Penthouse at Grand Plaza was perfect and the view was amazing!! Having a grocery store and a fitness center in the building was so convenient. And the train entrance is just a few steps away. Great food choices within a short walk. Walked to the Riverboat tour and the mag Mile.The owners promptly responded to my questions. I would 100% recommend.

Booked this property for a long weekend stay in Chicago. Walking in to the unit, we were blown away at how gorgeous the property was. The views are absolutely breathtaking. We though the view during the day was beautiful - but then seeing it at night...just absolutely stunning. Seeing the moon reflected off the water was a sight we will always remember. Loved waking up in the morning while it was still dark out, turning on the fireplace, and watching the sun rise. Would absolutely stay here again, highly recommend, 10/10.
