Description:
The Raphael Hotel is surrounded by the towering glass structures of downtown Chicago, tucked away in a quiet corner of the historic Gold Coast. This 17-story hotel is one block from the John Hancock Center and the upscale shops and restaurants of Michigan Avenue. Just two blocks from Lake Michigan, the Raphael sits in the center of excitement, arts, museums and galleries of downtown Chicago. Different from the large hotels with their conventions and crowds, the Raphael is quiet and unobtrusive, quaint enough to offer Old World charm and European amenities. The Raphael features a small, high-ceilinged lobby with wood beams, a wrought-iron chandelier, large arched windows, lots of natural light, upholstered furniture, and tables topped with fresh flowers. Guests of the Raphael can access the cardiovascular fitness room, sauna and massage treatments at its companion hotel, the Tremont, two blocks away.
The Raphael’s spacious guest rooms feature classical décors and furnishings, and high-beamed ceilings. The rooms are equipped with data ports, voice mail, safes and other modern conveniences. For guests who prefer a smaller hotel in the middle of everything downtown Chicago offers, the Raphael is a fine choice for a Windy City vacation.
