My husband and I spent the weekend in Chicago for our anniversary. We have stayed in quite a few marvelous Chicago hotels (including the Elysian...beautiful!) over the years, and the Trump International didn't disappoint. The decor is modern and elegant, without being a bit stuffy. The staff is kind and helpful. Rooms are beautiful. We had the most "basic" room and it was luxurious and well appointed. Warm browns and deep golds are the primary colors...with deep green/brown granite. Harmonious and soft. It seems a small detail, but the hair dryers are actual high-end hair dryers...not the anemic ones usually supplied. The small wet bar area was well-appointed.
The property had a marvelous spa, workout facility, and pool. The floor-to-ceiling windows are just as described and are stunning. The spa had many small touches I've rarely seen in hotel spas. Every detail at this hotel seemed to be well-considered.
We had brunch at the main restaurant on Sunday. We hadn't done any research, but anticipated a pricey but simple breakfast. We didn't anticipate a 70$ per person meal...but my husband was seduced, so we indulged. The food/quality/service was excellent, but what put it over the top was the view. Amazing! Was it worth the steep price for what amounted to breakfast? Probably not, however it was an indulgent end to a lovely weekend.
Location perfect...easy access to Miracle Mile. Our anniversary dinner was at Keifers...always excellent.
Trump International a great choice!
