Renovations Complete @ Four Seasons Chicago & The Ritz-Carlton Chicago
Four Seasons Chicago, Lobby Experience
Chicago is well known for its luxury hotels, as the Windy City is home to the Four Seasons Chicago, The Ritz-Carlton Chicago, Peninsula Chicago and numerous others. The Four Seasons Chicago and The Ritz-Carlton Chicago are sister properties, both located off Chicago’s Magnificent Mile (Michigan Avenue) Although normally competitors, these two hotels enjoy a unique relationship as they are both managed by Four Seasons (a relationship started when Four Seasons founder Isadore Sharp licensed Ritz Carlton’s name for his first U.S. property) Both hotels have recently unveiled renovations that have added contemporary touches while preserving their timeless elegance and unparalleled reputation.
Four Seasons Chicago:
The Four Seasons Chicago offers a unique guest room experience, with guest rooms occupying floors 32-46 (an almost unseen feature, as most newer hotels position guest rooms on lower floors, and residences on higher floors) Regardless of where you are in the hotel, you are certain to benefit from a stellar view. We were particularly pleased with our lake & Michigan Avenue view (which can enjoyed in most Odd Numbered Rooms) Deluxe Four Seasons Executive Suites, Located in the “25″ series of the hotel, offer perhaps the very best views in the hotel.
Four Seasons Chicago has transformed the guest room experience into something more contemporary (from its once more traditional past) offering a warm array of colors and smart furnishings. Perhaps our favorite feature (which can be experienced in any Four Seasons hotel) is the oh so comfortable bed. What’s better than a truly divine bed?… How about a divine bed with a view? Four Seasons Executive Suites and Deluxe Executive Suites feature a larger layout with a separate living room and bedroom area. If you’re traveling with your family, be certain to request an Executive Suite on Floors 30 or 31, as select suites feature unique floor plans with Kitchens as well as 1.5 baths. These floors were also last to be renovated, and feature a different decor from the rest of the hotel. (See photos below)
Four Seasons Executive Suite, 1 King Bed, Separate Living Room & Bedroom Area (Room Number 3111)
Four Seasons Executive Suite, Lake & City View (Room Number 3111)
The Four Seasons Chicago features an unrivaled guest room experience (perhaps with the exception of The Ritz-Carlton Chicago) as well as a long list of amenities and services designed for the savvy business or leisure traveler. Among the many features you may enjoy include an expansive Fitness Center & Spa, Indoor Pool, Elevator Access to the adjacent 900 Shops Mall as well as Season Restaurant.

The Ritz-Carlton Chicago, a Four Seasons Hotel:
The Ritz-Carlton Chicago, located just across the street from the Four Seasons, offers a luxurious hotel experience with a more traditional approach. Guest rooms have been modified with a more contemporary scheme, however they still retain a more conservative (albeit indulgent) design. Guest rooms also benefit from fantastic views (perhaps more Lake oriented than the Four Seasons guest rooms) Similarities include the Four Seasons Bed, as well as all of the other amenities you will find at the Ritz-Carlton’s sister property. While the Four Seasons felt more understated (and perhaps even a bit more quiet & private), The Ritz-Carlton offers an expansive lobby with a traditional layout.
Guest Rooms Ending in 01-07 as well as 29-33 Feature spectacular Lake Views.
