Why Buy

There’s truly nothing like the Chicago Athletic Association—where history, charm, and the city’s vibrant energy come together. From the moment your guests arrive, they’ll feel immersed in the spirit of Chicago. Together, we’ll ensure your event is not only seamless but also an experience to remember.

Originally built in 1893 for the World’s Fair, our landmark building was once home to an elite athletic and social club. Today, it has been reimagined into a boutique hotel, offering 240 guest rooms and over 17,000 square feet of unique meeting and event space—some with stunning views of Millennium Park and Lake Michigan.

Your attendees will love the variety of gathering spaces, from the warmth of the Drawing Room to the lively atmosphere of Game Room and Topgolf Swing Suites. Dining options abound, including the award-winning Cherry Circle Room and our year-round rooftop destination, Cindy’s, offering seasonal New American cuisine with breathtaking skyline views. On the ground floor, Fairgrounds Coffee & Tea and Shake Shack add to the mix—making us the only hotel in the world where Shake Shack is available through in-room dining!

With everything under one roof, your group won’t need to go far—unless they want to explore the best of Chicago, just steps away.
