Housed in a landmark tower with stunning views and even butler-drawn baths, you'll want for nothing at the Chicago hotel voted the best in the US by TripAdvisor
Langham Chicago is the only hotel in a building designed by pioneering modern architect Mies van der Rohe
The hotel, which opened in 2013, was named the top luxury hotel in America based on TripAdvisor reviews
It features the only five-star spa in Chicago as well as plentiful dining options, including restaurant Travelle
Langham Club guests enjoy private check-in and all-day refreshments in a luxurious haven on the 12th floor
From the windows of my suite at the Chicago Langham I can see large sheets of ice just about starting to thaw in the Chicago River.
Freezing cold temperatures may have engulfed the city at the peak of winter, but my welcome at the Langham could not have been warmer.
And as I stepped into my suite and looked around at my surroundings for the next couple of nights, I knew the cold wouldn’t bother me one bit. After all, I'm in the hotel voted the best in the US by TripAdvisor users.
Never mind the domineering (and slightly gaudy) Trump hotel located a stone’s throw away, the Langham, which opened in 2013, is the only hotel in the world set in a skyscraper designed by legendary modern architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe - an absolute delight for the architecture geek in me.
It’s located on the lower floors of the IBM building, Mies van der Rohe’s final commission. The tower was declared an official landmark in 2008.
Chicago is widely considered the founding city of modern architecture and the IBM building, simple and iconic on the outside, is an example of 20th century building at its finest.
The interior is just as impressive - a beautiful and towering Travertine marble lobby welcomes guests arriving to check-in - but Langham Club guests (which I was) receive extra perks, including private arrival and departure services on the hotel's uppermost floor.
So fresh off a flight from New York, I was ushered up to the 12th floor, where I was quickly checked-in by one of the hotel's many butlers and offered breakfast in the lavish Club Lounge.
A latte and plentiful (not to mention delicious) pastries was exactly what I needed after my very early morning flight after a night shift and a traffic-filled journey from the airport.
The club lounge, as well as offering stunning panoramic views over the city, serves a breakfast buffet, afternoon tea, refreshments throughout the day and in the evening, cocktails and canapés.
Even with the plentiful snacks and beverages on display and a self-serve environment, the hotel's butlers are on hand to cater to every request.
The lounge also features a nook known as the Writer’s Corner - with a reading library and computer workstations - as well as a somewhat distracting view over the city.
I could have easily spent hours in the lounge, but I headed to my room to unpack. But actually, 'room' is an understatement to describe my accommodation. I stayed in the Chicago River View suite - and in a word, it was spectacular.
A mix of classic and contemporary style, the one-bedroom suite I stayed in suited me to a tee - the fact that the style is billed as 'British' may have had something to do with it!
It reflected the simplicity of the building itself, with hardwood floors and accent rugs, as well as bespoke furnishings in a subtle color palette of creams, silvers and purples for added elegance.
In the living room, incredibly comfortable armchairs and a sofa sit opposite a 55-inch LCD television. There’s also a working desk and a separate seating area with a dining table, and a powder room.
The bedroom features a king-sized bed with plentiful pillows and cushions as well as a gorgeous vanity table and mirror (with excellent lighting!), a walk-in dressing parlor and another 55-inch television fixed to the wall.
That's not to mention the floor-to-ceiling windows in both rooms that boast a majestic view over the Chicago River, with Lake Michigan visible on the horizon.
Meanwhile, the bathroom was an absolute dream. A marvel of marble, it featured an oversized (and I mean oversized) soaking tub and separate glass rain shower - and two sinks with an absolutely massive mirror.
