"It's a bustling convention hotel, but one that retains its distinguished 1920s heritage in a Renaissance-inspired entrance hall and gold-and-gilt grand ballroom."

"The historic, 1,544-room Hilton Chicago once hosted presidents and dignitaries, but today it's just a massive chain hotel in South Loop, a little far from many popular tourist sites."

Time Out
"The hotel boasts its own charm: fine art décor, 'executive' level for pampering and pub authenticity from Irish exchange program for staff."

"The capacious lobby of this monolith—bright with chandeliers, marble and faux-gold flourishes, and frescoes overhead—makes a dramatic first impression. "

"Located just north of the Sofitel and Waldorf Astoria, this sexy hotel provides more cosmopolitan flair than anything you'll find in the city's cache of Kimpton properties."

"When it opens in summer 2013, this property --- formerly The Sutton Place Hotel --- will blend in perfectly with its luxe surroundings in Chicago's affluent Gold Coast neighborhood."
Frommer's
"As I write this, The Thompson is the “it” place in Chicago, thanks to its quirky cool design, plus the popular onsite restaurant, Nico Osteria."
