Snapshot: The Hyatt Regency O’Hare, Chicago

Time for another snapshot of my recent Chicago trip – this time at one of my familiar haunts, The Hyatt Regency O’Hare.

Location: Well it’s off North River Road in Rosemont. If you’re catching a cab or L service downtown, you can’t miss the place…

I spent way too much time catching up with friends that weekend, but I was glad I got a room at the group rate I’m on (it was good at killing the normal Hyatt rates in that hotel without trying).

I was assigned into the main block as requested, and to my surprise even though I booked a king, I was given a double-double. Now that’s what I’m talking about!

Beds – gotta admit they look better without the millions of occasional pillows.

TV and working area

The room was well heated/cool, and of course, it’s a Hyatt bed – which means I get some of the best sleep I get when travelling around.

Bathroom amenities were pretty much Hyatt standard, with a proper tub in these double-double rooms

Although, if one needed a decent coffee hit, I’d look elsewhere than the on-site coffee shop… $6.06 for a Venti Americano Coffee…

Hyatt Regency O’Hare Coffee from Perks. $6.06. Ouch.

Another having a Double-Double room in the main block in the Hyatt Regency O’Hare has one lovely feature – and that’s the view… especially at sunset

Not a bad view. At all.

I’ll have a lot more in the trip report, coming in the next few weeks!
