About the Hotel

See the world hum along on Columbus Drive from the floor-to-ceiling windows while you sip your new favorite wine at Filini, an authentic Italian restaurant located inside the Radisson Blu Aqua.

Perfect for business lunches, romantic dinners or a casual gathering with friends, Filini also features a chic bar decorated with geometric tiles and a backlit display of spirits. Let your adventures begin at the Radisson Blu Aqua, an architectural pinnacle in downtown Chicago near iconic attractions, the Financial District and famous North Michigan Avenue. Take a peek out of your hotel room window and set your sights on your first stop, perhaps Lakeshore East Park, Millennium Park and Lake Michigan. Whether you have your heart set on taking a sightseeing cruise at the Navy Pier, picnicking at Millennium Park or touring the Art Institute of Chicago, our downtown hotel's location near the lakefront provides you easy access to all the Chicago must-sees.

Reviews for Radisson Blu Aqua Hotel

Top notch service, professional all the way. Highly recommend!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 5 days ago

From the moment we stepped out of our vehicle, we were taken care of and made to feel like we were part of an extended family. Hassan took exceptionally great care of us during our three-day stay and I cannot say enough kind words about him and his demeanor. He truly enjoys what he does and the hotel is lucky to have such an amazing ambassador representing it. Also kudos to the FireLake staff and chef. We wanted to experience different eateries in Chicago but could have had meals in-house every single day without one ounce of disappointment. The food was incredible! I would not want to stay anywhere else in the city again-this place was top notch. Not one complaint about any of my experience here.

Visiting Chicago from Tennessee. We've stayed here on several occasions. Alex and Gigi at the front desk were professional, friendly and very helpful. That's really all I wanted to say. But this review requires me to enter 200 characters minimum. So I just had to write something more.

This was probably the PRETTIEST hotel i have ever stayed in! The vibe/ambiance was immaculate. It was giving expensive and luxurious. With a wonderful hotel comes wonderful service! Alex, the man at the front desk absolutely Served!!! He was very accommodating and welcoming. He also had a spectacular appearance and great attitude, he absolutely ate that blonde hair and crisp blazer! It’s amazing to have a great looking hotel and great amenities, but also having a great first impression of the establishment is catch patrons and keeping them in the pool was way too cold to go in but the jacuzzi was p e r f e c t! The view of the city from the 14th floor was beautiful and a great way to start the day! We requested a mini fridge and it was sent over immediately!… unfortunately we realized that we did already in fact have a mini fridge already… I wish i got the name of the nice man who carried that whole fridge with pure muscle! That man and Alex, of course, really deserve a raise. I hope that they have nothing but good luck and fortune this coming new years! Definitely stay here every aspect was a 10/10! The only problem is that I can’t afford to stay there forever :((( I’m literally recommending this place to everyone i know!
