About Loews Chicago Hotel

The lobby hits you with floor-to-ceiling glass and a wall of city light that makes you forget you just dragged luggage through O'Hare. Rooms are clean-lined and quiet, the kind of quiet where you can actually hear the river barges grinding past below if you crack the window. The sheets feel expensive because they are — crisp, cool cotton that smells faintly of nothing, which is exactly what hotel sheets should smell like. Up on the rooftop, the wind off Lake Michigan will cut right through your cocktail buzz while the skyline spreads out like it's showing off, because it is. The restaurant downstairs doesn't try too hard, which works in its favor — solid plates, decent wine list, nobody hovering over your shoulder asking how everything is. The spa exists and does its job if you need someone to unknot whatever your flight did to your shoulders. Location puts you steps from the Mag Mile without dumping you into the tourist crush, and the river walk is right there when you need to clear your head. Book a south-facing room above the tenth floor — the view of the Chicago River bending toward downtown is worth every extra dollar.

Sleek rooms & suites in an upmarket hotel with a chic restaurant & a hip rooftop bar, plus a spa.
