The hotel translates Westin's wellness-centered ethos into every corner of its design.

Waldorf Astoria Chicago

A 60-story limestone monolith pierces the Chicago wind; this architectural beast at 11 East Walton Street declares Old World power amidst the steel jungle with an almost arrogant Beaux-Arts swagger. The cobblestone courtyard is more than an entrance; it is a physical barrier, forcefully filtering out the chaos and noise of Rush Street. Push open the heavy doors, and the visual violence of the black-and-white palette hits your retina directly. A Swarovski crystal chandelier is pinned to the ceiling like a massive diamond brooch—cold, brilliant, and unyielding. There are no gentle transitions here, only an instant switch from clamor to silence, a hard-edged luxury belonging to the Gold Coast.

The elevator doors slide open to reveal the quiet of a private vault, a result of the low-density layout with only ten rooms per floor. Inside the suite, white marble bathrooms reflect the blue glow of the mirror TV, while the fire in the fireplace dances tirelessly, fueled by gas. Standing on your private terrace, the cold wind off Lake Michigan hits you, carrying the scent of the city's ambition. Downstairs at Bernard's, the smell of leather and tobacco mixes with the spicy bite of bourbon, a place where the ghosts of Prohibition still seem to linger. Meanwhile, at Brass Tack, a massive Porterhouse steak sizzles on the grill, releasing a primal, meaty aroma.

JW Marriott Chicago

JW Marriott Chicago brings together the weight of the city’s financial history, the classical architectural language of the Daniel Burnham era, and the composed rhythm of contemporary urban luxury into a downtown address with unmistakable landmark presence. Set on Adams Street in the Loop, the hotel is close to Union Station, Millennium Park, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the dining scene of the West Loop. Its home is the former Continental and Commercial Bank Building, completed in 1914 and designed by legendary architect Daniel Burnham, giving the experience a sense of arrival shaped by the grandeur of Chicago’s early skyscraper age. The hotel now offers 610 guestrooms and suites, including 30 suites, with interiors inspired by the elegance of Pullman train cars. That reference brings a refined sense of vintage character into the building’s classical framework, while a more polished contemporary design language ensures the rooms feel both comfortable and distinctly urban.

The public spaces and overall guest experience continue this dialogue between history and modernity. The hotel features Spa at JW Chicago, an indoor pool, whirlpool, contemporary fitness center, and executive lounge, allowing it to function as more than simply a luxury hotel in the financial district, but as a retreat that still leaves room to breathe within the pace of the city. Event and meeting spaces are equally central to its identity: with 37 venues, including the Burnham Ballroom, the building continues to serve as a setting for Chicago’s social and business life. In spirit, JW Marriott Chicago is not a contemporary hotel defined by forward-looking design, but a classic urban property shaped by Burnham’s architectural legacy, its central Loop location, and a refined, quietly confident sense of luxury—particularly suited to travelers who want to stay within Chicago’s historic fabric without giving up modern comfort.

The Robey

Perched high above the big intersection of Damen, Milwaukee and North Avenues in an Art Deco masterpiece formerly known as the Northwest Tower, stretching 203 feet tall and the only skyscraper for miles, the Robey captures the storied spirit of Chicago: a bustling, ever changing, big shouldered town. Originally designed as an office building in 1929 by the firm of Perkins, Chatten and Hammond, each of the hotel's rooms, lobby and roof spaces were transformed by Belgian design duo Nicolas Schuybroek Architects and Marc Merckx Interiors to provide new perspective to 89 room hotel.

The Midland Hotel, Chicago, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

In January 2025, a historic icon in the heart of the Chicago Loop reclaimed its original identity. Formerly known as the W Chicago - City Center, the property has transformed into The Midland Hotel, Chicago, joining Marriott’s Tribute Portfolio. This rebranding is not merely a name change but a strategic return to its roots as a premier 1927 gentlemen's club. The architecture is a stunning dialogue between eras: the solemn grandeur of the Italian Renaissance Revival exterior gives way to a playful yet sophisticated Art Deco interior. The lobby, with its restored terrazzo floors, soaring arches, and crystal chandeliers, evokes the glamour of the Roaring Twenties, while contemporary touches like charred wood accents and bold street art in the bar area inject a modern pulse. The hotel comprises 403 guest rooms and suites. While the historic footprint means rooms maintain a cozy, vintage scale, recent renovations have updated them with plush bedding and modern tech amenities, designed as tranquil retreats from the urban energy outside. The culinary heart of the hotel is the Midland Social Club, a nod to the building's social heritage, serving elevated American cuisine in a vibrant setting. Its location is unbeatable for both leisure and business; situated amidst the financial canyons of the Loop, it is steps away from the Willis Tower and the Art Institute of Chicago.

Coa serves authentic Spanish tapas alongside steaks and seafood, carrying bold Iberian flavours and warm hospitality to the table.

