You’re in The Loop when you stay at theWit.
Well situated at State and Lake Streets, the hotel is close to Macy’s shopping, Walnut Room tree and holiday windows, Goodman Theatre’s “A Christmas Carol,” Millennial Park’s Caroling at Cloud Gate and ice skating rinks, the Chriskindle Market, a visit to the Art Institute of Chicago’s holiday-decorated Thorne Miniature Rooms and a short bus ride to the Auditorium theatre to see Joffrey Ballet’s “The Nutcracker.”
The hotel also has arrangements with the Art Institute for the Andy Warhol exhibit and the Chicago Theatre across Lake Street for Cirque du Soleil’s “Twas the Night Before”
Exploring the nearby holiday events will help burn off the treats you will want to try after seeing Chef Toni’s gingerbread village in the lobby that has edible characters and sweets available for purchase online at A Bit of theWit.
In between shopping and shows , stop at the hotel’s State and Lake Chicago Tavern, Executive Chef Nathan Sears’s gastropub with artisanal American cuisine.
The place to hang out here is the ROOF. A Chicago Loop theatre ticket will get you a complimentary drink with the purchase of a drink. But the ROOF is also among the top 10 roof-top bars in the country. It features a DJ on weekends plus champagne on Sundays and Thursdays.
The other place to de-stress from shopping and holiday dashing is the Spa @ the Wit or the fitness center which has floor to ceiling views of the city.
A Four Diamond hotel with a sleek, contemporary vibe in the Doubletree by Hilton group, theWit is at 201 N State St, Chicago, IL 60601.
