Pros

Historic 1927 Williamsburg architectural style

Multiple dining options within 0.3 miles, including Prairie Moon, Found, and Giordano's

Technology support staff and helpdesk available

Terrace and garden areas for outdoor relaxation

Cons

18.5 miles distance from Chicago O'Hare International Airport

Limited on-site dining options with just one restaurant

“The approach sets a tone of established elegance-picturebook homes give way to this property near Northwestern University. Inside, the feel is more of a private club than a hotel, where the staff provides uniquely attentive service. I think the commitment to local sourcing and neighborhood engagement makes it a real Evanston experience.”
