We really like The Emily Hotel Chicago. We've stayed a few times this year because the location is very near many great restaurants and bars. The hotel itself has really good dining and lounge options. The staff treats us very well and the rooms and beds are clean and comfortable. A great hotel in a really fun part of town!

You all have missed a GREAT experience! University of Chicago closed it in October and there was not enough support from the community or State of WI to take it over. What a tragedy!!!
