Breathtaking Downtown Penthouse B – Sleeps 11

Breathtaking Downtown Penthouse B – Sleeps 11 Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Breathtaking Downtown Penthouse B – Sleeps 11 honestly feels like stepping into someone’s incredibly well-appointed private residence rather than a typical hotel. This four-star property sits right in the heart of Chicago’s Gold Coast area, and you know what — the name isn’t just marketing fluff. The penthouse actually delivers on that “breathtaking” promise with floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the city skyline beautifully. The sophisticated design and premium finishes throughout create an atmosphere of refined elegance that appeals to discerning travelers seeking something beyond standard accommodations.

The Space

The main room flows seamlessly into the living area, and I mean seamlessly — there’s this open-concept design that makes the whole place feel even more spacious than it already is. With sleeping arrangements for eleven people, you’d expect things to feel cramped, but the layout is surprisingly thoughtful. The kitchen is fully equipped (which honestly saved me a fortune on takeout), and there’s enough seating areas that everyone in your group can spread out without stepping on each other’s toes. The thoughtful arrangement of furniture and functional spaces demonstrates careful planning for group stays.

Location & Neighborhood

Being on North Sedgwick Street puts you right where you want to be — I could walk to Lincoln Park Zoo in about fifteen minutes, and the lakefront is practically at your doorstep. What I really appreciated was how quiet it stays despite being so central. The Gold Coast has this perfect balance where you’re close to everything but not drowning in tourist chaos. Parking can be a bit tricky in this area, but the building has options, which is honestly a relief in downtown Chicago. The neighborhood offers excellent access to dining, shopping, and cultural attractions.

What Makes It Special

The penthouse setup means you get these incredible views — especially at sunset when the light hits the buildings just right. I spent way too much time just standing by those windows with my coffee in the morning. The space feels more like a high-end apartment than a hotel room, which works perfectly if you’re traveling with a larger group or planning an extended stay. The furnishings are modern without being cold, and there’s actually personality in the decor choices. This distinctive character sets it apart from conventional hotel experiences.

Why Guests Love It

Couples particularly seem drawn to this place, and I get it — there’s something romantic about having a whole penthouse to yourselves in one of Chicago’s most desirable neighborhoods. The 8.5 rating makes perfect sense when you factor in the location, the space, and honestly, just the overall experience of staying somewhere that feels this special. Recent guests consistently mention the location as a standout feature, and after spending time here, I’d have to agree. You’re getting that downtown Chicago experience without the typical downtown hotel feel, if that makes sense. The combination of premium amenities and authentic neighborhood charm creates memorable stays for all types of travelers.

• Niha from United States (8/10)

  The location was perfect because it wasn't too far away from everything downtown, and it was still quiet which was nice! The place was the perfect size for a group of 11, and everything was updated and clean. Our group loved making use of the rooftop, the view was beautiful! Overall, I would definitely recommend this place.
