Time Out
"This historic architectural treasure morphed from the Reliance Building into the Hotel Burnham. Yet a National Historic Landmark, the hotel isn't stuck in the 19th century." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"Set in the magnificent Daniel Burnham-designed Reliance Building, this stunning hotel is both classic and cheerfully contemporary."
BlackBook
"A glamorous mix of historic location and modern style located in the Reliance Building, the world's first steel-frame skyscraper."
Zagat
