The Robey is set in a distinctive, narrow Art Deco tower from the late 1920s that anchors the six-corners intersection at the center of Wicker Park — the neighborhood northwest of downtown long associated with Chicago's independent music, art, dining, and nightlife scenes. The hotel restored the building into a design-forward boutique with a strong point of view.
Rooms are sleek and mid-century-modern in feel, many with great neighborhood and skyline views thanks to the tower's height and slim profile. The rooftop — a bar and small pool perched at the top — is a cult favorite for sunset, with the downtown skyline laid out to the southeast. A ground-floor café and a cocktail bar round out the social spaces.
Wicker Park and adjacent Bucktown deliver some of the city's best independent restaurants, bars, live-music venues, vintage shops, and coffee — all walkable from the door, with the Blue Line giving a fast train connection to downtown and to O'Hare. The Robey is for travelers who'd rather wake up in a vibrant residential neighborhood than amid downtown hotels, and who value design and atmosphere.
