Swissotel Chicago

The three-sided Swissotel Chicago makes the most of its height and shape with dramatic views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago metroplex from its downtown lakefront location. The 661 newly renovated guest rooms and suites in the AAA four-diamond hotel feature glass-enclosed marble showers, 37-inch plasma TVs, high-speed wireless Internet access, and multimedia docking stations. The forty-second-floor Penthouse Fitness Center with heated pool and Jacuzzi lends new meaning to a breathtaking workout with its bird's-eye views.

The recently completed Event Centre expansion brings the Swissotel Chicago's meeting and convention facilities to 65,000 square feet for business meetings and corporate events to 1,400, including the popular forty-third-floor Zurich Penthouse, which accommodates receptions to 350. Incentives within walking distance include the Art Institute of Chicago, Magnificent Mile shopping, and Navy Pier.
