Our Thoughts

What’s not to love about Chicago? Walk along the river, relax at the beach and enjoy attractions galore in the capital of Illinois. And if you’re going, be sure to stay at the Sheraton Grand Chicago. The sprawling Sheraton Grand Chicago is Chicago’s premier downtown riverfront hotel, with an unbeatable location.

Location, location, location

The sprawling Sheraton Grand Chicago is Chicago’s premier downtown riverfront hotel. The location is unbeatable, just steps from Michigan Avenue shopping, Navy Pier and Millennium Park. Not only is the hotel award-winning, it’s chock full of amenities. With five distinctive restaurants, an indoor pool and spectacular views, the Sheraton allows you to immerse yourself in living like a fabulous local.

In room amenities

We usually book a deluxe king room with river views, as they’re part of the refurbishment of the hotel that’s currently underway. They’re also often in a corner, so they’re quieter.

Deluxe king room
Expect flat-screen TVs with cable channels in all 1,218 rooms, WiFi, coffee/tea makers and free bottled water. Minibars provide refreshments, and room service is also available. Pillowtop beds and pillow menus invite a comfortable night’s sleep. And you’ll find nice touches like free toiletries, down comforters, Netflix and safes.

Grab a bite at one of five restaurants on site

The steakhouse, Shulas Steak House, serves American cuisine and is open for dinner. ChiBar is the hotel’s own bar, serving drinks along with dinner and light fare. There’s also a café and a snack bar/deli. Each morning continental breakfast is served between 6:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.

Al fresco dining
When you’re not eating, sneak in a workout at the 24-hour fitness centre, or take a load off in a poolside lounger.

Finally, appreciate free WiFi in public areas and the convenience of valet parking. As a Marriott Bonvoy member, look for member deals. And if you hold status, don’t forget to check for upgrades on check in.
