Suite, 2 Bedrooms

The suite looks out over the downtown skyline and the Chicago Riverwalk. The 39-story tower stands at 71 E Wacker Drive, right beside the river, where the Chicago River meets Michigan Avenue.

The suite has one king bed plus additional bedding and sleeps up to five guests. A rollaway/extra bed is available for a surcharge. Children 17 and under stay free using existing bedding in a parent's or guardian's room, while guests 18 and over are charged as adults.

It is 1,700 sq. ft. with two bedrooms, which gives a family or a small group much more room than a standard guest room. Both bedrooms have pillowtop mattresses, down comforters, hypo-allergenic bedding and blackout drapes. The suite is individually decorated and furnished, and it has a desk and chair if you need to work.

The private bathroom has a shower/bathtub combination. It comes with bathrobes, slippers, towels, a hair dryer and free toiletries.

It was designed with accessibility in mind. It has a ceiling hoist, thin-pile carpet for easier movement and a closed-captioned TV. Guests who need specific features should mention them when booking so the hotel can match them to the room.

Yes, for both. Children of all ages are welcome. The suite has two bedrooms, a refrigerator, a coffee/tea maker, a desk, free local calls and an iron and ironing board. Connecting rooms are available if your group needs more space. The front desk and business center run 24 hours a day.

A mandatory $32 daily Destination Fee covers 24/7 fitness center access, basic Wi-Fi for unlimited devices, two bottles of water on arrival and a $10 food and beverage credit at Hoyt's. The suite itself also has a 37-inch TV with premium channels and free Wi-Fi. The fee is waived on the hotel's Government Rate.

Hoyt's Chicago is the hotel restaurant. It serves American dishes for breakfast, lunch, dinner and happy hour, takes reservations, and offers in-room dining from 6:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. The Market Place bar pours local beer, wine and cocktails. On foot, the Riverwalk is about 4 minutes away, Cloud Gate (the "Bean") about 5, and Millennium Park and the Art Institute about 7 each. The Magnificent Mile is about a block east.

The hotel has no swimming pool. It does have a 24/7 fitness center with cardio and strength equipment and a Peloton bike, and you can jog along the Riverwalk. For swimming, Chicago's Lake Michigan beaches are free to use. Oak Street Beach is the one most often cited as closest to the Loop, and it is a freshwater lake rather than the ocean.

The hotel has no airport shuttle. The rapid transit system is about one block away. The CTA Blue Line runs from O'Hare in roughly 40–55 minutes for a $5 fare, and the Orange Line runs from Midway in roughly 30–40 minutes. If you bring a car, the hotel offers valet parking, and the overnight valet fee includes three limited in-and-out privileges. The hotel garage has a 6'3" height limit. Discounted self-parking is also available at off-site garages.
