I stayed at Chicao's newest luxury hotel in March, and was absolutely blown away. Not being a huge Donald Trump fan, I was sketical until the moment I walked in the lobby, when I knew this place was special.
Although the 93 story building was not yet complete, the Hotel had just opened, as it occupies only the bottom (now completed) 30 floors.
From the staff at check in, to the 600 + sqft standard rooms, everything was first class all the way...ever seen a Sub-Zero mini-fridge? All fine Italian furniture, Bose CD player on nightstand, IPOD doc, flat screen TV's, including one in the bathroom mirror!
Also full kitchens with Milet stove, dishwasher, even plates, forks, and knives...and I was in a standard room! The views of the river, and lake are nothing short of spectacular, and as a frequent visitor to Chicago, I can say with some authority that there is no hotel in the Chicago with views like this, and no upscale hotel with all the modern ammentities this one has...and did I mention the rooms are huge!
The rates are still low considering, until construction is complete in 2009, and I definitely felt like I was getting a great deal, even though I was still paying $300 a night...the rates supposed to go to $500 a night soon, so make sure to take advantage of Chicago's newest gem, with the best location in the city!
