The restaurant showcases steaks prepared over a wood-burning stove and seafood selections. W Café's intimate alcoves are furnished with sofas and coffee tables. The café serves espressos and light fare during morning hours. The art deco living room becomes the Living Room Bar from late afternoon to late evening. The bar serves spirits and cocktails. The hotel offers a business center and 12,000 square feet of function space. A 24-hour, complimentary fitness center contains cardiovascular and weight-training machines, and free weights.

The 22-story W Chicago City Center offers 369 contemporary guestrooms equipped with high-speed wired Internet access for a fee, MP3 adaptors, CD and DVD players, and 32-inch plasma flat-screen televisions. Beds are dressed with pillowtop mattresses, custom duvets and down comforters. Desks pair with purple-velvet chairs. Bathrooms contain bathrobes, lighted magnifying mirrors and marble vanities.

Expert Tip.

The hotel's Living Room is a place of "cathedral-like dimensions and cabaret-like distractions." Fiber-optic carpets, candlelit ambience, DJ-hosted music, screen-projected artworks, and complimentary treats such as non-alcoholic pomegranate mojitos conspire to create this unique setting.
