Great option for center city Chicago

A great hotel in a great location. The museum concept sets it apart. Rooms are very spacious for a center city hotel. The independent restaurant in the hotel does a great job with their food. Happy hour is a great deal & the oysters were excellent. Very fresh every day. Don’t frown at the daily resort fee. It gets you 21% off all food at the restaurant your entire stay & entrance to the exhibits.
