"This popular rooftop party spot atop the Ace Hotel keeps it cool in the winter by booking the venue with DJs through the season. The indoor space allows for flowing drinks and views overlooking West Loop, while sipping on an always-rotating frozen cocktail to really stick it to winter." - Naomi Waxman
