InterContinental Chicago Magnificent Mile by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"A grand old dame of a hotel, with emphasis on the grand. Although I would skip the in-house restaurants entirely, the place is well-maintained, well-run, with strong service and with a marvelous pool the likes of which one rarely sees. The location is two blocks from the Chicago river. The building itself is part of the Chicago skyline, and architectural gem."