Le Méridien Chicago - Oakbrook Center

Set on Spring Road in Oak Brook, Le Méridien Chicago - Oakbrook Center sits right beside the upscale Oakbrook Center, where designer boutiques, restaurants, and a cinema are all within a short stroll, and downtown Chicago is roughly half an hour away by car. This hotel translates Le Méridien's European heritage, that glamorous mid-century notion of travel as discovery, into a quiet, contemporary corner of the suburbs. The guest rooms are dressed in mid-century modern décor and hung with hand-selected original artwork, and the beds are the brand's signature LM Platform Beds, made up in cotton-rich linens. Rooms on the higher floors open onto wider views across Spring Road and Oakbrook Center, while the Executive Suites stretch out in an open-plan layout, their living areas anchored by original works of art. The room key itself is an artist-designed object, and presenting it grants complimentary entry to the Elmhurst Art Museum and the Lizzadro Museum, a small perk unique to Le Méridien's Unlock Art programme.

Dining here has real character. El Tapeo brings the bold flavours of a modern Spanish kitchen, built on a simple, ingredient-driven menu, where a plate of paella and a glass of sangria become a reason to gather with family and friends. For something more relaxed, Longitude 87 runs an illy coffee bar and American breakfast through the morning, then shifts in the evening to craft cocktails, premium wines, and local beer, with an outdoor patio that lends the meal an easy rhythm. The lobby carries Le Méridien's signature Hub concept, a space designed for guests to gather, connect, and simply linger over a coffee as the mood moves from day to night. For deeper rest, book a treatment in the private Spa Suite, run in partnership with Windy City Massage, or keep your routine going in the 24-hour fitness centre. There's even a complimentary bicycle waiting if you'd rather explore Oak Brook on two wheels.

The Art Institute of Chicago, Millennium Park, and the city's central business district all sit within a short walk. Inside the rooms, the view tends to claim your attention first. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the green sweep of Grant Park, with the lake spreading out beyond in a band of blue-grey and Buckingham Fountain catching the light on a clear day.

Down on the ground floor, Grant Park Bistro brings an American menu from the LM Restaurant Group, open daily from early morning until late evening and rolling out a relaxed brunch on weekends. It anchors the rhythm of a stay, from a stack of morning pancakes to a cocktail as the afternoon winds down.

Below the hotel sits 900 North Michigan Shops; Millennium Park, the Art Institute and the lakefront trail are all within walking distance.

Pendry Chicago

Pendry Chicago brings together the skyscraper glamour of Chicago’s Art Deco era and Pendry’s signature language of contemporary, residential-style luxury in a city address that feels both historically grounded and distinctly modern. Set in the heart of the Loop just off Michigan Avenue, the hotel occupies the landmark Carbide & Carbon Building, completed in 1929 and designed by Burnham Brothers, the firm founded by the sons of Daniel Burnham. Clad in black granite, green terra cotta, and gold detailing, the building has long been considered one of the most recognizable silhouettes on the Chicago skyline. Pendry has reimagined this historic icon as a contemporary boutique hotel with 364 guestrooms and suites, where interiors echo the building’s original Art Deco language while introducing a softer, more comfortable, and subtly residential approach to modern luxury. The result preserves the architectural spirit of old Chicago while giving it the sharper rhythm expected of a high-end urban stay today.

Dining and public spaces further define the hotel’s character. Venteux combines the atmosphere of a French brasserie, Champagne bar, and oyster bar, using 40-foot windows, indoor-outdoor café-style seating, and a brighter dining mood to bring a touch of Parisian energy to Michigan Avenue. Bar Pendry extends the hotel’s more polished and understated social tone, while Château Carbide on the 24th floor takes things upward with a rooftop lounge that pairs craft cocktails, Champagne, light bites, and skyline views in a setting with a stronger sense of drama. In spirit, Pendry Chicago is not merely a landmark hotel carried by its historic façade, but a contemporary Chicago address shaped by Art Deco architectural heritage, modern boutique lifestyle sensibility, and elevated social spaces—particularly suited to travelers who want to stay within one of the city’s classic silhouettes while embracing a younger, more stylish way of experiencing it.

This hotel holds 560 guest rooms, carrying the brand's spirit of discovery into a clean, contemporary design language. The rooms run a generous 330 square feet, with bathrooms larger than the city standard, in-room refrigerators, and broad windows that, in many cases, frame the Chicago River and the skyline beyond. Mornings here begin with the curtains drawn back on water and steel, the light shifting across the towers.

Up on the roof, Raised – An Urban Rooftop Bar is a rare downtown perch, pairing inventive cocktails and creative American plates with sweeping views over the city and the Riverwalk, at its best as the afternoon slides into evening (21 and over only). Down at street level, Staytion Market & Bar serves a playful reinvention of Chicago's street food from early morning onward, carrying the rhythm of a full day from breakfast through dinner.
