Chicago Athletic Association, a Hyatt Hotel

Nice

Well done

I loved staying here. The rooms was very clean, the hotel was very clean, great location, right in front of the Bean, lots of shops around, and much more. Definitely recommend staying here or any business or vacation stays.

This building is a beautiful piece of history. Multiple restaurants on the foot print along with great customer service as well. The only issue was the heat being turned on and unable to be shut off. There's unfortunately dated heating systems used to warm the entire building. Without an ability to control the temperature in your room it can become uncomfortable very fast.

The gameroom was so much fun! Rooms were stunning and so comfortable. Fantastic location. Would have preferred being able to adjust the temperature in the room from a/c to heat ourselves rather than that being dictated by the hotel. We arrived after a cold day and it was warm in our room, but because the system was on heat we couldn't cool down the room enough to our liking even with the windows open and a fan.

We really enjoyed the propery

The location was steps from the Bean and the Art Institute of Chicago, and a short bus ride to the Field Museum, aquarium and planetarium. The service was top notch, from Osay in the lobby to Angie in housekeeping to Philippe in In-Room Dining. Staff always had a smile on their face. There was a range of in-room dining options to pick from and all were delicious. Highly recommend the Home Plate or Belgian waffles for breakfast. And don’t forget their French press coffee!! The gym was clean with multiple machines and weight training areas. We didn’t check out any other area at the gym. Cindy’s Rooftop is beautiful and worth a visit. We only did drinks and dessert. There are non-alcoholic options that were tasty. The porcini cheesecake topped with goat cheese ice cream was out of this world good. And yes, there are candied porcini mushrooms on top. We stayed in the Junior Suite which was spacious for the two of us. The double beds were comfy. The seating area was inviting so we spent a lot of time there. The bathroom was pretty. Loved the floor tiles. The things that we didn’t like: Mini fridge stocked with drinks didn’t fit leftovers. No ice bucket/machine or silverware - have to call in room dining The room was always too warm regardless of thermostat. They brought us a fan. Not enough hooks or shelving in bathroom to hang towels/clothes or put toiletries. No shower curtain so water got everywhere when we showered. Looking forward to coming back soon!

What a marvelous time! We had a staycation & it was so relaxing. Amazing atmosphere & friendly staff!

It was a very nice and fun property. Loved the game room.

The location is really the best thing about this hotel. It relies on that and the history of its namesake. Otherwise it’s just meh. And very overpriced.
