Gorgeous and lovely. The staff is amazing abd hard working. Everything is so clean and so well cared for. The buffet luncheon i had was the best food this year in the city for me. The art work, of course, is fantastic. I cannot say enough good things about this Chicago Institution. Bravo !!!!!!!

Very beautiful and historic club right in the heart of the loop. Wonderful food in the main dining room with elegant and historic artwork through the club. Hotel rooms are impeccable and spacious. A beautiful club to see in Chicago and I would recommend locals signing up to be a member.

I think the ULC is for a certain kind of guest. And perhaps I'm not that kind. It's idiosyncratic and old-school in a way that isn't charming as much as scolding. I felt like I was unwelcome and was here to serve their needs. At best, I was just kind of in their way. For $350 a night. Every request I made of the staff was denied. Late check-out? No. Store my bag while I wait? No. Wear a coat in the cafe? No. And on and on. I'm used to hotels being in the service business, so this was a new experience. I was picturing more of a Soho House experience, which this definitely was not. I would liken my stay at the Union League Club in this way...it's like going to visit your grandparents if your grandparents don't actually like you very much and just kind of want you to leave.

Great ambience for the introductory cocktail party greeting our Idaho World War 1 Centennial Commission delegation and representatives from other states. We enjoyed the wonderful menu and wine. Met the grandson of Sgt. Alvin Collum York... MOH recipient and the most decorated Doughboy of the Great War in the elevator going up. Col.Gerald York thanked us for our service in educating Idahoans about the importance of a mostly forgotten war and its heroes and heroines who served "Over There." Colonel York is a great man, just like his grandfather!

I was treated to a lunch here from a great friend. The building decor is exceptional and allows one to escape the busyness of the city. The fine wood work and beautiful furniture make one appreciate the hard work and craftsmanship so many American workers provided in the past. The dining experience is first class from beginning to end. Each guest is treated as royalty. The steak was prepared magnificently and the vegetables were farm fresh. I was given a tour of the facility and all I can say is they do not construct a building with such style strength and pride anymore. The hotel is exceptional with absolute purity in each suite. The remainder of the club offers recreational and leisure activities for people of all ages. Attend!!!!!!

Have patronized this club 35+ years with my member husband who is now deceased. My closest friend from New York stated that her dinner was the best she ever had. The night before we ate at a very expensive 5 star restaurant that didn't match the quality and service at The Union League Club. This Club offers monthly functions that offers many many opportunities to meet and mingle plus promoting your businesses. The atmosphere is top notch class.

Ok

Very classy oldest private club in Chicago founded by civil war union veterans who were part of 19th century Chicago elite. The art on their walls would be prized by both the art institute and the historical society. The busiest private banqueting facilities in the city.

Such a beautiful old piece of architecture. Everyone should stop in and take a look around, not sure if that's an option, but worth trying. They have a library! Who knew?!?! A little expensive, but beautiful.

My brother had a cocktail hour here before his wedding night, and the staff was excellent and very understanding of any needs that we had even though we weren t the largest party that night we still felt cared for

Preservation Chicago had an event in the banquet hall. This place is legendary. What a perfect place for an event by this organization. A tribute to the old architecturally significant city of Chicago. Priceless artwork on the walls--I felt like I was in another time period. I also felt guilty for living my pipsqueak life and vowed to change my lifestyle instantly to honor the ones who had reached such great cultural heights before me. Of course, that ended the next morning, but I was inspired nonetheless.

Elegant decor, awesome artwork EVERYWHERE, great food and wonderful staff. Convenient to downtown Chicago. Perfect meeting location so people who work downtown can attend a luncheon meeting and get back to work.

Stayed here courtesy a friend who's a member. The rooms are very comfortable and nice. The location of the club is quite good.
We had coffee at the lounge down stairs before checking in and the staff was extremely courteous. The bar also had a great staff and the drinks quite nice.
The location of this club is great with everything in downtown at walking distance. Could explore a lot from here. Great place at a good price..

Amazing location downtown and phenominal service. This is a club so you need to be invited to stay by a member. The gym looks like a ymca that is still transitioning from the 70s into the modern day. Not a bad thing, just quirky. Everything else is elegant and top notch. AC actually gets the room cold. That is nice.

The only problem here is the age of the building. Although some will say that this is one of the strengths of the club. There's tons of history here everywhere you look. You also have the second most art here in Chicago for any private organization. There are hotel rooms, meeting rooms, workout rooms, swimming pools, lunch spots, a cigar spot, wedding spots, a terrible basketball court, small library, and just about anything else you'd need. Only downside? Got to pay for clubs. Reminds me of an adult fraternity.

I have never been treated as well as I was here. I was attending with a friend because his sister-in-law was performing, and we were welcomed despite our youth. I hope to have occasion to visit again.

The service is superb. Food is excellent. I held an event there in addition to staying there and everything was top shelf. The concierge is excellent and remembered my son from the year before. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
