    A modern hotel in a glass walled building with great views of the lake and the city. The rooms are very comfortable, but the decor is a bit blah. The service is precise, but not always flexible when there is a problem.

    There is an exercise center/spa/pool on the top floor with spectacular views. Sometimes you can get a weekend special that includes this amenity.

    The Swissotel is situated right off the Chicago River, on Wacker Drive, just 4 blocks from theMagnificent Mile.The hotel puts you right in the middle of the Chicago Loop, and Michigan Ave, putting all the main attractions in easy walking distance for even lazy walkers like me. The hotel also provides guest with great views of Chicago, from any room in the hotel. We stayed on the south side facing beautiful Grant park, and Michigan Lake right out our window. From the north side of the hotel, u are treated with views of Navy pier and North Michigan Ave. The hotel provides great dining with 2 on sight restaurants, and also a great cocktail lounge in the lobby. For all the Swissotel has to offer, visit the following link SWISSOTEL *Please feel free to rate this tip, or any of my other tips. I am always looking to Improve. Thank u...

    One of the great highlights of th hotel was its penthouse spa. located on the 41st floor, it provides aerobic machines, strenth equipment, sauna, whirlpool and a 45ft. heated swimming pool. You cant beat swimming in a heated pool while you watch snow flurries coming down over th chicago skyline...

    The Swissotel is an excellent hotel! The Swissotel has this really unique quality in making you feel right at home! And the rooms are roomy and comfortable. Around Christmas time, the lobby is decorated gorgeously!! I highly recommend the hotel--it's a nice break from downtown Chicago, because it's quiet and just very homey. I love it!

    The first thing I always remember was that we had a really cool bathroom! :-) We had a phone in there actually. But the bathroom and closet were both HUGE!! And for 4 girls getting ready at the same time all the time, that's a great quality. We also had an incredible view of the Navy Pier while it was snowing. We also had a pretty good view of the Lake. It was better than only being able to look into the next building. ;-) I highly recommend Swissotel! I'll get some pictures for you sometime soon hopefully!

  • The Swissotel is a very nice hotel in the heart of Chicago. Although it's a little farther off Michigan than some of the other hotels (read a couple blocks) it's worth it. The hotel has been ranked as one of the Top 500 in the World by Travel & Leisure magazine. The guest rooms afford nice views of the city and lake.

    It stands out in the Chicago skyline due to it's triangular shape. The rooms are unique and modern and the gym is outstanding. They feature a nice indoor, heated pool and jacuzzi on the 42nd floor.

    The Swisshotel is a fairly luxurious place, but the emphasis is on comfort and service, not on glitz. It's primarily a businessman's hotel, there aren't a lot of snazzy facilities on the site, but it is close to everything in the Loop and up Michigan Avenue, and since it's at the end of Wacker Drive, it's actually fairly quiet. Expensive - yes, but there are some great discount rates through the usual sources.

    The Hotel is ingeniously designed in an intriguing wedge shape, and the rooms are situated so that every one faces either Lake Michigan or the Chicago River. The swimming pool and exercise facilities are on the 43rd floor, with views that are pretty spectacular.

  • If money is no object, go ahead and stay at the Swissotel, right on the river. At the moment, getting there via car was a pain due to construction on Wacker Drive. It sort of felt like 'Charlie on the MTA' (Kingston Trio, 1960's---I'm old) because you could see places but getting to them was another thing entirely. $$$$ imported staff. If I were paying for the trip, I'd probably stay atthe new hostel on the corner of WABASH AND CONGRESS. Beats me, but the room we were in cost $275 per night. We three generations of girls shared one king bed. Our window looked out on Metro Golf. The river side windows gave a perfect view of Navy Pier.

  • the Suissotel, along the river for government travelers, this is the per diem rate (about $130-140). For regular visitors, it's a bit higher... check the Suissotel website for current rates.

    convenient to the good shopping areas & also to the river; wonderful service (I even got directions to the nearest Catholic church); Lindt chocolates at the front desk; an underground tunnel that connects the hotel to the Hyatt & other area buildings (great when your business conference is at the Hyatt and it's cold & windy outside...); wonderful plush bathrobes in your room...
