Four Seasons Hotel Chicago

Perkins & Will / Kohn Pedersen Fox tower opened March 1989 inside the 900 North Michigan building on the Magnificent Mile — 345 keys (160 rooms, 185 suites) with a five-firm interior layering: Hirsch Bedner on rooms, Pierre-Yves Rochon on the eighth-floor ballroom, BraytonHughes on the lobby and Allium, Rottet Studios on the spa and Adorn. The 44-foot pool with waterfall edge — yes, that pool from Home Alone 2 — sits in the 8,000 sq ft spa above Lake Michigan.

A Four Seasons on the upper floors of a Michigan Avenue tower with views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline. Positioned above the Magnificent Mile, it holds a long-established reputation as Chicago's most consistently excellent luxury city hotel.
