"Opened in late 2010, this upscale hotel is housed in a historic neoclassical-style building with crystal chandeliers and a grand staircase in the lobby." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Its location in the Loop, a block from the Board of Trade, screams “business hotel,” but this 610-room Marriott defies that categorization." Full review
Star Service "Nonetheless, this Marriott is one of the only deluxe-leaning addresses in The Loop, as most of the deluxe hotels cluster near Michigan Avenue, north of the river.

Gayot "Among American cities, Chicago has one of the finest architectural legacies, which is why we're so glad to see the restoration of its Daniel Burnham."
BlackBook "The 610-room hotel focuses on modern luxury with crisp and sophisticated rooms set with bright, warm colors and amenities like an indoor pool and a spa complete with Turkish baths."
