With its location on the Magnificent Mile the Westin Michigan Avenue is known for its proximity to some of Chicago’s best shopping. It’s across the street from the upscale 900 North Michigan Shops and a block away from Water Tower Place.
It’s also near some of Chicago’s top attractions. Step outside the doors on Delaware Avenue and you’re across the street from the John Hancock Building. Inside that towering icon is 360 Chicago and its new Tilt, which leans visitors over the streets below for a birds’ eye view from 1,000 feet up. There’s also the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Loyola University Museum of Art, the historic Water Tower and Pumping Station, Broadway Playhouse and Lookingglass Theaters, and inside Water Tower Place, the new Chicago Sports Museum.
One major attraction that’s just a couple of blocks away from the Westin is the pristine Oak Street Beach. This sandy escape is right off of Lake Shore Drive but you’ll feel like you’re at a remote getaway. You can rent chairs, cabanas, and umbrellas, grab a cocktail at Oak Street Beach Food + Drink, and you can even get a massage,
