The rooms and suites are comfortably luxurious with a smart style and plenty of space to stretch out, and the amenities are top notch
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set along the Chicago Riverwalk in Lakeshore East, the property connects directly to waterside paths, with Millennium Park a short stroll away.
The rooms
Floor-to-ceiling windows look across the river and lake, while spacious marble bathrooms feature deep soaking tubs and warm copper accents.
The pool and gym
Bring a swimsuit.
A heated indoor pool looks out toward Lake Michigan, and the 24-hour gym includes three private movement studios.
The spa
Sothys skincare treatments fill seven treatment rooms on the tenth floor, alongside a firelit relaxation lounge.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Tre Dita
Chef Evan Funke serves wood-fired bistecca and handmade pasta beneath 40-foot windows looking out over the water.
These quarters emphasize the luxury of space, which means they aren’t overcrowded with furnishings or flashy patterns, and the thoughtful lighting makes everyone glow;
At the table
Miru serves Japanese dishes on terraces overlooking Lake Michigan, and The Drawing Room hosts evening Champagne sabrage.
How it began
The 101-story skyscraper took shape as three nested glass towers of stacked geometric frustums, rising dynamically above the Chicago riverfront.
“Understated elegance defines the 192 guest rooms… thoughtful lighting and luxury bathrooms—with four styles of soaking tubs—add to the sense of calm.”
