The Talbott Hotel, on an elegant tree-lined street in the heart of Chicago's prestigious Gold Coast, provides guests with that intimate, European-style boutique experience. What's more, guests are only a few blocks from the upscale shopping and entertainment of the Magnificent Mile; the 100-story John Hancock Building; the shops, nightclubs and eateries of the Navy Pier, the city's top tourist attraction; and Lake Michigan's abundant running, walking, bicycling or skating opportunities. In addition, the River North Gallery and Loop business districts are only a mile away.
Built in 1927, the recently renovated hotel offers a Victorian sitting room with two fireplaces, which form the lobby's focal point for guests from throughout the world. The hotel is home to Basil's, an upscale meeting place for people who want to relax over drinks and international cuisine. The Talbott also offers complimentary membership to a full-service health club just three blocks away, where guests will find an Olympic-sized pool, full-sized basketball court, indoor track and strength-training machines.
The Talbott's 149 guestrooms and suites feature floral print bedspreads, English-country paintings, dark-wood entertainment armoires, substantial closet space, complimentary high-speed Internet access, bathrobes and multiple phones. Suites have Bulgari bathroom amenities.
Business and mature travelers appreciate the Talbott Hotel's refined atmosphere in which they can relax with newspapers in the sitting area, cognac in the bar and winter warmth in the dual fireplaces. In chilly months, complimentary coffee, tea and brownies are available in the lobby.
