Beautiful historic old building, with significant attention paid to historical preservation in conversion to hotel. Quiet, relaxing atmosphere in lobby and contiguous rooms. The advertised “view of Millennium Park” was exaggerated, actually only possible if one kneels on the sofa and cranes your neck. Shower is problematic as the glass enclosure leaks, creating a huge puddle extending across the entire room to the toilet. It took 5 large bath towers to sop it up. Otherwise we had a pleasant stay.

Hotel is on a prime location which was nice. House keeping was on point. Honestly is overpriced for what you get (not even free breakfast ) we had to drive around twice to figure out where the lobby was, went inside to find out where to park or check in did not find anybody to assist us. Air conditioning worked whenever it pleased, can barely see the numbers on the displayed monitor.. Only good thing was location.

Super unique hotel with gorgeous architecture. The bars and restaurants were fantastic and the view from Cindy's rooftop were amazing. The rooms are well-appointed and good sized. I'm very picky about my bed and it was comfy! Staff were so friendly and helpful. We loved the location and its walkable to Millenium Park, Lake Michigan, Riverwalk, Art Institute, train station and tons of restaurants and bars.
