Hotel Baker - A Historic 1928 Riverside Landmark with Rainbow Room and Rose Gardens
Located in downtown Saint Charles hotel district, the 2-star Hotel Baker features 53 uniquely appointed rooms with marble-accented baths and individual climate controls. The property's iconic Rainbow Room has hosted entertainers like Tommy Dorsey, Louis Armstrong, and Lawrence Welk, while the newly refurbished Waterfront Room showcases imported marble floors and panoramic Fox River views. Hotel Baker's formal rose garden provides an outdoor retreat illuminated by thousands of golden lights. Notable past guests include President John F. Kennedy, Gerald Ford, and various Illinois governors. The property sits 31 mile from Chicago O'Hare International Airport and offers easy access to local attractions like the historic Arcada Theater and Norris Cultural Center. The venue includes versatile meeting spaces suitable for both business gatherings and social events.
Pros
Historically significant property listed on the National Register of Historic Places
Original 1928 illuminated dance floor with 2620 colored lights
Riverside location with formal English rose garden
Close proximity to downtown shopping and entertainment venues
Cons
31 mile distance from Chicago O'Hare International Airport
Limited on-site dining options
“Hotel Baker's position on the Fox River puts it within easy walking distance of Saint Charles's dining and nightlife. I noted that some found the rules about outside food unusually strict. While the building carries a certain historic charm, I understand that noise from the bar and elevators can be an issue for some guests.”
