Chicago, once referred to as ‘the pulse of America’ is full of so much culture, good food, unique attractions, and incredible city life it’s no wonder people choose to travel there to experience it all. Nestled right on the mighty Lake Michigan in Illinois, Chicago quickly earned its nickname ‘windy city’ due to the gusts of wind that blow off Lake Michigan through the city’s tall towers. Aside from the beautiful Lake Michigan, there are many reasons why one would choose to immerse themselves into the rich culture of Chicago, as opposed to other cities, for their vacation.

Home to some of the most famous architectural designs, incredible museums, large urban parks, incredible once in a lifetime restaurant and food options, Chicago truly is one of America’s best. The well-established city is also known for its incredibly vibrant music scene, specifically its array of jazz and blues music. Many of our great jazz and blues pioneers got their start in underground Chicago clubs, blasting their music into bullet mics. But in case that isn’t enough for you to consider booking your next trip here, Chicago is also known for its fantastically unique hotel options. With some of the wildest, most luxurious hotels, these are some of our favorite exotic hotel rooms in Chicago.

They are full of gorgeous thick velvet furniture, touches of brass accents, industrial lighting, dark wood floors, oversized artwork, and overall eclectic interior design. The showers are a large class enclosure open to the rest of the room, and the bathrooms are full of designer toiletries that you’ll want to sneak back into your carry-on bag when you leave.
