Michelin Guide "There's definitely a bit of whimsy at The Wit... ultra-modern in both design and decor."
Concierge "Located a block south of the Chicago River, on the edge of the theater district, the Wit is Doubletree's successful entrée into the cluster of Chicago hotels... aiming to be one-stop nonstop entertainment complexes."
Fodor's "The atmosphere at this sleek spot, topped by ROOF, one of the Loop's most happening bars around, is fun and youthful." Full review
Insight Guides "The first hotel in a budding chainlet by Doubletree, theWit balances the efficiency of a business hotel with a warm, vacation-style mindset."
Condé Nast Traveler "This smart downtown hotel on reviving State Street combines business traveler essentials with a buzzy scene and quirky touches like recorded birdsong in the hallways." Full review
Time Out "Right in the heart of the Theatre District, this hotel offers rooms with scenic views of the Loop. The hotel features on-site dining, a rooftop bar, a spa and fitness center." Full review
Star Service "An admirable effort from a chain not usually known for its fetching urban character, and there are enough twists and turns to this place that make it entertaining as well as comfortable." Full review
BlackBook "Designed by Chicago architect Jackie Koo with interiors done by Cheryl Rowley, the Wit holds 238 rooms and enough killer views to make Sears seem superfluous."
Zagat4.2
"This "trendy" Loop spot sports a neon lightning bolt down the facade and has more of a boutique sensibility than a typical Doubletree, but still offers the trademark "warm cookie at check-in"."
Travel + Leisure "This high-energy, artsy boutique hotel has it all: spacious, bright rooms with a view; state-of-the- art technology; plush bedding and a spa-inspired bathroom stocked with amenities." Full review
