The Cabin at Upstairs at the Gwen

Key Street: Michigan Ave. Leads to 7 Key Hotels in Chicago

"The Gwen doesn’t just echo the aesthetics of Twenties and Thirties Chicago, it’s an authentic piece of history — its façade comes from the 1929 McGraw-Hill building, and it’s named for the sculptor Gwen Lux, whose work still adorns it today. Inside it’s a thoroughly contemporary boutique-style luxury hotel, with Art Deco accents and 21st-century comforts. There’s a pan-Mediterranean restaurant, an open-air rooftop bar (complete with firepits), and a weekend “Tipsy Tea” served in the hotel’s lounge; an ideal prelude to an afternoon in what might be one of Chicago’s finest shopping districts." - The MICHELIN Guide
