Beaux-arts glamour in the Loop
Awash in spotlights and marked by a big red W, this Loop hotel makes a fashionable statement in the Windy City. Fusing modern touches with classic Chicago architecture, the AAA four diamond property drips with drama. From the grand lobby boasting marble pillars and a vaulted ceiling, there's a sense of history at the W Chicago City Center with a nod to Chicago's role in modern architecture. Guest rooms ooze signature Starwood style, while a convenient location in the Financial District near theaters appeals to business and leisure travelers.

Good for center City or if you have somewhere to go outside of Chicago
Hotel is a 5 min walk from Union Station, so if your stay in Chicago involves going/seeing anyone outside of downtown, its very convenient to the Metra. Otherwise the the hotel is usual W experience... no great views in this one, but comfortable bed, good multimedia options in the room. But also as with the W...no free Wi-Fi - they really need to change that policy, its becoming a bigger reason not to choose a W hotel.

Excellent downtown hotel
I saw two Cubs games, two movies, and ate at some of my favorite restaurants. I love Petterino's!

EL every 15 minutes request high room
The W Chicago had a fantastic lobby with a nice and knowledgeable staff. The rooms were cool and ultra modern. The El passed too close (every 20 minutes) to my room and was unfortunately quite loud. The DVD/TV connections did not work either, I was told that new flatscreens were recently installed. The valet of over $50 a day is a complete ripoff considering downtown weekend street parking is free. The staff was all very accommodating and helpful. Great Hummus appetizer at the bar.

W City Center
The W City Center location is ideal, a quick walk from Union Station. I had booked in so that I could have fun with friends in the city and not have to worry about trekking back to the suburbs late at night. I was surprised that for the price of room I paid for the room was the size of my cubicle at work. It was clean, with trendy design and yummy smelling organic soaps. The flat screen TV and IPOD docking station were a plus. The bed was soft and comfy, but the window looked out on a noisy alley so I couldn't open my window for fresh air while I slept. For a great location, a rocking lobby, overall friendliness of staff, this property was excellent. For quality of room for the money, you may want to haggle for an upgrade upon check-in.

Sheek but small
It's a W so it's not that bad...But a two things kept bothering me. In the restroom, when sitting on the toilet, the counter top for the vanity hung over the toilet so far I had to run sideways to sit down, and my left shoulder caught the corner of it as i was standing a few times, you had to turn sideways to get up too. In the middle of the night it got in the way. I'm grateful for the airconditioner due to Chicago was experiencing hot weather, but the unit in the room was so loud. When it was running you couldn't hear the tv, or really talk on the phone until it turned off. The unit hung from the ceiling and was quite large for a room that was small. That's all. I will stay there again.
