Which hotel in chicago is better to stay at?
My husband and I are going to Chicago for a weekend in May, we have narrowed down five hotels on the tripadvisor.com website. Which one is best?
1)courtyard (marriot) downtown (is this hotel non-smoking?)
2)The Drake
3)Comfort Inn and Suites downtown
4)Radisson hotel
5)Swissotel
If you stayed at any of these before, please give me your input. Thanks.

The Drake is good. A little snooty if that bothers you. The Swisshotel is great as well.
Although both are well located, the Drake has a better location just around the corner from the Mag Mile. Whereas the Swisshotel has better views of the lake and easier access to the Loop part of the city for State ST shopping, Millenium Park, Navy Pier, Michigan Ave shopping, and Theater. The Drake is almost a mile north of the Swisshotel. Both are close to the upscale restaurants of the Rush and Division area such as Tavern on Rush and Gibsons.
I would also recomend checking out www.metromix.com for any entertainment needs you have here. From shopping, to bars, to theather, and restaurantes, it’s a Chicagoians best friend.
