“Hip hotel with boutique-appeal and sophisticated rooms overlooking the skyscrapers of down-town Chicago. Rooms are sleek and monochrome with splashes of colour and kitted out in gadgetry galore. The Berkshire Room bar is a trendy spot for young Chicagoans to unwind with a craft cocktail. ”

Hotel review

This stylish boutique hotel in a restored 1920s building has a great location in downtown Chicago. Just a couple of blocks away from the Magnificent Mile, a shoppers paradise, and within walking distance to the River North in Central Chicago. Acme has a young, hip vibe and music is a central theme in the hotel with top-selling LPs from the last decades included in its grand design and rooms equipped with high-tech audio systems, some suites even have an ESP guitar. If your rooms does not have one, you can always check one out for free from the front desk. Your morning coffee will be delivered to your room at the time of your liking, the Morning Joe is a signature. In the basement you can work out in the in-house gym or alternatively relax in the sauna or hot tub. Incorporated into the lobby of the hotel is the West Town Bakery, which also discreetly delivers your delicious breakfast to your door, you can even leave the “Knock and Drop” service a message on your door. The hotel's Bodega bar, as well as the Berkshire Room, are great place to enjoy cocktails and nibbles. With downtown Chicago on your doorstep, it's a great launch pad for exploring the Windy City.
