Majestic Hotel

Billed as having Dickensian charm and an Old English ambiance, this hotel with 52 rooms, is located on a charming, residential street in the heart of the Lakeview area. It offers a quiet respite from the ultra-bustling Loop and Michigan Avenue hotels and gives you the proper feel of what it is like to live in Chicago. Each room features numerous modern conveniences and country comforts like four-poster beds and tapestry furnishings. For the true anglophile or homesick Brit, afternoon tea is served in the lobby. The McCormick Place Convention Center is a mere four miles (six kilometers) north, a quick taxi drive away.
