Junior Suite, 1 Bedroom (Skyline View)

As the name says, this suite is oriented toward Chicago's skyline. Sheraton Grand Chicago Riverwalk sits right on the Chicago Riverwalk in the River North/Streeterville district, so the outlook is distinctly downtown and urban. Blackout drapes in the bedroom let you keep the room dark when you want to sleep in.

The suite sleeps up to four guests: one king bed in the bedroom and a double sofa bed in the living area. That suits a couple with two children, or two couples who don't mind one sharing the sofa bed. The mattress is a pillowtop with a down comforter, and a pillow menu is offered. A rollaway or extra bed is available for a surcharge, and up to two children aged 17 or younger stay free when using existing bedding in a parent's room.

This category carries a thoughtful set of accessibility features: a grab bar near the toilet at 35 inches, a height-adjustable showerhead, low-height electrical outlets in the bathroom, a low-height door lock and door view port, lever door handles and closed-captioned TV. Free toiletries, shampoo, soap, towels and a hair dryer are provided, with toothbrush and toothpaste on request. The hotel also has elevators and accessible on-site parking spaces.

A daily destination fee of $20 plus tax applies and covers a food and beverage credit, fitness classes, Chicago popcorn, a local gift and in-room WiFi. In the suite you will find a flat-screen TV with cable channels, streaming services and Netflix. Extras include a rollaway bed at $25 per night and self-parking at $75 per day per the hotel's Marriott listing. Valet parking is also offered, at rates that vary over time.

Yes. The separate bedroom and living area with a sofa bed give families room to spread out, and couples get a quiet bedroom apart from the seating space. Sheraton Grand Chicago Riverwalk is a family-friendly hotel with an indoor heated pool on the 7th floor and a complimentary Sheraton Fitness Center with Peloton bikes and a dry sauna. Pets are welcome too, up to two per room, each up to 75 lbs.

There are several options on property. Riverside Café on the second floor serves breakfast, lunch and weekend brunch with river views. Link Café serves Starbucks drinks, pastries and sandwiches daily from 6:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Shula's Steak House serves dinner nightly from 5:30 PM, and CHI Bar is open Tuesday to Saturday evenings. Chicago Burger Company on the Riverwalk is seasonal. A La Carte room service lets you dine in the suite.

The Riverwalk is at the hotel's doorstep, and Michigan Avenue (the Magnificent Mile) is a 5–7 minute walk. Millennium Park is about 10 minutes on foot, and Navy Pier about 14 minutes by the hotel's own attractions map. The CTA Red Line Grand station is roughly a 12-minute walk. Oak Street Beach is about a 24-minute walk. Chicago River architecture boat tours depart a short stroll from the hotel.

Check-in begins at 4:00 PM and check-out is by noon, per the hotel's Marriott listing. Late check-out is subject to availability for a fee. The minimum check-in age is 21, with photo ID and a credit card required. Midway is the closer airport, about 12–13 miles away, and O'Hare is about 17–18 miles away, with taxis from O'Hare typically $40–$45. GO Airport Express Shuttle also serves the hotel for a fee.
