Great place for business travelers
The location of the Courtyard Marriot/Magnificent Mile let's the business traveler get quickly to downtown by cab (or on foot for the fitness/environmentally conscious). It's proximity to Magnificent Mile gives you plenty of shopping choices...clothing at Gap, Hugo Boss, Nordstroms, Niketown, etc. And don't worry about forgetting necessities like your iPod or DVD player..the Apple Store and Virgin Records is a quick walk, too. As far as the hotel is concerned, the rooms are impeccable, room service is provided by Viand...a restaruant in the hotel and the staff is EXCEEDINGLY professional. This feels more like a JW than it does a Marriott. Just be careful of peak times and conferences...it can be really pricy at those times. I stayed for a month there and I honestly can't wait to go back.
