Curator’s statement
Four Seasons Chicago has always stood out to me as a property that blends the city’s timeless elegance with warm, genuine service. It’s a hotel that feels equally right for a family getaway, a couple’s weekend, or a business trip, which is rare to find. The location, the design, and the views of Lake Michigan make it one of Chicago’s best addresses.

During my stay, what struck me most was how seamlessly the hotel has modernized its look without losing its classic soul. The renovated rooms are spacious, light-filled, and if you book a higher floor with lake views, the skyline and water scenes are unbeatable.
Service was impeccable at every turn. The concierge team didn’t just give suggestions—they curated experiences, whether it was last-minute dining reservations or guidance on cultural spots that aren’t easy to find online. Dining at Adorn was another highlight; breakfast felt both relaxed and indulgent, with fresh options and attentive staff that made the start of each day special.
Beyond the room and dining, the spa and large indoor pool made the hotel feel like a retreat in the heart of the city. It’s rare to find this kind of wellness offering in a downtown Chicago property, and it elevates the overall stay.
