Nightlife Options

Though it’s not in the heart of Chicago nightlife, the hotel has a cozy on-site bar for a nightcap and is close enough to explore nearby lounges or head into the city for pre- and post-show drinks. It’s a great pick for those who want access to excitement but the option for quiet downtime, too.

What People Say

Areas for Improvement
