Where to Stay When Visiting Abbott Laboratories (Chicago)
Abbott Laboratories's headquarters is in Abbott Park, far-north Lake County. Match the hotel to the district — and the airport to the hotel. Chicago's spread and its two airports both matter.
Abbott Laboratories is a diversified healthcare company (diagnostics, medical devices, and nutrition), headquartered at 100 Abbott Park Rd, Abbott Park, IL 60064. That's far-north Lake County — the Abbott Park and North Chicago pharma campuses (Abbott and AbbVie) near the Wisconsin border, about 35 miles north of the Loop, with business hotels clustered a few minutes south in Lincolnshire and Mettawa.
“Abbott's sprawling campus is up in Abbott Park near the Wisconsin line. Base in Lincolnshire or Mettawa a few minutes south; the campus has no hotel of its own.”— Rachel Julian, Founder & Editor-in-Chief
Which airport — and how far?
O'Hare (ORD) is about 35 minutes south; Milwaukee's Mitchell (MKE), just over the Wisconsin line, is a comparable ~40 minutes north and sometimes the easier run for far-north Lake County. Skip Midway, on the far southwest side.
Where should you stay near Abbott Laboratories?
Stay in Lincolnshire or Mettawa near Abbott Laboratories — the campus itself has little lodging, so the business hotels a few minutes south along I-94 are the base. Downtown Chicago is 35 miles away; don't commute it.

What should you check before booking?

The standard
Abbott Laboratories is a Chicago HQ where two choices decide the trip: the district and the airport. Book near the office in the Lake County area, fly O'Hare (ORD), and keep the wrong-side-of-town commute off your morning.
