Time Out
"This historic architectural treasure morphed from the Reliance Building into the Hotel Burnham. Yet a National Historic Landmark, the hotel isn't stuck in the 19th century." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"Set in the magnificent Daniel Burnham-designed Reliance Building, this stunning hotel is both classic and cheerfully contemporary."
BlackBook
"A glamorous mix of historic location and modern style located in the Reliance Building, the world's first steel-frame skyscraper."

"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

Gayot
"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

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
