The term boutique hotel may conjure up images of quaint, country inns, but this 19-story, 483-room hotel is far from kitschy and rural. In fact, it is the epitome of urban luxury and style. The historic 1894 building is situated in the Theater District has Art Deco rooms that look straight out of a postmodern painting. The rooms are suited to business travelers, and feature such amenities as... more

THE LOOP . For travelers who prefer a hotel with character, Allegro is the perfect choice. Constructed in 1926, the hotel embraces Art Deco roots without sacrificing modern taste and convenience: public areas are eclectic, and high-speed wireless Internet service is available throughout.

The Cadillac Palace Theater is an appropriate neighbor for this music-themed hotel: witness the clefs on the shower curtains, a music room off the lobby, and the High Society -inspired watercolor mural by the lobby stairs at the entrance. While the standard rooms -- lusciously decorated with chocolate browns and grapefruit pinks -- are charming, they're outshined by premium rooms, which have... more

Four Seasons employees are renowned for their exemplary service. Pull back the sheets, whose quality and softness has been compared to those on which the Pope lays his hoary head, to reveal a bed so sumptuous and sought after that the Four Seasons has made it available for purchase.

The Bottom Line: Combine a vintage art deco hotel with Cheryl Rowley's hip designs, add complimentary Tootsie Rolls and you've got the Hotel Allegro. Guest Rooms and Rates: From $99.

A sizeable and posh hotel may seem like an unlikely place to register on a Chicagoan’s radar. The Hotel Allegro is, expectedly, a tourist haven, with its Magnificent Mile proximity, classy decor, and plentiful amenities. If you’re smart, you’ll take a cue from out-of-towners in this case. The hotel offers a variety of specials and packages that can turn an L ride to the Loop into a romantic... more

Originally built in the 1920s, this modern restored hotel includes elements from its past, including much brass and woodwork.

Owned by the same company as the Hotel Monaco and the Hotel Burnham (both listed), the Allegro is my top pick in the Loop for families in search of a fun vibe. Although its published rates are about the same as those of its sister properties, the Allegro is far larger than the Monaco or the Burnham and consequently is more likely to offer special rates to fill space (especially on weekends and... more

I stayed at the Allegro for two nights in early September. I've stayed at the Monaco and the Burnham--other Kimpton properties--and this is probably the shabbiest of the three (despite the recent renovation). It's an old building so the rooms are small.

I've stayed here twice on business, and I would say it's typical of the converted "boutique" hotels you'll find in other big cities. The first time I stayed in a weirdly pink room with a run-down bathroom. The more recent time my room was smaller, but chic and looked brand new. The staff is helpful and efficient, the location (in the theater district) is good, and all in all, this is a good value.

For a dowtown hotel, the prices are reasonalbe. The location is great too - close to shopping, theatre and restaurants. Although the rooms are very small, the charming decor makes up for the size. The style is very hip and funky and the staff is friendly and attentive. Great hotel for the value.

I stayed at the Hotel Allegro for Valentine's Day weekend 2004. Although it is an older building, they have done a great job converting it into a fun and funky boutique hotel. There are still older fixtures in the bathrooms from the 1940's but I considered it very quaint.

This is a boutique hotel in Chicago's Loop (business and theatre district). It's a relative of SF's Hotal Triton and Hotel Monaco. It is a lovely boutique change of pace for a visit to Chitown.

My husband and I spent this last Friday at the Allegro and loved it! I met him after work for a night out without the kids (5 of them). The hotel was beautiful and the staff was wonderful. They did not make my husband the least bit uncomfortable for being dressed in his (blue collar) work clothes. The room was a bit small, but the down comforter more than made up for that! We had a room on... more

Hotel Allegro is a renovation of a building that also includes the Cadillac Palace Theatre and the 312 Chicago Restaurant. . We didn't think the renovation was as successful as one of the other Kimpton hotels in Chicago -- The Hotel Burnham.
