Excellent upscale hotel and dining , in the middle of Chicago.
Service was excellent. Hotel is amazing. Food is elevated and the drinks are unique delicious and some modern takes on classics. Our hotel ambassador LUIGI was sooo helpful even though he is a Packers fan. Highly recommend a visit. Thx

Very comfortable place to stay
Very comfortable property. All the staff were very nice. Great location for shopping and seeing the sites. Complimentary tickets to John Hancock 360 experience was a huge plus. Really enjoyed that. Restaurant, bar and lobby area were nice place to hang out.

The Staff make this hotel totally special
The Gwen is a lovely hotel in a fantastic location, just off Michigan Avenue, just north of the river in downtown Chicago. And if the high-end North Bridge Mall is open, you can walk through to get right onto the Magnificent Mile. More than the beautiful atmosphere, spacious rooms and sumptuous bathrooms, though, are the dedicated and helpful staff. At our recent stay, Darcel, Judie, Annabelle, and Juan were attentive and personable—making our stay above and beyond. We will definitely return on our next trip.

Luxury hotel with excellent location
Luigi and Jason were very helpful during check-in with many tips about where to eat and transportation. We were here for the Bears game and this stay made a big difference in the whole experience. We got to enjoy the Christmas lighting event and the parade as well. The room is clean and spacious. The staff at the rooftop bar was very courteous and seated us quickly. The breakfast and the afternoon bites are pretty good, with good selections of cocktails and beverages.
