The luxury 4-star Millennium Knickerbocker hotel offers timeless hospitality and modern sophistication from within Chicago’s historic Gold Coast. Located on the Magnificent Mile, and only minutes away from Lake Michigan, the hotel is ideally placed for shopping and entertainment. Guests are just around the corner from Michigan Avenue and its wealth of high-end retailers, as well as attractions such as the Art Institute of Chicago and Willis Tower Skydeck, the tallest building in the US. Built in 1927, the hotel’s 14-storey, gothic-inspired exterior belies a warm and contemporary interior well-suited to a 21st century traveller’s needs. The hotel provides complimentary access to a fully-renovated, 24-hour fitness centre and is non-smoking throughout the premises. The NiX restaurant caters for breakfast and lunch in a bistro setting. (Room service is also available.) Serving simple and delicious American cuisine, it is an authentic downtown Chicago experience not to be missed. The ‘M’ martini bar is a comparatively refined and urbane establishment, featuring live music and a menu consisting of over 50 wines and martinis, the latter ranging from a Broadway’s Naked Cowboy to a Funky Monkey. Measuring roughly 28sqm, the well-appointed Superior guestrooms boast a king-sized bed with 400 thread-count Frette bedding. Amenities include internet access (chargeable), a fully stocked mini-bar and a beautiful bathroom replete with granite countertops and a rain shower. A nearby commercially-operated facility offers valet parking.
