Located in the Theater District, the Palmer House Hilton is a tribute to Old World opulence and artistry. Decorated in the Beaux Arts style – a rich combination of classical Greek and Roman architecture with Renaissance ideas – the Palmer House will enchant you as soon as you enter the lobby. The gilded two-story lobby’s pièce de resistance? An Byzantine-style ceiling mural showing scenes from Greek mythology. Located in the center of the Loop, the hotel puts you near the fabulous shops of Chicago’s famous Magnificent Mile, as well as Windy City landmarks such as the Art Institute and Millennium Park. The hotel’s Big Downtown restaurant and bar is a great place to fuel up for your excursions; choose from classic American favorites ranging from steak to hamburgers to salads. The Palmer House’s guest rooms are decorated with dark wood antique-style furnishings and soothing cream-colored wall treatments. Duvets and curtains come in complimentary shades of evergreen and cherry, with gold accents. Upgrade to an executive room for beautiful French Empire styling, with an ornate wooden headboard, a beautiful scrollwork pattern on the bedspread, and soft beige and grey tones throughout the space.
