Chicago at its best
As a former Chicagoan, I appreciated the entire ambiance of the CAA. Architecturaly stunning. Historically interesting. An overall incredible Chicago vibe. Some of the staff (bartenders & waitstaff) seemed to lack experience but a minor complaint considering the incredible experience during our stay.

Will stay here again!
We stayed the day after Christmas overnight in a compact room with no view but the amenities in the room are great, the bathroom and bed were very comfortable and the hotel itself is beautifully unique and cozy. A lot of Bear's fans were staying here which made the atmosphere in the game room bar fun.

Amazing Chicago hotel
CAA was a great place to stay. We did a one night staycation and it was in a great location to feel like a tourist and enjoy chicagos sights and restaurants. The old school feel was great and was clean and modern at the same time. Easy access to Cindy’s was also a perk.

Front desk and Lobby bar employees were all heads down on their phones when we approached. Did not greet us for about 15 seconds while we stood at desk or bar. Worst I’ve ever seen.

Awesome location, beautiful inside, great activities as well. Though, I was not impressed with the cleanliness or attention to detail of the room. Our mini fridge had multiple opened drinks and bottles in it that were missed by the cleaning team. The rooms are also extremely hot and uncomfortable in the winter. If you’re going to have a central location in downtown close to everything with a little bit of history, I highly recommend. Otherwise I’d stay somewhere else.

This place was incredible. Location was amazing. Staff were professional and helpful. There's so much to do in the hotel, as well as within 1 mile of it, you'll have no chance to do it all in one week. The atmosphere in the hotel is luxurious without feeling luxurious. The restaurants served delicious food. It was just a wonderful experience all around. Beds and pillows were great too.
