Above Water Tower Place on the Magnificent Mile, The Ritz-Carlton, Chicago looks across the Gold Coast, Lake Michigan and the surrounding skyline. Rooms and suites use restrained contemporary interiors, with lake or city outlooks dependent on floor and orientation. Torali combines an Italian steakhouse, bar and seasonal rooftop terrace, while Café provides coffee and lighter food in the lobby. The wellness floor contains a spa, fitness centre and heated indoor lap pool beneath a glass roof. The Museum of Contemporary Art stands nearby, and Oak Street Beach, the lakefront path and shops along Michigan Avenue are all accessible on foot from this busy central address.
