Quick Verdict: LondonHouse Chicago vs The St. Regis Chicago

When LondonHouse Chicago wins: choose LondonHouse if you want historic architecture, a lively rooftop scene (the only tri-level rooftop in the city), river views, and immediate walking access to the Michigan Avenue Bridge, Magnificent Mile, and Riverwalk. It’s the pick for atmosphere and downtown convenience.

When The St. Regis Chicago wins: choose The St. Regis when you prioritize a contemporary five‑star stay with an on-site indoor pool, a larger spa program and extensive meeting/banquet facilities in a distinctive modern tower. It’s the better choice for full-service luxury amenities.

Dining & drinks: rooftop nightlife vs refined hotel outlets

LondonHouse’s dining centers around its tri‑level LH Rooftop plus a 21st‑floor restaurant and riverfront lobby bar.

  • LH Rooftop: tri‑level rooftop bar with indoor lounge, outdoor terrace and 23rd‑floor Cupola; open daily 11:00 AM–12:00 AM.
  • LH on 21 serves contemporary American lunch, dinner and weekend brunch; Bridges Lobby Bar offers afternoon tea and river views.

Pools & signature amenity

  • Indoor pool with published pool hours and guest access rules (pool access from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM per property notes).
