Last Updated 40 mins agoChicago just became even more stunning than usual! A sleek, 101-story building is now overpowering the skyline of the Windy City.

This is the latest opening under Marriott’s impressive portfolio of 30 recognizable brands across the globe.
St. Regis and JW Marriott are the cream of the crop under Marriott’s umbrella. This is the most recent St. Regis opening, and it does not disappoint in any way!
Not much time has passed since its Grand Opening, so there are not many reviews available online. However, the few that have come through are consistent 5 stars across the board.
One recent guest noted it was “outstanding”, adding they provide “authentic butler service for every room,” and they were impressed with its “fantastic location” near Lake Michigan.

Those who packed their walking shoes may want to head to the Magnificent Mile. From Chicago’s famous deep-dish pizza to the most luxury retailers, this 13-block region has it all!
Forget The Pizza And Hot Dogs, Don’t Leave The Hotel!

Although, true locals swear that deep dish isn’t the way to go. Tourists will often go to Portillo’s for the hot dogs or have the ultra-tough choice between Giordano’s or Gino’s East.
St. Regis will soon have such an amazing selection of restaurants on site that travelers may not want to leave the hotel grounds!
Miru will be located on the 11th floor with incredible views of Chicago’s waterfront and Navy Pier.
The restaurant will offer carefully selected small plates with Japanese flair, sushi and sashimi, as well as savory steak and seafood for the main course.

That is if the check ever arrives! The dessert menu is created by the winner of School of Chocolate on Netflix.
Tre Dita is scheduled to open this Fall. It will be themed as a Tuscan steakhouse with an award-winning chef at the helm.
