Life at the top is great!
My family and I recently stayed at the penthouse over Christmas from 12/23/12-12/26/12. I must say that this place exceeded our expectations. When you first walk into the penthouse you are greeted with spectacular views of the City of Chicago and Lake Michigan. I am not sure what is my favorite- the views in the morning or the night! The penthouse is decorated very nicely and has all the amenities you would ever need. The fireplace was awesome, and very nice to cuddle up to on the cold Chicago nights we had. We cooked Christmas dinner at the penthouse and found that the kitchen had everything one would ever need, right down to the spices! The rooms were very nice also. Our only complaint is that the water pressure in the showers is very weak. Showers took a little longer then we are used to, but maybe this is a city thing. Also, the bed in the master bedroom was hard as a rock. We are used to soft beds, so I guess it would depend on your preference. The bathrooms have soap, body wash, shampoo, conditioner, q-tips, hair dryers...etc
Oh, this penthouse is in a great location. It is within walking distance to all the city attractions. The Jewel food store on the lower level was most helpful for our grocery needs. Also, there are several major restaurants just footsteps from the Grand Plaza entrance.
Overall my family and I had an excellent stay! You will not be disappointed if you stay here.
