This hotel is exemplary is every way. From the warm greetings and outstanding service from Antonio, Malcolm and Ebony to the chic and comfortable lobby, room and restaurant, we were delighted.
The luxurious bed was a relief after a four-night stay the previous leg of our trip with a saggy mattress. Water pressure in the shower was great, and they have filtered tap water in the bathroom and at the 24/7 station in the lobby, so there are no plastic bottles — yay! We also loved the in-room coffee. We loved everything about the room, actually!
We stayed here previously because it’s so close to the Chicago Theatre; keep it in mind if you’re seeing a show there. But it’s ideal for any activities.
Valet parking is pricey ($69) but convenient, with in & out privileges. The location is unbeatable for public transit, too—just around the corner from the State & Lake L entrance and an easy bus ride to Lincoln Park and Navy Pier.
We only had breakfast and a nightcap at the onsite restaurant, Perilla, but food, ambiance & service were excellent. The bartender made us a special mocktail with housemade Campari.
However, there’s no shortage of restaurants and bars within walking distance if you want to explore, and it’s a quick L ride to the West Loop for an array of terrific choices. (I recommend Rose Mary.)
The only caveat is that being so close to the L does yield noise on that side of the building, but I’m a sound sleeper and wasn’t bothered.
