We had the pleasure of staying at the Aloft Chicago Mag Mile last weekend. This was not our first time at an Aloft, infact it was not our first time at the Aloft Chicago Mag Mile either! We stayed here with the kids a couple of months ago and enjoyed it so much! For starters, I have always loved the modern and trendy feel you get when you walk into an Aloft. The Aloft Chicago Mag Mile is extra special though! Dusko and I met in the city of Chicago. He lived in the South Loop and I lived in Lakeview, so the Mag Mile was a central point and an area we frequented. I know a lot of people that live in the city avoid it but we have always been drawn to it. So the Location of the Aloft Chicago Mag Mile is AMAZING! It is 2 blocks east of Michigan Avenue, so you basically walk out and you are there! Not to mention the 2 short city blocks are filled with good smelling chicago things such as Garretts Popcorn!!! If you aren’t from Chicago do yourselves a favor and grab a bag of the “Garretts Mix.” It’s the most wonderful blend of cheese popcorn and caramel. Infact, it actually used to be called…..the “Chicago Mix.”
The staff at the hotel was top notch, the manager Chris welcomed us with this wonderful basket of snacks and spirits:). And can we talk about how festive and cute the hotel tree is?!?!?!
One of the most important parts of staying at any hotel is the beds! And I must say, these are comfy:).
Breakfast at the Aloft didn’t disappoint either. They offer, sweet, savory, and vegetarian items. My favorite was The Ranchero.
See what I mean about the modern and trendy feel? Yes, I won in our game of pool!!!
Did I mention there is complimentary coffee every morning? Because that is also super important when traveling.
The last time we stayed here we also utilized the hotel pool, which is AWESOME!! Below are a few pics of that trip because the Aloft Chicago Mag Mile is such a great place for families too!
XOXO,
