Chicago's outpost of the members-only club for creative types opens its hotel to the masses. There are only 40 rooms in the century-old, former factory in the red-hot West Loop, but snag one and you'll settle in to a good-sized chamber with vintage decor, velvet couches and fluffy robes. Also access to the rooftop pool and gym with boxing ring.
