Landmark Chicago hotel with hip urban appeal
Built in 1929, the InterContinental Chicago Hotel is a stunning intersection of past and present. Original interiors are steeped in Moorish design, while recent additions are reminiscent of classic urban elegance. Guest rooms vary depending on location in either the main tower or the historic tower. An architectural landmark in the heart of the Magnificent Mile, it's the only hotel whose front doors open to world-famous shopping. A distinguishing feature is the heated, junior Olympic swimming pool that’s still true to its original 1920s architecture.

Great Place with Great Location
This Hotel was perfect for what we were looking for. The room was a little small. We would have liked it to be a little bigger but the location was perfect and the staff was excellent and helpful.

Great for St. Patricks Day
Didn't spend too much time at the hotel because we were always out. Was impressed with quick check in and check out. Room was very clean and room service was great. We were charged for taking two pops out of the refrigerator and we did not take anything. Awesome computer in room that helps you find anywhere from dining to attractions. Staff was very helpful. Was not impressed with connected restaurant Michael Jordan Bar. It didn't really seem that fancy, but it was a very very upscale restaurant. Ended up leaving there because we weren't aware of how high priced it is. I can't review on the food or drink, but definitely stay away from there if you are on a budget.
