Accommodations

Enjoy first-class luxury at Swissotel Chicago just steps away from the city’s greatest attractions. The four-diamond hotel’s triangular shape means all rooms have a panoramic view of the Chicago skyline, Lake Michigan and Navy Pier. The hotel sits above the Chicago River where you can view tour boats and kayaks, walk along the Riverwalk or head two blocks to shop The Magnificent Mile.  

The room block rate, offered from August 7-11, is $209 for a standard room plus applicable taxes and fees. The rate will be honored three days pre- and post-event, based on availability.

All reservations must be made by July 13, 2022 to receive the room block rate.
