"They don't build them like this anymore. The Venetian Gothic exterior gives way to 19th-century interiors, complete with carved stone fireplaces, terrazzo floors, and leaded glass—all freshly restored. Rooms vary in dimension widely, with the most spacious overlooking Millennium Park. Brass-bed-inspired headboards and Faribault Woolen Mill Company blankets make even the bed a bit retro, though still cozy by modern sleep standards. The Chicago Athletic Association has a strong local following for its historic lobby, indoor entertaining with Topgolf Swing Suites, foosball in its game room, historic basketball court, the gem-like Milk Room bar, and the clubby Cherry Circle Room restaurant. On the rooftop, and mostly enclosed by an atrium, Cindy's cranks it up with stunning cocktails, seasonal dishes and fresh seafood, and a year-round terrace with some of the best views over Millennium Park. Come for the design, and stay for the location and amenities."
