Fodor's "The Swissôtel's triangular Harry Weese design allows for panoramic vistas of the city, lake, or river—and the comfortable, contemporary rooms feel like condos, with marble bathrooms." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Swiss efficiency in downtown Chicago with services geared for business travelers (there's a new 38,000-square-foot event center)." Full review
Jetsetter "Refined Swiss sophistication, crisp service and unmatched views of the Windy City and Lake Michigan." Full review
Time Out "The hotel is a thoroughly high-tech operation, from the ergonomically designed furniture to the 42nd-floor state-of-the-art fitness center offering jaw-dropping views of Lake Michigan." Full review
Star Service "At Illinois Center, next door to the larger, bustling Hyatt and across the river from the Sheraton, this Swiss treat is a standout when it comes to location and views from the amenity-rich guest rooms." Full review
Gayot "This hotel's decor manages to be both modern and warm at the same time, with a chic limestone-floored lobby and cool, inviting colors throughout."
Zagat4.5
"“Modern and comfy” rooms showcase “killer views” of the Chicago River and Lake Michigan at this “outstanding” “customer-oriented” property that remains “European at its core.”"
Frommer's "Gorgeous views on all sides, including the lake to the east. The rooms are more practical than plush, with large work desks and lots of natural light coming in from the windows" Full review
Lonely Planet "Water vistas are just part of the attraction at this triangular-shaped, mirrored-glass high-rise at the confluence of river and lake." Full review

Michelin Guide "This hotel has the cottage look down pat, and the upbeat personality extends to the guestrooms."
Frommer's "The Indigo is perfect for anyone looking for a cool (but not too edgy) alternative to the cookie-cutter business hotel." Full review
Concierge "Part of a midpriced boutique chain launched by InterContinental Hotels, the Hotel Indigo has an exuberant Margaritaville-meets-Nantucket design theme."
Fodor's "Even though this hotel caters to business travelers, there is something refreshingly noncorporate about its guest rooms and lobby, which is dressed in plucky blues and greens."
Travel + Leisure "As soon as the blue-and-white sailor-striped décor begins to make you forget the city outside, the genius of the beach concept becomes apparent." Full review
Star Service "A more free-spirited version of Starwood's W Hotel brand, this place is geared more toward cost-cutting commercial types and midrange leisure travelers." Full review
Gayot "This member of the Indigo collection brings stylish, inexpensive chain lodging to the Windy City."
BlackBook "It's tucked away on a quiet Gold Coast residential street, and that's exactly how they'd like to make you feel: at home."
Zagat4.2
"A “very friendly” staff welcomes guests at this “cozy” boutique with “fun Florida Keys decor”, where the “beach-themed” rooms are on the “smaller” side but “bright and comfortable"."
Condé Nast Traveler "A quiet oasis in one of Chicago's most tourist-friendly neighborhoods, Claridge House offers the best of both worlds" Full review
