"The 520-room W Chicago - Lakeshore delivers the chic decor you'd expect from a W, and the impressive features." Full review
Time Out "The city’s second W hotel has come a long way from its previous incarnation as a Days Inn. The hotel has a sleek, casually expensive décor." Full review

Lonely Planet "The hallways sport trippy glowing carpet that leads to your modern-design 'wonderful' (city view), 'spectacular' (lake view) or 'fabulous' room (lake view from a higher floor)." Full review

For the best views, ask for a room on the ninth floor or above, facing east toward the park and the lake.

Request a room on floors nine and up for the best lake views (you’ll pay about $40 more for it), and be sure to pop up to the J.
