As the beating heart of downtown, Arlo Chicago invites you to explore the city's celebrated skyline, cultural treasures, and the Magnificent Mile—all within easy reach.

There’s more to see than you’ll have time for—and that’s precisely the kind of pride we embrace.

Chicago, IL: Where Architectural Majesty Meets Cultural Legacy

Rising proudly along the southern shore of Lake Michigan, Chicago stands as a monument to American resilience, innovation, and design. From the ashes of the Great Fire of 1871, the city reimagined itself as the birthplace of the modern skyscraper, laying the foundation for what would become one of the world’s most iconic skylines. Historic landmarks such as the Wrigley Building and Tribune Tower coexist with striking modern marvels like the Aqua Tower, creating a living gallery of architectural evolution. Home to the influential Chicago School and the genius of Frank Lloyd Wright, the city’s built environment is a tribute to bold vision and craftsmanship.

But Chicago is more than its structures—it's a city alive with cultural richness and civic pride. Millennium Park, with its reflective Cloud Gate sculpture, invites both tourists and locals to engage with public art in the heart of downtown. Just steps away, the Art Institute of Chicago houses masterpieces spanning centuries, while the nearby Magnificent Mile pulses with luxury retail, world-class dining, and theatrical brilliance. From jazz clubs in historic basements to mural-covered alleyways in Pilsen, Chicago’s cultural tapestry is as dynamic as its skyline. It’s a city that honors its past while shaping the future—unapologetically vibrant, diverse, and unmistakably American.

Amazing check in and recommendations Ann checked me in and she was fantastic. I had a slight issue with my reservation that she fixed quickly and her recommendations for food were exciting! She was a great first impression to the Arlo experience!

Above and Beyond at Arlo Our trip at Arlo (with two teens!) was above and beyond. Anytime we needed something, the staff anticipated our concerns. My teen got the sweetest birthday message from the staff on the morning of his special day, too. (Thank you Brittney especially, your service and consideration made the stay exceptional!!!) We take one or two trips per year as a staycation in the city, and we’ll be here for the foreseeable future. Amazing location, clean and fluffy linens, tidy and modern spaces, perfect HVAC controls. Grab Stan’s donuts for breakfast, take a walk in Millenium Park for afternoon, eat at the hotel restaurant and people watch from the sidewalk tables. Awesome experience.
