Nobu Hotel Chicago

Nobu Hotel Chicago brings the celebrity restaurant brand's calm, minimalist aesthetic to the West Loop, the city's most dynamic dining and nightlife neighborhood. Rooms are serene and design-forward with Japanese-influenced touches; the on-site Nobu restaurant and its rooftop bar are destinations in themselves. For travelers who want to be in the middle of the West Loop's restaurant scene — including the famed Randolph Street "Restaurant Row" — it's ideally placed.

Nobu Hotel Chicago sits in the West Loop, the former meatpacking and warehouse district that has become the city's epicenter of dining and nightlife. The hotel extends the Nobu brand's signature aesthetic — serene, minimalist, with natural materials and Japanese-influenced design — across its rooms and public spaces.

The big draw is location and scene. The on-site Nobu restaurant delivers the brand's well-known Japanese-Peruvian cuisine, and the hotel's bars, including a rooftop, are part of the neighborhood's nightlife. Step outside and you're among the West Loop's celebrated restaurants — Randolph Street's "Restaurant Row" packs many of the city's most sought-after tables within a few blocks. Rooms are calm retreats from the energy outside, with the polished, understated style the brand is known for.

The West Loop is slightly removed from the classic tourist core — the Loop and Millennium Park are a quick rideshare or a longer walk east, and the river is between — but for food-focused travelers and those who want a stylish, of-the-moment neighborhood base, it's exactly where they'd want to be. Transit and walkability to the West Loop's own attractions are strong.
