LOCATION
Nestled in the Marina City complex next to the famous House of Blues nightclub, the House of Blues hotel in Chicago, Ill., thrives with a rock 'n' roll ambiance, offering guests a 15-story music-themed luxury experience. Just north of the Loop and steps away from theaters and shopping, the hotel is within 18 miles of O'Hare International Airport.
HOTEL FEATURES
An eclectic mix of Moroccan and Goth Art motifs spills into the House of Blues hotel decor. Wild carpets pave the way for brightly painted luggage carts to maneuver throughout this out-of-the-ordinary hotel lobby complete with a golden Buddha. A Sunday Gospel lunch-brunch and good vibrations from the hotel's dining areas come from Bin 36, featuring five-course tasting menus of inventive American cuisine and breakfast bar with espressos, as well as the nationally acclaimed steakhouse, Smith & Wollensky's. Evenings spent lounging under Moroccan-style tents at Kaz Bar include cocktails and live entertainment weekends, while the hotel's concert hall sounds-off to blues, hip-hop and classic rock music year-round.
The hotel hosts flexible meeting spaces for events, and business services are offered on site. Additional fees apply for use of a high-tech fitness club complete with boxing gym and spa. The building also houses a 36-lane bowling alley.
