Rich History
This preeminent luxury hotel in Chicago wasn’t always a hotel. Built in 1929 as the exclusive Medinah Athletic Club, the opulent building at 505 North Michigan Avenue was constructed with larger-than-life architectural details: a bronze doorway, marble columns, a grand staircase, cast-bronze friezes, and painted ceilings. The hotel’s rich history runs deep in Chicago and has been home to thousands of wedding memories over the decades. Aside from our iconic architecture on the outside, the interior stands out even more. With the restored interior dating back almost 100 years, you and your guests are welcome to enjoy the hotel’s history while being a part of it.

If your guests are traveling with kids, there are weekly Dive In Movie nights at the pool, featuring family friendly movies, complimentary refreshments, and larger than life floats to enjoy! If your guests are just looking for some R&R, look no further than the in-house spa that features a dry sauna and 3-level fitness center.
