Frommer's "More comfortable than swanky... On the cutting edge of environmental awareness and has won awards for its eco-friendly practices." Full review

"This 790-room behemoth right on the Magnificent Mile mixes historic charm... with the lackluster contemporary decor of an upscale chain." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The result is an opulent wonderland of terracotta fountains, hand-painted murals, marble mosaics and a 12,000-pound Baccarat crystal chandelier." Full review
Star Service "Built by the Shriners as the Medinah Athletic Club, this place is a tourist attraction all its own, with sightseers occasionally rubbernecking through the public areas on self-guided audio tours. " Full review

The location here on the Magnificent Mile is hard to beat, but be sure to request a corner Michigan Avenue-facing room in the Historic tower.
BlackBook "Acting as the right aorta in the shopping heart of Chicago, it's the only downtown hotel with a front entrance to the Magnificent Mile."
Zagat4.0
"This “beautiful” renovated historic hotel with a "convenient" Michigan Avenue location is the “perfect marriage of old and new” and features a “gorgeous” four-story lobby with tapestries."
Time Out "Complete with an Indiana limestone facade, embellished with relief sculptures and a golden dome at its pinnacle, the building became in instant architectural marvel. " Full review
Not For Tourists "We love the chocolate and wine bar."
Gayot "This building was constructed in 1929 and was returned to its original architectural grandeur by the InterContinental chain in 1990."
Michelin Guide 2 Stars
"The exquisite lobby is the showpiece of the Intercontinental... Though not as grand, the accommodations are decorated in the same old-world vein." Full review

Michelin Guide "Go big or go home seems to be Donald Trump's mantra, and the Trump International Hotel & Tower shows off these principles in all of its glorious, shimmering style."
Frommer's "The overall look is urban contemporary, with none of the flashiness the Trump name might suggest." Full review
Concierge "The hotel occupies a prime riverside perch, taking in the Chicago River, Lake Michigan, and surrounding architectural jewels."
Fodor's "The Trump International Hotel & Tower attracts a crowd of power brokers, women in fur coats, and anyone else who wants top-of-the-line luxury and is ready to pay for it." Full review
OysterLuxury
"This 339-room Trump is one of the top luxury hotels in Chicago, located in a modern glass tower right on the Chicago river and within easy walking distance of the Magnificent Mile." Full review
Rough Guide "New York’s favourite real estate developer has made his mark in the Windy City with this 92-storey hotel."
Star Service "The Trump International Hotel & Tower, in Near North Side, is a commanding presence of stainless steel and glass fronting the Chicago River and situated among the tall towers of the downtown area." Full review
Gayot "This luxury hotel from developer Donald Trump sits on the edge of the Chicago River, at the juncture of the Loop and North Michigan Avenue."
BlackBook "It's hard to tell whether you're in a museum or a hotel with all the original Robert Mapplethorpe photos on the walls and sweeping architectural flourishes...which suits us just fine."
Zagat4.5
"This “simply amazing” 92-story glass tower on the Chicago River “challenges the established high-end players” with “outstanding” service and “posh” rooms."
