The Hotel Blake sits on Printers Row, in the cultural and financial heart of Chicago's Loop just a short walk to the Board of Trade, Stock Exchange, Art Institute, Sears Tower, State Street shopping, Soldier Field, and Millenium and Grant Parks. Recreational enthusiasts can hike seven blocks to Lake Michigan and its 20 mile path perfect for running, biking, walking and skating. The high end shopping of the Magnificent Mile awaits a mile from the Hyatt.
This being Chicago, guests will find dining options serving everything from steak to sushi to Starbucks. The hotel's nationally acclaimed Prairie, which is festooned with bouquets of dried wildflowers and grasses, dishes up Midwestern cuisine, such as Minnesota sturgeon, rack of lamb and Indiana duck breast. Everest, one of Chicago's premier French restaurants, is three blocks away on the 40th floor of a building that offers sweeping vistas of the city. This is a reservations only and jackets required place, but the four star chow is worth the fuss.
Back at the Blake, guests can work out at the hotel's fitness center or a nearby health club that also offers trainers, racquetball courts, pool, running track and massages. The Blake also provides comprehensive business services and meeting space for small functions and social events.
Guest rooms feature floor to ceiling windows, vaulted 12 foot ceilings and décor of contemporary black furniture and color palettes of earthy hues. They come complete with high speed Internet access, bathroom TVs, premium channels and daily newspapers.
The Hotel Blake's location is perfect for business and leisure travelers seeking prime locations close to everything synonymous with Chicago as well as amenities commonly associated with a nationally known company.
