HOTEL DESCRIPTION <b>Travel Advisory:</b> The Worker's Union of Chicago has been conducting a strike against the Congress Plaza Hotel since June 2003. Guests may encounter picketers when entering the hotel. The Congress Plaza Hotel will make every attempt to maintain guest satisfaction through the duration of the strike.
The Congress Plaza is a traditional hotel located on South Michigan Avenue opposite Grant Park. The Congress Plaza's convenient downtown location commands a spectacular view of Grant Park and Buckingham Fountain. It also provides easy access to the Art Institute of Chicago, Symphony Center, Soldier Field, Shedd Aquarium, Art Institute and the Sears Tower - all within walking distance. Chicago's business districts, shopping and restaurants, as well as downtown theaters and universities are also just minutes away. The Congress Plaza features a main lobby with an award-winning dome ceiling and stone statues in an Art Deco ambiance. Originally designed and built in 1893 to accommodate visitors to the Columbian World's Exposition, the guest rooms and suites of the Congress Plaza are truly spacious by today's standards. The tastefully decorated, well appointed guest rooms are appointed with modern conveniences and most offer city or lake views. Guests looking for easy access to major downtown attractions will find the Congress Plaza convenient. The train stops nearby and offers easy access to other parts of downtown, as well as both airports. The Congress Plaza offers on-site dining and is only minutes to fine dining, shopping, and entertainment venues.
