Chicago Athletic Association

A historic 1890s monument transformed into an incomparable Chicago boutique hotel with commanding views across Millennium and Maggie Daley Parks.

Located on Chicago’s Cultural Mile, in the heart of the central business district, the Chicago Athletic Association hotel seamlessly blends its storied legacy as one of the nation’s most revered social clubs with modern day sophistication. Some of Chicago’s best outdoor spaces, such as Millennium Park and Maggie Daley Park are right outside their front door.

Inside this 1890s monument, you'll find plenty of room to spread out with 240 guest rooms & suites, 7 unique event spaces, and 7 award-winning bars and restaurants. From Cindy's year-round rooftop restaurant and bar to fries and burgers in Shake Shack; from billiards and beers in the Game Room to lounging in the Drawing Room; from rare spirits tastings in Milk Room to grab-and-go treats in Fairgrounds Coffee & Tea; our lauded food & beverage experience awaits.

The Chicago Athletic Association hotel, part of the Unbound Collection by Hyatt, offers 17,000 square feet of iconic spaces that effortlessly meld past with present. Open to the public for the first time since 1893, meeting, event, and wedding rooms feature original stained-glass windows, mantels with extraordinary bas-relief woodcarvings, restored marble staircases, and millwork of stunning character and detail. At every corner, restorers and designers married 19th century glamour with contemporary sophistication in an elegant playground for some of Chicago’s finest rooms and event experiences.
