Jetsetter "Chicago’s Gold Coast glamour pad, with high-tech rooms and a much anticipated eatery." Full review
Lonely Planet "Walking into one of the all-business guest rooms might just remind you of a man’s suit... the contemporary decor is accented by Robert Mapplethorpe’s floral photos." Full review
Star Service "Located just north of the Sofitel and Waldorf Astoria, this sexy hotel provides more cosmopolitan flair than anything you'll find in the city's cache of Kimpton properties." Full review
Gayot "When it opens in summer 2013, this property --- formerly The Sutton Place Hotel --- will blend in perfectly with its luxe surroundings in Chicago's affluent Gold Coast neighborhood."
Frommer's "As I write this, The Thompson is the “it” place in Chicago, thanks to its quirky cool design, plus the popular onsite restaurant, Nico Osteria." Full review

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
