Wait Wait!
What a charming hotel! We loved playing a boar game in the Game Room before our dinner at the rooftop Restraunt Cindy’s! Such a great location, so close to Millenium station and the Fine Arts building. We came in to see a tapping of Wait Wait Don’t Tell me and had an absolutely fabulous time in the city.

The location is really the best thing about this hotel. It relies on that and the history of its namesake. Otherwise it’s just meh. And very overpriced.

6/10 Good

Booked the Founder’s room. The fridge did not work. There were less windows/ no tub which is misleading from the listing. It’s a gorgeous space with some luxe details but misses

Noisy
Overall a great place to stay that’s well located. There was construction work happening that was incredibly loud and began before 8 am in the morning. I struggled to have virtual meetings in my room due to the noise. I wasn’t given advance notice of this by the hotel.

Will stay here again!
We stayed the day after Christmas overnight in a compact room with no view but the amenities in the room are great, the bathroom and bed were very comfortable and the hotel itself is beautifully unique and cozy. A lot of Bear's fans were staying here which made the atmosphere in the game room bar fun.

Christy, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This building is a beautiful piece of history. Multiple restaurants on the foot print along with great customer service as well. The only issue was the heat being turned on and unable to be shut off. There's unfortunately dated heating systems used to warm the entire building. Without an ability to control the temperature in your room it can become uncomfortable very fast.
Jared, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing Chicago hotel
CAA was a great place to stay. We did a one night staycation and it was in a great location to feel like a tourist and enjoy chicagos sights and restaurants. The old school feel was great and was clean and modern at the same time. Easy access to Cindy’s was also a perk.

The hotel was beautiful, the games room was fun, the restaurants were lovely and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Classic older hotel with old world charm. Updates have been with a hat tip towards a long ago charm. Step back in time but without loosing modern conveniences.

Very cool place. Unlike any hotel you have ever stayed in. Funky and Elegant all at the same time. The rooms could use another mirror in them.
