The Gwen Hotel, nestled in the heart of Chicago, offers stylish rooms paired with exceptional service, a chic terrace bar, and stunning city views.
"The Gwen, located on the city’s famed Magnificent Mile and in the landmark McGraw-Hill building—with its 1928 facade wholly preserved—truly reflects the character of Chicago. Art Deco interiors with taupe- and gold-hued rooms emanate old-fashioned glamour and chic modernity all at once. Drinks at the rooftop bar and restaurant, Upstairs at the Gwen, is the perfect start or end to a romantic weekend. You can also book one of the special romance packages, which include things like prosecco at check-in and a rose petal turndown."

"The Gwen is named for Gwen Lux, a Chicago–born pioneering female sculptor of the 20th century and a fitting icon for the Chicago installment of Marriott’s Luxury Collection, which aims to make each hotel reflect the character of its place. The hotel, located on the city’s famed Magnificent Mile and in the landmark McGraw-Hill building—with its 1928 facade wholly preserved—does just that. Art Deco interiors with taupe- and gold-hued rooms emanate old-fashioned glamour and chic modernity all at once. The rooftop bar and restaurant, Upstairs at the Gwen, is buzzy as can be when the weather is nice, and your best shot for mingling with a crowd beyond the hotel’s typical guests on business travel." - CNT Editors
"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." - The MICHELIN Guide
