Hotel Felix or Hard Rock?

Husband and I are headed to Chicago for our anniversary in July. Which hotel is more modern/trendy/fun? Which is in a better, central location? (we%26#39;re in our early 30%26#39;s)

Hotel Felix or Hard Rock?

Felix still is an unknown entity. Photos look nice, but used to be a transiant hotel, Hotel Wacker, so not sure how much was spent on the non-decor issues.

Also check out The James, Sofitel, Avenue, dana

Hotel Felix or Hard Rock?

Mrs. Davooda and I are very fond of Sofitel in the Gold Coast neighborhood. Not only is this a modern, chic hotel property, Le Bar (the hotel bar) is a cool scene and the neighborhood lends itself to nice walks, shopping and, since you%26#39;re going in July, Oak Street Beach is a short stroll east to the lakefront. If you%26#39;re into eclectic live music, Underground Wonderbar is in close proximity and it%26#39;s always fun to windowshop the Bentley/Ferrari dealership down the street.

I don%26#39;t know you%26#39;re budget, but we%26#39;ve stayed at Sofitel for as little as $135/night. We popped for a suite for our 10th anniversary in August 2008 and were quite happy with the room and the view.

We also had an excellent experience at The James two years ago. This River North hotel is hip and cool and the neighborhood is home to many restaurants, clubs, and shopping...and there%26#39;s a Trader Joe%26#39;s right across the street for convenient breakfast food.

Hope this helps!
