"If you're the loll-around-in-bed type, this is a great place to do it; the super-comfy beds feature cushiony pillow-top mattresses, soft duvets, and mounds of pillows." Full review

"Details from the former 1929 Beaux Arts gentleman's club can be seen in the lobby's vaulted arches and gold-leaf ceiling, although a 2009 renovation added thoroughly modern touches."
Lonely Planet
"Employees all wear black at this hip hotel where the soaring ‘living room’ (lobby/bar) feels a little like a dance club, especially when the DJ gets going." Full review

Time Out
"This stunning Beaux Arts building, which started out as a private men’s club in 1929, has been transformed into one of Starwood’s sleek W Hotels." Full review
Star Service
"This trendy design-conscious icon appeals to the yuppie in all of us, an edgy, attitude-prone, design-driven commercial house, pitched to young up-and-comers." Full review

"Recreated as a luxury hotel in 2002, and expanded with 35 new guest rooms in 2012, this property sits in the heart of Chicago's well-known Loop business district, near Willis Tower."
BlackBook
"Stylish rooms with 250 thread-count sheets, wraparound couches, a CD library, and W spa robes prepare you for high-end hobnobbing at people-watching mecca Whiskey Blue."

"This "swank", “trendy” choice in the usually staid Loop looks “more like a nightclub than a hotel”, with a “funky vibe” that's “geared toward a young” clientele."
Fodor's
"With a lobby that feels like a club, and spacious high-tech rooms done up in graphite and cream, this financial district hotel welcomes a lively crowd along with business travelers." Full review

"Leisure travelers seeking an intimate refuge will find the exact opposite here, except when there are no conventions or Chicago Bears games; at those times, the hotel resembles a ghost town." Full review

Avoid the lowest floors, which lack views.

The average-size rooms are decorated in standard business-hotel style; if you can, request one on the north side, which features panoramic views of the city skyline and Lake Michigan.
