"With the feel of an upscale European inn -- and a loyal clientele of regulars -- the Talbott is one of the city's best small, independent hotels." Full review
Fodor's
"Built in 1927, the hotel retains bits of that historical feel but has also focused on making the space eco- and tech-friendly." Full review
Time Out
"Quite possibly the only hotel in the world with a life-sized cow mounted on its frontage... this boutique hotel is reminiscent of a small, upmarket European inn." Full review
Star Service
"On a lovely tree-lined street one block from Water Tower Place...this is the perfect hotel for those who suffer existential angst while staying at the large generic chain hotels." Full review
Gayot

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."
Zagat

Condé Nast Traveler
