The Perfect Stay.
I'm constantly on the road, both for work and personal travel. When you have a perfect stay at a hotel, you really have to share it with others. 
Hotel Monaco is in a great location in downtown Chicago, a few blocks from the Magnificent Mile and right on the river. You can also walk to Navy Pier, famous restaurants, and other landmarks in the "Windy City".
The rooms in Hotel Monaco are beyond impressive, and you are met with great service. I will say, since the hotel is not exactly the cheapest in the city, spend the extra money to get a "river view" room. The rooms come with little "nooks" with couches right by the windows where you can lay out and get a beautiful view of the river and architecture of the city. I would wake up every morning, go downstairs and grab the free coffee, sprawl out in the nook, and use the free wifi while looking out at the city. The bed and furniture are modern and classy, the rooms were clean, and the service was great. We even had a fish bowl in the room....overall, it was a perfect stay and I would recommend it to anyone.
I don't get to Chicago enough for a city that I've always enjoyed time and time again; but each time I do I will make sure to try and book Hotel Monaco.
