I stayed at the Dana Hotel & Spa for a business conference. The location is incredible. I was able to take the train from O'Hare Airport to the State/Chicago stop. The hotel was only a couple block walk down State Street from the subway exit. It is also only a few blocks from Michigan Avenue and the John Hancock Building.
The rooms themselves were very nice. Some of the things that stuck out in my mind were the floor to ceiling windows allowing you to look out over the skyline, beautiful hardwoods, a very comfortable bed, and one of the most luxurious showers I have ever seen. The hotel was extremely clean and quiet.
During the conference, we used the rooftop bar/lounge and the hotel restuarant several times. The rooftop lounge has a great atmosphere with a spectatular view. The outdoor portion had neat open flame heaters that keep the area nice and warm. The drink prices were about what I expected for a rooftop lounge in downtown Chicago. The restaurant food was very good. I can't comment on prices as the food was covered in the conference fees.
