This classic Loop hotel has 19th-century charm and 21st-century service and amenities. Contributor on
05-22-2008
A Chicago landmark and downtown mainstay, this hotel's elegance remains undimmed after more than a century of operation. The breathtaking lobby ceiling features oil paintings of figures from Greek mythology. In the 1,640 guest rooms and 83 suites, the decor is more subdued than in the ornate lobby. The hotel's vintage charm remains, however, in the bathrooms' deep tubs. Suites have separate sitting and dining areas plus wet bars. Perks for business travelers include a high-end restaurant, Lockwood Restaurant & Bar, as well as a classic cocktail lounge, Potter's Lounge, on the lobby level. Audio/visual equipment rental, a business center and in-room ethernet data ports make for smoother meetings. Other amenities include a pet-friendly policy, a fitness center with steam room and sauna and an indoor pool.
