AFAR MediaAugust 4, 2014Saturday night is the best time to visit this wonderful place, as they have an insane chocolate bar and a live string quartet that plays their version of modern rock. Read more
Crain's Chicago BusinessDecember 10, 2012Afternoon tea downtown doesn't get any more refined or memorable than this.The pastries are exquisite and numerous, including a teeny, tangy lemon meringue tart. Read more
Francis KellyMay 22, 2014Maybe the finest hotel I've stayed in in the US. Service was superb, food outstanding and design and architecture unique and beautiful.
Cyndi BerzowFebruary 13, 2013The spa here is amazing. Nathan gives the best deep tissue massage and the relaxation room is so tranquil you could take a good snooze or chill by the fire with strawberry water. I never want to leave- Kinofdc WilderDecember 20, 2021WRONGLY reported as closed for several years, and that's what accounted for the gap in tips here. It's undisputedly one of the best hotels in Chicago and in the world.
Travel + LeisureMay 29, 2012The Peninsula Spa by ESPA on the 20th floor has an indoor pool, sundeck, eucalyptus steam room, and fireplace-equipped lounge—not to mention fabulous views of the Windy City. Read more
Echo TongFebruary 21, 2017I ever ate the lunch buffet before. The food is high quality, and the environment is very enjoyable. You can look the skyline of Chicago while you enjoy the food.
Gene YankovskyAugust 10, 2013If the weather is great, the terrace is a must for cocktails or authentic Chinese dim sum at Shanghai Terrace
Cole KennedyNovember 28, 2014The terrace is beautiful. Skating in the winter (though on fake ice) and a great view of the Hancock Tower, Michigan Ave., and the Allerton.- Travel + LeisureFebruary 21, 2014At this stately property, the concierge greets you by name; classical music plays when you enter your room; and your bedside table has a control panel to alert housekeeping when you want service.
- AFAR MediaAugust 4, 2014The service is all luxury....there are plenty of tea selections and the small sandwiches and desserts are extremely tasty. Read more
Mitchell SJanuary 7, 2014I go first class all the way. I stay at 5 star hotels. I use a 5 star car service, Echo Limousine. They have current magazines and bottled water in NEW cars! Read more- One of the greatest hotels I ever visited great service and it’s a wonderful hotel experience 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
- Shannon MulcahyAugust 5, 2013The customer service is the best! Wonderful staff that truly cares about their customers. The spa is also wonderful. Highly recommend the Swedish massage!
Mandy SwansonMarch 22, 2012Beautiful lobby, went to the bar for drinks. Bar is cozy, masculine, and has a fireplace. Luxurious without being pretentious! Great retreat for the winter.
michelle jimenezJanuary 19, 2015I love their bar. Not crowded at all. Good place to go and lounge with a date or some friends. Very limited seats.
Modern MagnateJuly 19, 2012In a city known for having a plethora of fabulous hotels, the Peninsula still shrugs it’s shoulders, casually pops its collar and enjoys being at the top. Read more
StefanieAugust 27, 2014The Lobby restaurant always feels decadent. I especially love the afternoon tea service and breakfast pressed juices.
Anirays Bolivar CaminoJune 12, 2017Finally a place where they understand you have a million things to charge, and the switches are not hidden on the back of the bed (impossible to reach) 🙌🏻
Showtime NetworkJune 4, 2010The Peninsula Hotel has a high tea in their gorgeous lobby area. The views from this hotel are spectacular as well. Their Sunday brunch is a local favorite too. - Nikki
Ricel AlmadovarJune 20, 2015Best place to chill after a frantic work day! Peninsulas all over the world is always a great place to be.
Leonardo GastmannFebruary 7, 2015Their brunch is really great and their portions are relatively big... Worth trying!
ToryBurchApril 18, 2011Just steps away from the Magnificent Mile, the staff at the Peninsula is known for their attention to detail, like leaving a martini glass full of gummy bears in your room.
LindsMay 22, 2010Don't be fooled by the little dishes of what looks like aquarium rocks that they serve at conferences -- they're actually super delicious chocolates. Think, uber-classy M&M's.
SamsoniteMay 3, 2011Experience the city with The Peninsula's Academy! It offers baking classes and scavenger hunts for children of all ages.
