Park Hyatt Chicago, a Michigan Avenue hotel, occupies a uniquely quiet, tree-lined nook along the gardens of the Historic Water Tower, one of the few buildings to survive the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. Nestled a few steps back from the Magnificent Mile, a strip of more than 450 luxury retailers, the hotel places you at the nexus of shopping, arts, and culture. Inside, low-lit lounges feature stately accents of dark wood and leather, while guest rooms exude peace with a neutral gradient of beiges. For inventive, globally inspired cuisine, visit NoMI—a portmanteau of North and Michigan, a nod to the hotel’s distinctive street address.
