About the Hotel

With echoes of billiard balls, poker chips, and clinking glasses frozen within its walls, this 1890’s Venetian Gothic landmark in the Chicago Loop springs back to life as an incomparable historic downtown Chicago hotel—where the spirit of play reigns supreme. After all, this is the city where the can-and-will-do attitude of Ernie “Let’s Play Two!” Banks lives on, where the father of Chicago blues, Muddy Waters, shook all night long at the Checkerboard Lounge, and Sir Duke tickled the ivories at The Blue Note. And this is the club whose historic members swam with five-time Olympic gold medalist Johnny Weissmuller—a.k.a. the original Hollywood Tarzan—and watched their fellow member Pudge Heffelfinger own so much end zone, he became football’s first pro. Today, Chicago Athletic Association is both a stunning hotel offering outstanding guest rooms and a historic monument to the big-shouldered, switch hitting spirit that defines our city with a downtown location in the Chicago Loop.

Reviews for Chicago Athletic Association Hotel

In the heart of Chicago

Reviewed 2 days ago

This hotel is in a perfect location for visiting Chicago. The history of the hotel added to the experience. The staff and our room over looking the park and lake made it a very special experience. The resturant on the roof, Cindy's has an outdoor space giving a great view of the City, the Lake and the Park.

Love Our Stay

Loved our stay! We had the bi-level suite. Tons of room to spread out. Super clean, great beds, nice amenities! The staff was fantastic. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The food was great and we loved the room service Shake Shack. We would stay here again.

Don't Miss the "Drawing Room"!

Reviewed 4 days ago

I love this hotel! The location cannot be beat in the city of Chicago! The "Drawing Room" on the second floor is such a beautiful place to spend some time having coffee or working on my computer. The extensive wood carvings and two massive fireplaces set the tone of quiet relaxation and peacefulness hidden within the busy city just outside.

Leave Crumbs When You Leaver Your Room

Expensive, small rooms, and it is a maze. After two days I barely figured out the maze of hallways. The place is gorgeous and iconic. The location is absolute perfection. The staff is outstanding, up to classic Hyatt standards. But oh boy, the sticker shock for what I got. Think the Park Hyatt is a better choice at almost the same price.

Great location. Unfortunate "upgraded" room placement.

Reviewed 1 week ago

Hotel is beautiful and the location couldn't be better. However we paid extra to have an upgraded room with park view and ended up under the 8th floor "ball room" which is rented out to apparently whoever has the loudest bass dance music. It seems silly to have rooms priced like this only to find out your under a wedding after party.
