Now through May 31, book two nights and get a third on us. That’s 24 more precious hours to shop, savor, explore, or simply unplug while enjoying Chicago’s most welcoming weather. But don’t hesitate, there’s limited availability for this special offer. Book below.
One Great City, Three Royal Hotels
No matter your style, we've got the recipe for a royal Chicago experience. A stay at Royal Sonesta Chicago Downtown ensures you won’t miss a thing. Set at the beating heart of the city where the Chicago River meets upscale Michigan Avenue, our freshly renovated hotel offers easy access to all the must-see items on your itinerary at the doorstep of the riverfront.
The spirit of old-time Chicago is alive and well at The Allegro Royal Sonesta Hotel Chicago Loop. This one-of-a-kind hotel pays tribute to the city’s rich history while boasting the modern amenities and décor. Take advantage of our prime location just steps away from acclaimed theater, opera, and the famous Chicago Symphony, as well as State Street shopping, the Art Institute of Chicago and Millennium Park.
For an urban retreat experience with surprisingly generous accommodations, look no further than Royal Sonesta Chicago River North. It’s the perfect jumping-off point for a stroll down the Magnificent Mile or a tour of the vibrant River North neighborhood. Not to be missed: the 17th floor indoor pool and outdoor sundeck for breathtaking views of a city in full bloom.
