theWit Chicago Officially OpensIf there is one hotel that Chicago has been waiting to open, it is going to be theWit, a Doubletree Hotel.  While I have always been a Marriott Fan (I work for Marriott Hotels after all!), I think that I might actually have to check out theWit whenever I go to Chicago next.  This hotel just opened a few weeks ago and to be honest, while the rate may seem high at $199.00 per night, it might actually be worth it.  This hotel is 27-floors and has 283 rooms in it.

The lightening bolt that graces the front is actually extremely cool looking and travelers who stay here will actually be only about 2 blocks from Michigan Avenue!  That means that the Art Institute of Chicago as well as the Ford Center and the Civic Opera House are all within walking distance.  The hotel could not be closer and it honestly looks pretty cool.

In the rooms and the suites, the guests will see the 42-inch flat screens, a lot of velvet chaise loungers and some of the quirkiest and funkiest artwork in the world. So check it out, I think it fits right in with Chicago!
