Modern Vibes Just Steps from Chicago's Music Scene

You’re never far from the music here—whether you’re heading to a stadium show or catching a local act at a nearby club, Aloft’s central location makes getting around easy.

The 24-hour front desk means late-night returns are hassle-free, and soundproofed rooms let you crash peacefully after the encore.

Food and Drink Options

Refuel without going far. The on-site restaurant offers casual bites, and there are vending machines for late-night snacks. While 24/7 room service isn’t available, the hotel is surrounded by walkable eateries ranging from deep-dish favorites to global cuisine. Breakfast is available on-site—perfect for a slow start after a late night out.

Nightlife Options

Aloft’s W XYZ bar offers cocktails and a laid-back vibe, often with live music or DJ sets in the lounge.

Disliked: There is no microwave in the room. That was really surprising and inconvenient. There is a giant lamp in the room with no clear means to turn it off aside from unplugging it.
