LondonHouse's official dining comes from a lobby bar that serves breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner. On the ground floor are three businesses that are building tenants as opposed to being hotel-owned. ![]() There are five restaurants on-site, though not all are affiliated with the hotel. On the same floor, there's a full-service spa for massages, facials, and mani-pedis. LondonHouse's fitness center promises a good workout with treadmills, elliptical machines, and weight machines. Many rooms feature one of the best parts of staying at LondonHouse: the stunning city views. Compare room types and prices for LondonHouse Chicago No matter your room type, for the best view, ask for a north-facing room. However, business travelers on an extended visit or those looking to indulge in a special stay will enjoy the upgraded accommodation. If you don't need the extra space, or plan to spend most of your time sightseeing, a standard room is a fine option. I found my suite to be spacious and well-appointed, but for a better deal, standard rooms are quite similar and include many of the same features, minus the extra living area. There was no stocked minibar, but the room did have a smart fridge, which turned on only when something is placed inside it.

The hotel is part of Hilton's Curio boutique brand, where hotels come with all the Hilton services guests expect, but with a more individual feel. The structure, the interior design, and panoramic views of downtown make the hotel a feast for the eyes. The hotel building is one of four enduring 1920s skyscrapers that anchor the DuSable Bridge (the others are the Wrigley Building, Tribune Tower, and 333 North Michigan).Īfter a detailed renovation and restoration, the 452-room LondonHouse Chicago opened in the spring of 2016 with the addition of a 22-story glass tower and an extremely popular three-level rooftop lounge. But being able to stay in the heart of the city overnight at The LondonHouse instantly rekindled my love affair with my adopted hometown. ![]() Since I work from home on the north side of Chicago, I don't find myself downtown all that much. ![]()
