Virgin rating

The hotel

Boasting a sophisticated new lobby lounge area, The Allegro Royal Sonesta promises a first-class welcome from the moment you arrive with a wealth of 'have to see' attractions right on the shiny front porch. Style and class are everything in Chicago and the Allegro is blessed with bucket loads of both including more than 400 guest rooms and suites all of which promise a stylish and comfortable approach to city living. With complimentary social hour and hot drinks both presented in the lobby lounge, you'll discover numerous excuses to get social and thanks to the hotel's award-winning 312 Chicago restaurant and bar, there's more than a hint of Italian finery to compliment all occasions. If you've overindulged the night before then the hotel's fitness room or in-spa massage service* can help you relax and revive, with in-room yoga mats and yoga TV providing more stretching potential pre or post sightseeing tour. As the Allegro is based right next to one of Chicago's most prestigious theatres, the Cadillac Palace, red carpet treatment starts from the moment you arrive with numerous other landmarks, shops and entertainment venues all within walking distance.

Came to Chicago for the first time and wanted to stay downtown. It’s a beautiful hotel with great Gatsby vibe. Great customer service! Hetal from the front desk is an absolute sweetheart - she’s very helpful and gave us great restaurant recommendations!

Awien was the nicest and made check in extremely efficient and easy! I can’t say enough good things about her! She made our experience truly the best hotel experience we’ve ever had! The hotel staff at the front door was also very kind about holding onto our luggage during check in.
