I absolutely love the ambiance of this historical hotel. There is so much do do, between the game room, delicious dining at the Cherry Circle room, several unique bars in the facility including Cindy’s rooftop bar overlooking Millennium Park. My only disappointment was paying extra to overlook Millenium Park, only to find out that the windows were blocked by the trim on the outside of the building.

I could smell the burgers from shake shack in my room in the morning 7am on the 7th floor - and throughout all hallways. It was a very strong smell.

Loved everything about this luxurious, historic hotel. We were unexpectedly upgraded to a larger, better room. Staff was friendly and helpful. The design, attention to detail, and the vibe of the place was consistently curated to a level one rarely sees in a hotel. The only shortcoming was that there was a gap between the wall and the shower glass panel allowing water to spray onto the bathroom floor.
