I recently stayed at The Wit to celebrate New Years and have a Mini-Moon. I will say that I did a lot of home work before selecting the hotel I wanted. I wanted a hotel great for couples, a great bathroom and and a great view! I found The Wit provided the best opportunity for our needs and price range. We had a King River view Spa room. Upon arrival, I noticed the room we had did not have a shower as I was told it did. I wasn't very happy however I was moved to the same type of a room but with a shower and tub within 5 minutes and it was no problem. We were on the 15th floor facing the river so we were not anywhere near the train. You have your fair sounds of the city though. The beds were not bad. I would probably say a 7. I did not get the feeling this hotel had any attitude as others have mentioned on TripAdvisor. I was very VERY impressed with the service and how very friendly everyone was. The Wit even went out of their way and gave us Champagne and strawberries on the house as we were celebrating our Mini-Moon. Two people stuck out in my mind as Joe and Alex who I mostly worked with. They were wonderful and very helpful. The Wit offers complimentary mini refrigerators. If you move anything from the one you have that is stocked... you will get charged. Those prices are standard as you will see. Elevators I had no issue getting one and I was there for New Years Eve. I used the parking deck right around the corner which was safe and probably $60.00 less after 3 nights and 4 days. NOTE: No in and out privileges in that deck.
THE ROOF was very trendy and did have an amazing view as said. A Coors Light is 7 dollars. That is what you need to expect from The Roof.
STATE AND LAKE (the restaurant downstairs) is also a little pricey but I thought VERY VERY GOOD! Getting breakfast? You are probably going to pay for two people around $25-30. However, it is not your in and out type breakfast. It was gourmet and sooo delicious. Get the Red Velvet Pancakes! We also had dinner at State and Lake and found the dinner to be just as good. Very well done if you don't mind spending a little extra, but I recommend trying!
LOCATION: Perfect Central Location to both sides of Chicago!
WOULD STAY AGAIN!
