Excellent Hotel
From the moment we entered the lobby, the excellent design and comfort was obvious. All staff was extremely friendly, and willing to do what they could. Room service (breakfast) was certainly above average in both quality and choices. I would certainly go back.

Great Stay at Sofitel
Spent a 3 day weekend at the Sofitel Chicago Water Tower and very much enjoyed it. The hotel is modern, the staff very welcoming and the location is outstanding. The hotel is very close to all the sights but since it is a block or so off Michigan Ave you don’t walk out into a packed street. It’s also close to the CTA and taxis queue right outside the front door making it very convenient to get around if you visiting places outside the downtown area. If you like to have wine & snacks in the room (like I do) there’s a market around the corner on State and a cute bakery on Delaware. The room was very comfortable with a good layout and enough space for 2 people. We were on the 16th floor looking east so there were no real landmarks in our view but a big view is nice to have no matter what. The amenities provided in the room were great. Enjoyed the use of the fluffy robe and slippers. My only disappointment was the bathtub which is very shallow and not what you would consider a "soaking tub". But the shower was fantastic- great water pressure. I appreciated the turn down service which included a bottle of Evian. Didn’t try the restaurant or room service since there are so many wonderful places to eat in Chicago! Great place to stay- comfortable, modern and stylish. Perfect location. Would definitely stay here again.

Go to Gibsons Steakhouse, make reservation. Do a city tour and river cruise. Go right out of hotel, one block, great breakfast restaurant. Be prepared, sales tax is 11.25%!!
