    If you like Jameson and want something different try the Jame O Smash (the grilled lemon adds a lot to the flavor of the drink....)

    Even with three reservation changes and the entire hotel being under construction you simply cannot beat it. Better than any other Ritz and the best hotel in Chicago, bar none!

    Extraordinary location inside the water tower. Really confortable beds invite you to rest for the whole day. I'll be back

    Love this Ritz! Classy, but not too stuffy!! The rooms are equipped nicely… free overnight shoeshine service available, too! Dry centrally located! Highly recommend!

    Head to the renovated bar in the lobby. Chat with Mel. He’s been there for 20+ years and has a lot of stories to tell. Not to mention he makes a mean whiskey sour :)

    At this location, in addition to the wonderful services provided don’t hesitate to ask the concierge team; they know things about restaurants and attractions you won’t find on the web.

    Beautiful lobby and restaurant area. Rooms are nice but nothing spectacular. Views of the lake are a plus. Sauna and steam rooms are included and a great way to relax

    Well, this Ritz is quite outdated. A refresh is overdue. That said, the service is spectacular as ever.

    Our favorite Gold Coast perch, The Dec Rooftop Lounge + Bar, features barrel-aged cocktails, skyline views, ivy-covered trellises, and a giant, eye-shaped sculpture.

    The Deluxe suites are amazing, very spacious living and dining area, good bedroom and don't get me started on the views especially from the 26th and up.

    Have the afternoon tea- delicious collection of sandwiches, scones, and tiny desserts. You can also have coffee, or with an upcharge you can have champagne.

    Great family-friendly hotel. Make sure to check in with the concierge before arriving, who will arrange special deliveries to your room. Staff treats kids like royalty.

    The view was stunning. Such a nice hotel room. All the little luxuries I guess you should expect from this brand.

    Beautiful hotel! Great staff! Could definitely improve their morning coffee bar though. Pretty poor considering the level of clientele.

    If you're staying at the Ritz (one of Chicago's best hotels) and looking for a night on the town, check out Manor, one of Chicago's best nightclubs. 642 N. Clark Street, just a short a cab ride away Read more

    Great view even from 20th floor. Staff is great and attentive. Meals are pricey for groups so would do hold dinner elsewhere.

    Such a huge disappointment from my last experience here. Not only was the 2 bedroom suite filthy but nothing they said came through. Recommend avoiding. There are a ton of options downtown.
