Three of the city’s four top hotels are in River North. Trump International Hotel & Tower won five-star ratings for its hotel and restaurant, and a four-star rating for its spa. Across Wabash Avenue, The Langham won its first five-star ratings, one for the hotel and one for its spa. A half-mile north, The Peninsula won a five-star rating for its hotel, a four-star rating for its restaurant, and a four-star rating for its spa.
Five-star hotels in Chicago…
Four-star hotels in Chicago…
Of the five four-star restaurants in Chicago this year, four are north of the Loop – Les Nomades at 222 East Ontario Street in River North, NoMI Kitchen at Park Hyatt on North Michigan Avenue, Shanghai Terrace at The Peninsula on East Superior Street, and Tru at 676 North St. Clair Street in Streeterville. There are more star rating winners this year, says Forbes, than ever before in the 58 years the company has been rating hotels, restaurants, and spas. Anonymous teams of inspectors evaluate properties against 800 standards. The guide used to be called Mobile Travel Guide.
