Rooms & rate
What you're paying for
Rooms are compact but sharply designed in a mid-century vein, shaped by the building's triangular footprint. The rooftop pool and bar are seasonal highlights; pick a higher floor for the skyline outlook.
Why we say this
Insider secrets & local vibes
The triangular Art Deco tower, sharp mid-century rooms, and a small rooftop pool with skyline views make it the most stylish base in Wicker Park.
Not independently verified — estimated
You're a 15–20 minute train or car ride from the Loop and Mag Mile — great for nightlife, less so if your plans center downtown.
