The Peninsula Chicago, just off the Magnificent Mile on East Superior Street, is one of the city's two or three top luxury hotels and a fixture on national best-hotel lists. Operated by the storied Hong Kong-based Peninsula group, it's defined above all by its service, which is consistently described as among the most polished in the country.

The rooms are large by Chicago standards, with the technology and finishes you'd expect at this tier. The hotel's social heart is its dramatic lobby, where afternoon tea is a Chicago institution, and its top-floor spa, pool, and sun terrace are a genuine retreat with skyline views. Dining is strong across multiple venues. Rates sit firmly at the top of the market.

The location is ideal for first-time visitors: the Magnificent Mile shopping is at the doorstep, the Museum of Contemporary Art and 360 Chicago are a short walk, and the river and the Loop are easily reached on foot. It's the choice for travelers who want full-service, no-compromise luxury in the heart of the near-north shopping district.
