"Peace and quiet in an elegant setting."

"It's no wonder lovey-dovey couples are a big part of this hotel's clientele; everything here—from the roaring fireplace in the lobby to the cozy rooms' Victorian-style furnishings—says romance." Full review

"Tucked into a residential neighborhood between Lincoln Park and Wrigley Field, this option is modest, rather than majestic, but quite comfortable. ."
Gayot Gayot
"Although it was built in the style of an English manor, this boutique hotel doesn't limit guests to afternoon tea and crumpets."

Frommer's Frommer's
"Located on a charming tree-lined street -- but convenient to the many restaurants and shops of Lincoln Park -- the Majestic Hotel is a good choice for anyone looking for a quiet retreat." Full review

"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.
