The 18 Best Luxury and Boutique Hotels in Chicago to Book - AFAR

"An industrial brick-and-steel West Loop property that pairs a boisterous dining scene downstairs with serene, Japanese-influenced loft-like rooms upstairs; corridors lined with glowing wooden lanterns set a flattering mood and many rooms deliver dramatic city views. Design contrasts—double-height concrete ceilings against warm natural materials—reward splurges such as rooms with massive teak soaking tubs, while a tranquility pool and rooftop brunch make it a favored insiders’ outdoor hangout; the property also houses the city’s only villa for ultra-private stays." - Heidi Mitchell
