The hype
The hard product—the views, the pool, the restaurants—is spectacular, but the service can feel a bit green for a St. Regis.
The St Regis Chicago
$450-$900+/ noche
Reserva esto si You want to stay in Chicago's newest architectural marvel with stunning river and lake views, and don't mind paying top dollar for a serene location.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- Floor-to-ceiling windows with panoramic lake and river views
- Incredible dining at Miru and Tre Dita
- Massive, warm indoor pool and 12,000 sq ft fitness center
Resumen rápido: It's a gorgeous, billion-dollar skyscraper, but early teething pains with elite benefits and service misses mean it doesn't always hit the 5-star mark.
Reseñado por @chicago_trav: I hosted my staycation in the John Jacob Astor Suite at the St. Regis Chicago and it was incredible. The living space is massive, the fridge came pre-stocked, and the city views from the floor-to-ceiling windows were absolutely unreal. Highly recommend for your next trip!
