Overview

Thompson Chicago is a sophisticated property with eclectic decor with urban and British inspiration. Guests will find many rich textures like leather and velvet in deep jewel tones scattered with mid-century modern lines and warm American hardwoods. This unique boutique hotel is ideally located on the edge of Michigan Avenue. Plus, Lake Michigan is just moments from the property. Also nearby is the Oak Street Beach, the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art, and Wrigley Field.

The luxury studios offer views of the Magnificent Mile and the downtown Chicago cityscape with Lake Michigan glittering in the distance. Rooms come outfitted with plush king-sized beds or cozy double beds, all of them made up with 400 thread count Sferra sheets. The modern baths contain cream-colored tiles and rain showers. Plus, there is a gourmet mini-bar and in-room safe. Those seeking extra space will want to book one of the larger suites including the Junior Suite, Skyline Loft Suite, Thompson Suite, or the Penthouse. The Penthouse is 655 square feet spread across two levels. Some of the suites include private terraces.

Dining options include Nico Osteria, an Italian seafood restaurant that serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner each day. Guests can choose from house-made pasta, fresh seafood, and season rustic fare. The menu changes each day to reflect the catches of local fisherman. There is also a wine bar and cocktail lounge on the property called Salone Nico. The wine list is extensive, featuring bottles from Greece and Italy, and there are afternoon aperitifs, and handcrafted cocktails on offer as well.
