Palmer house hotel by Hilton

The Palmer house is the classiest hotel I've stayed in. Not the most expensive or nicest but the most classic.  rebuilt in 1875 after the great Chicago fire, this hotel has over 1600 rooms and is famed for its illustrious celebrity history including Johnny blue eyes and the rat pack. It was cool. Almost as impressive as the grand lobb, was the hotel gym.   I had me a glass of scotch in the lobby to be sophisticated and rich ($17 for a  double scotch, mccallan 12 years, not including 10% tax and tip)

The last minute and low season room rate is only 120 - 150, but prime time starts around 400-500 plus 16% TAT. Protip: book it last minute to get a cool deal on a nice hotel. Or just go in for the lobby bar and enjoy. our group rate was 100/night, ridiculous cheap.
