"The 520-room W Chicago - Lakeshore delivers the chic decor you'd expect from a W, and the impressive features." Full review
Time Out "The city’s second W hotel has come a long way from its previous incarnation as a Days Inn. The hotel has a sleek, casually expensive décor." Full review

Gayot "Formerly a budget hotel, this place was transformed into a sophisticated urban retreat in 2001."
BlackBook "This W hotel flaunts a tranquil, lake-side location and the hipper-than-thou lounge Whiskey Sky, located on the 33rd floor."

Lonely Planet "The hallways sport trippy glowing carpet that leads to your modern-design 'wonderful' (city view), 'spectacular' (lake view) or 'fabulous' room (lake view from a higher floor)." Full review

Time Out "This historic 443-room hotel was built in 1924 as Michigan Avenue’s first high-rise. Though its popular Tip Top Tap lounge is long gone, its sign is ever aglow." Full review
Fodor's "Named a National Historic Landmark in 1999, this limestone building was a residential "club hotel" for men when it opened in 1924." Full review
Star Service "Best of all, its rates are often discounted steeply to keep its rooms filled, and it is a significant step up from the other historic hotel in town, the Congress Plaza." Full review
Not For Tourists "Built between 1922-1924 by the Allerton House Co. as part of national chain of “club hotels” providing young professionals with hotel service and private club sociability, the 25-story..."
