The hotel

Step inside Virgin Hotels Chicago and find your new favourite space - where the doors are never closed and the minds are always open to surprise and delight. Offering home-from-home comfort, guest rooms are of the utmost importance, divided into two separate areas – a dressing room and sleeping lounge – and packed to the hilt with mod-cons, including complimentary unlimited WiFi. Eating and dining is something you’ll want to make the most of whilst on holiday and at the hotel we’ve got a variety of restaurants to tempt you. Soak up the private members vibe at The Commons Club, home of the hosted cocktail hour or catch your breath over a coffee at TwoZeroThree, a Euro-style coffee house. Stargazers should make a beeline for the Rooftop Bar Cerise and indulge in craft cocktails and small bites. If you want some inspiration for your trip, the hotel app shares locals’ favourites (and allows you to control the thermostat in your room, order room service and more).

I can’t quite fully describe how incredible my stay was! Especially with it being a birthday trip. From check in with Chad who so generously upgraded my room to a suite! To Danny being accommodating to any needs and to Elina to sending me up a birthday cake with a card. I felt very special and it was so sweet and made my solo birthday trip feel great. The room was so gorgeous and spacious. I love the interior design and layout of everything. I had an amazing view like I requested when I booked and I’m thankful as I know that is always depending on availability! I was able to go up to the rooftop for a bit, I wish I would’ve gotten a better feel of everything as it seemed kind of restricting to reserved seating and I wasn’t able to enjoy the rooftop as full as I would’ve hoped! Nonetheless I loved the time and drink and loved the view. I would love to come back! Thank you to the team for everything and making my stay possible. 🫶🏾 Read less

I needed somewhere to rest because I’m moving apartments and if it wasn’t for Danny at the front desk I’ll be in a bad mood. Thank you for an amazing experience!

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were fun and unique. Bedding was very soft which I enjoyed, but prevented my partner from sleeping very well.

My Girlfriend and I stayed 3 nights here and we really enjoyed our time. The service was great, we enjoyed our room and view, and the quick access to the train, close restaurants and ability to walk quickly to cloudgate and the riverwalk made us very pleased.
