One block from Chicago Theater. Next to but not too close to L stations that serve all lines. Right-sized lobby, efficient check-in; good, quick breakfast. Clean. Easy-going, professional staff. Would stay again in a second.

Me and my girlfriend were in town for the Gary Clark Jr. concert. We stayed at theWit and was impressed from the beginning to checkout. We were on the 17th floor in a corner room. This was one of the best rooms, we ever stayed in. The view is worth every penny. The best part was taking a bath with the city skyline in the background. The staff was helpful and very accommodating. They stayed professional despite the chaos of St. Patrick’s Day weekend. They also sent texts to us throughout the day, inquiring about our stay and answering every question we had. This hotel is highly recommended and we will be returning throughout the year. Collapse

The Wit is a very nice hotel in a great location. It is less than a block from the Chicago Theater and many restaurants and shops. The rooms have excellent beds and pillows and are very clean. The restaurant inside the hotel has good food and a nice variety. The other attraction at the hotel is the Roof Top bar. We didn't visit it but I have had friends tell me that the views are spectacular. It is very popular on the weekends. I have used this hotel for both business and pleasure and I would definitely go back. Collapse
Best hotel in Chicago

Our first experience in Chicago was the best! Majority of the reason was because of this great hotel. They accommodated every need. We will 100% be going back and we’ll recommend anyone traveling to Chicago to go there.

I decided to stay at the Wit because of its location, a short walk to the theatre next door. My room was on the 23rd floor with a view of the lake and Millennium Park ( best view ever from a Chicago Hotel). The Wit is close to restaurants and walking distance to Walgreens (very important because I always forget to pack something). The staff was magnificent. Very cordial and willing to accommodate the guest. I requested a late cleaning of my room (after 5:00 pm) without hesitation the housekeeping staff arrived and cleaned my room. The front desk staff provided helpful information. Room service fast but expensive. The only drawback was the business center ( It was small with only two computers). I will stay at the Wit again but next time I will bring my computer. Collapse
