Sofitel Chicago Water Tower

The Windy City has long been home to Italian and Irish Americans, but there is now a French revolution underway at 20 East Chestnut - where Sofitel Chicago Water Tower resides. This 32-story downtown delight boasts a sleek design with equally modern interiors. Rooms take on a minimalist feel without sacrificing noted amenities. It is pure pleasure with designer furnishings, oversize marble baths, and cityscape views. The lobby, illuminated by the soft glow of candles, boasts relaxing conversational nooks, intriguing artwork and the aroma of fresh flowers.

Sofitel Chicago Water Tower is also changing the face of local cuisine behind the doors of its own Café des Architectes, a contemporary French brasserie featuring fusion dining with traditional French fare. Mediterranean, Asian and Latin American influences are all present and accounted for as well. The traditional fromage plate, a French staple, is readily available as are fresh salads, lobster and scallops, the finest cuts of beef and other delectable offerings. Le Bar is magnificent with its fiber optic lighting, warm wood and stainless steel bar, and nightly crowd of Chicago's best dressed. Martinis are poured tableside and petite palate-pleasing plates allow you to sample and share a variety of dishes. Raise a glass to your location, which is within walking distance to some of the city's most notable venues, including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Michigan Avenue shops, and the pubs that line Rush Street. Take the L to Wrigley Field or stroll through lakefront Lincoln Park. Sofitel Chicago Water Tower, a blend of French flair and Midwestern hospitality, is appealing to everyone.
