All the areas you listed are a ways away from Zion Il., 45 min at least.
Maybe 30 min without traffic.
Probably the closest hotels would be in the Gurnee Il. area. Around Great America (that is an large amusement park). Almost all the major hotel chains are there. That's only about a 10-15min drive from the party.
But as for the ones you listed
O'Hare Airport or Skokie would be the closest.
