The restaurant on st Patrick’s day had zero Guinness no name brand spirits and the young man who was the waiter was amazing despite having to find solutions. National brands are great fan favorites not sure cucumber bark craft beer is what people come to Chicago for. Lastly asked for room to be serviced and didn’t happen I know it was busy but at least they could have let us know some how not a big fan of $700 for 2 nights without having some amenities

Aloft in Chi-Town

Great hotel in great location on N Clark St in Chicago. There was a restaurant in the hotel but there were great places to eat nearby as well. Small refrigerator was present. Room had great decor. Gym had free weights and a machine as well as treadmills, bicycle machine, ellipticals. Easy to access the 'EL'
