Def JW over W... i stayed at the W a lot because of SPG loyalty, but the place is a hole. Westin RN is ok, Michigan Ave is a lot nicer if you can be farther away.

Jw hands down

Put my family friends in the JW, no complaints

I like Jw as well. Had a great experience at the W lakeshore though.

Ritz

W Lakeshore was great. Nice view of Navy Pier too

Lucky. My downtown client negotiated a subpar Marriott in the suburbs (burr ridge) I have to take the bus to work from the hotel. Sigh.

Westin Michigan Ave is pretty great. Depends on where you need to be

Jw always
