Thompson Chicago is a sophisticated property with eclectic decor with urban and British inspiration. Guests will find many rich textures like leather and velvet in deep jewel tones scattered with mid-century modern lines and warm American hardwoods. This unique boutique hotel is ideally located on the edge of Michigan Avenue. Plus, Lake Michigan is just moments from the property. Also nearby is the Oak Street Beach, the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art, and Wrigley Field.

The luxury studios offer views of the Magnificent Mile and the downtown Chicago cityscape with Lake Michigan glittering in the distance. Rooms come outfitted with plush king-sized beds or cozy double beds, all of them made up with 400 thread count Sferra sheets. The modern baths contain cream-colored tiles and rain showers. Plus, there is a gourmet mini-bar and in-room safe. Those seeking extra space will want to book one of the larger suites including the Junior Suite, Skyline Loft Suite, Thompson Suite, or the Penthouse. The Penthouse is 655 square feet spread across two levels. Some of the suites include private terraces.

Dining options include Nico Osteria, an Italian seafood restaurant that serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner each day. Guests can choose from house-made pasta, fresh seafood, and season rustic fare. The menu changes each day to reflect the catches of local fisherman. There is also a wine bar and cocktail lounge on the property called Salone Nico. The wine list is extensive, featuring bottles from Greece and Italy, and there are afternoon aperitifs, and handcrafted cocktails on offer as well.

A
6.8 Okay
Pros:comfy bed, great location, nice lobby.
Cons:Front desk lady was not very helpful. Toilet smelled like sewage. They called me from front desk to tell me someone was at my door from hotel personnel when I had privacy sign on...that woke me up...What kind of "privacy on" is this?
A
9.4 Wonderful
Pros:Nice Interior Design. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. This is a much better location than other hotels I have stayed at further south. We took a very nice walk north to Lincoln Park. It is a beautiful neighborhood and does not even feel like you are in the city.
Cons:Too pricey for me to use other than business. I did not need or use "facilities" so that is the only reason I did not give that an "excellent" score. We were not impressed with the breakfast food. We were very pleased with our lunch at Gibson's across the street.
A

10.0 Wonderful
Pros:We loved everything about it. From the very beginning (checkin) till the very last second before we left the hotel. Everyone was so helpful and friendly. The Concierge made arrangements for a boat trip on the Chicago River. Housekeeping kept our room in perfect shape. We had a room on the 21st floor which had the perfect view towards the chicago skyline. It was awesome. I gladly recommend to visit the Thompson Chicago and will for sure also book on other occasions other Thompson hotels. Thank you for this very wonderful and perfect vacation, Thompson.
