The W Chicago - Lakeshore offers a birds-eye (think seagull) view of things. Situated along Lake Shore Drive near the Navy Pier, it's the only hotel in Chicago directly overlooking Lake Michigan, and also provides easy access to the beach itself. So bring your flip-flops (weather permitting) and after you've hit the beach, head for home (that's us). The W Chicago - Lakeshore surrounds guests with impeccable service and distinctive style. Relax in our soothing, Zen-like Living Room. Head for the roof-top lounge to drink in astonishing lake and city views and sizzling nightlife. Enjoy an intimate dinner for two at our signature restaurant. Or retreat to your spacious room, fully-stocked with every comfort, including our own W Munchie box, a snacker's utopia. And if you need anything else, our Whatever/Whenever desk is on duty 24/7. Whether you're here for business or pleasure, we're prepared to help you enjoy the best of both worlds. And with a prime lake view location, we're convenient to the best of everything in the city, from the festivities of Navy Pier to the premiere shopping of Michigan Avenue. Have a blast!

My boyfriend and I stayed here for New Year's Eve. The room was really tiny, it was really disappointing. Also, they had said that pool was going to be open when we made our reservations a couple weeks ago. To our surprise when we got there, they ...

This hotel would be adequate for childless coupless without shy bladders. Booked a room based on good rate and was assured the pool would be fixed by the date of our stay (12/27/09). Pool was not working which was a disappointment to my 11 and 12...

Okay
After we got over the IKEA type rooms - we realized this was more of a "yuppie' (do they still use that word) type hotel. Convenient location, but the front door felt like the hotel was under renovations. Strange to hear Chicago employees...
