  • The InterContinental Hotel is a luxury landmark hotel. The historical building was originally built in 1929 and served as a luxury men's club . It was converted to a hotel in 1988. The InterContinental is located in the heart of Chicago's Magnificent Mile. As far as location goes, it could not be more convenient. Some sites and attractions are within walking distance. The trolley stops are located right by the hotel. The service was good and the rooms were fine.

    Unique Qualities: You must check out the pool while you are there. (See tip below.)

    Unique Qualities: Even if you don't use the pool, you must at least go see it as I did. As you first enter, it appears as if you have entered something out of Roman literature. The pool was build as part of the originial construction of the building dating back to 1929. At its time, it was considered quite extraordinary to have built a pool above ground.

    There is a statue of Neptune on the far wall and there is stadium seating for observers. The pool is located in the historical tower of the building.
