Arlo Chicago - A high-ceiling boutique hotel in Chicago Loop with smart TVs, Frette linens, and city views

Located in Chicago Loop among iconic architecture, this 4-star Chicago hotel stands near cultural landmarks and dining destinations. Each high-ceiling room features 300-count Frette linens, a Nespresso machine, and a 55-inch Smart television. Private bathrooms offer exclusive Frette robes and luxury bath products. The Arlo Chicago accommodates guests with multiple room types including Elite King, Elite Double Queen, Vista King, and Millennium King rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows. On-site amenities include a fitness center, 24-hour front desk, and concierge services. The property sits 0.5 miles from The Chicago Theatre and Chicago Cultural Center, 0.5 miles from Cloud Gate, and 0.5 miles from The Art Institute of Chicago. Midway International Airport is 9.5 miles from the hotel.

Pros

Multiple dining options within 0.5 miles, including Noodles & Company, Broken English Taco Pub, and Elephant & Castle

Floor-to-ceiling windows in Millennium King rooms provide city views

Complimentary wireless internet access throughout the property

Mobility accessible rooms available

Cons

9.5 miles distance to Midway International Airport

Willis Tower and The Field Museum require longer walks at 1 mile and 1 mile respectively

“The hotel's walkable location near Millennium Park and trendy urban design are definite advantages; the on-site steakhouse adds to the appeal. However, reports of inconsistent service and mandatory fees that restrict dining options give me pause. This property seems best suited for travelers who prioritize location and style over flawless service.”
