We earn nothing on Chase Travel bookings and take no card-application commissions. “Hotel site” opens the hotel’s own website, or Google Maps when we don’t know it; the Edit credits require a prepaid booking in Chase Travel.
The list and map below cover all 13 Edit by Chase hotels in Chicago, each with its typical nightly rate on Chase Travel and a double-credit flag where it applies. All of them have a full year of Chase Travel pricing, and the monthly figures on this page are medians across the whole list.
Timing changes the math more than hotel choice does: the citywide median nightly rate (fees included) runs from $463 in February to $897 in October, about double the cheapest month. Sapphire Reserve credits are fixed dollars, so they go furthest when rates bottom out. A two-night stay at the cheapest month’s $463 median runs about $926, and the $250 Edit credit plus the $100 property credit are worth roughly 38 percent of it. At the two double-credit hotels the stack grows to $600, about 65 percent of that same stay.
Loews Chicago Hotel has the lowest typical rate of any Chicago Edit hotel with a year of pricing, $484 a night (4.5 stars), and Fairmont Chicago, Millennium Park follows at $488 (4.5 stars).

February is the cheapest month to book an Edit hotel in Chicago, with a median nightly Chase Travel rate of $463 across the 13 hotels with a year of pricing. The figure includes fees and comes from nightly price calendars refreshed every day. January comes next at $476 and March after it at $488.
The driver is weather: Chicago winters are harsh, and hotel demand hits its annual low from December through March. Travelpander’s seasonal breakdown identifies that same winter window as the cheapest time to visit.
October is the most expensive month at a $897 median, about double the cheapest month. June is next at $887 and September after it at $834.
Festivals and the convention calendar keep demand strong from June through October, per Kayak’s Chicago hotel data and Trip Signal’s Chicago booking guide, and rates break in November.
One concrete play: Loews Chicago Hotel has the lowest typical rate in Chicago at $484 a night. Two nights at that rate come to about $968, and the $250 Edit credit brings the room to roughly $718, with the $100 property credit to spend at the hotel on top. Booking in February, when rates across the city bottom out, is likely to bring the bill lower still.
Two of the 13 Chicago Edit hotels qualify: the Kimpton Gray Hotel by IHG and the Pendry Chicago. Booking one through Chase Travel stacks the $250 Edit credit with the separate $250 select-hotel credit, up to $500 off a single prepaid stay of two nights or more, with the $100 property credit on top. The select-hotel credit runs through December 31, 2026.
February is the cheapest month, with a median nightly Chase Travel rate of $463 across the 13 Chicago Edit hotels with a year of pricing, fees included. January comes next at $476 and March after it at $488. October, the peak month, runs a $897 median, so moving a two-night booking from the peak to the cheapest month saves about $868 at the citywide median.
Per stay. Each Edit booking includes one $100 property credit, however long the stay, and it usually goes to food and drink at the hotel. On a two-night stay at the cheapest month’s Chicago median of $463 a night, that $100 plus the $250 Edit credit return $350, about 38 percent of the roughly $926 room cost.
Loews Chicago Hotel has the lowest typical rate of the 13 Chicago Edit hotels with a year of pricing: a $484 median nightly Chase Travel rate (4.5 stars). Fairmont Chicago, Millennium Park is next at $488 (4.5 stars). The cheapest 5-star option is Nobu Hotel Chicago at $612. At Loews Chicago Hotel’s typical rate, two nights cost about $968 before credits.
Median nightly Chase Travel rates across the 13 priced Chicago Edit hotels, fees included, run from $463 in February to $897 in October. Individual hotels span a wider band, from Loews Chicago Hotel at $484 to The St. Regis Chicago at $1,069 a night.
Yes, if your dates are flexible. Median nightly rates run $463 in February against $897 in October, a $434 per-night gap, so a two-night stay at the median costs about $926 in the cheapest month and about $1,794 at the peak. The $350 in combined credits is worth about 38 percent of the cheaper stay and about 20 percent of the dearer one.
