The Hotel Monaco proved to be a good choice while looking for a luxury hotel near the Chicago theatre. At our trip through the USA we stayed at 10 different hotels, and the Chicago theatre was for sure one of the best! My husband was really happy with the wireless Internet connection available not only at our room but nearly everywhere at the hotel . While he stayed at the bar and enjoyed the good vine they offered, I used the gym and had a really relaxing night.

Next morning I learned that Coffee was free – and this is a great thing if you always need 3 or 4 cups in the morning like I do! We had a nice walk around, there is the Millennium Park and the Magnificent Mile nearby and after all, we ended up at the Navy Pier. Okay, there might be more romantic places to look at boats, but men are different *shrug* and my husband really enjoyed it. Before our evening event I received some treatments in the spa nearby and we really had a nice evening in the theatre, followed by a great meal an vine in the Monaco’s restaurant.

While checking out the next morning I was really pleased to see that our dog stayed with us for free. Only the room service was a little bit more expensive than expected, and I really wondered how we could waste so much money on such a few things! Next year we will have our convention here and I really look forward to this next visit and hope I’ll find enough time besides work to visit all the other nice places like City Hall, Chicago Symphony and the Shubert Theatre.

Maybe I´ll take the kids with us then – it would be great fort hem to spend more time with us, and they`re free! At least as long as they stay with us and don’t need extra beds. Anyway, this was a great experience, i wish we had found this nice Hotel earlier – we wasted so much time in really awful places all around Chicago, that’s a pity!
