The house
HiltonLakefront pier perch
Set over Lake Michigan along historic Navy Pier, the glass retreat offers direct skyline panoramas and a breezy nautical atmosphere.
“No one would blame you for being distracted by the handsome shipshape design of the rooms, with brass accents and a marine color palette…”
What it’s good at
What they say
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and AFAR.
The glass exterior brings the outside into the building, and cleverly quotes nautical design.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Stationed on Navy Pier, you are steps from tour boat docks and the Chicago Shakespeare Theater, with downtown just onshore.
The rooms
Angled bay window seats frame panoramic lake vistas, accented by curved maritime millwork, weathered brass hardware, and pale driftwood tones.
The gym
- Gym
- 24-hour on-site fitness facility equipped with cardio machines, free weights, and Peloton bikes.
Bar
Offshore Rooftop
A vaulted glass canopy shelters the central bar, where folding doors open onto an expansive lakeside terrace.
At the table
Down on the promenade, Lírica serves Iberian tapas and roasted meats alongside an open kitchen and lakefront terrace.
How it began

The hotel takes its name from the USS Sable, a Great Lakes paddle steamer converted into a World War II training carrier.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
