The Knickerbocker, located in downtown Chicago, is a historic hotel that actually delivers.  Classic style and gracious service have been the trademark of this elegant hotel since 1927.  This was apparent when, after checking-in and finding our room, we were startled by a knock on the door from management, asking us if we wanted to upgrade to a suite.  My husband and I travel often, and that's the first/only time that has happened.  I also think, relative to other historic hotels in Chicago, the Knickerbocker has been able to keep rooms up-to-date while paying homage to its rich history.

The Knicerkbocker is located at the gateway to Chicago's "Magnificent Mile" - it's one block from Water Tower Place, steps from Rush Street's legendary dining and nightlife and within walking distance of most major attractions, the hotel offers the personalized service and attention not found in most other larger hotels.

The hotel features The Martini Bar and live jazz piano creating the perfect atmosphere for a business or personal conversation.  Nix restaurant offers a bistro setting and features continental cuisine for breakfast, lunch, and dinner as well as 24 hour in-room dining.

For individuals that love to stay at historic hotels in urban settings, I would highly recommend the Knickerbocker.
