7. You can sometimes get a suite at that Doubletree for about the same price (though on this particularly July weekend, there were no discounts there except on a smoking suite), and the Doubletree is far superior because 1) the suites and lobby are more elegantly decorated, and the suite bathroom is situated between rooms, and 2) Doubletree on Soldiers Field Road, though not in the heart of the city either, is a more elegant, 'happening' place with a cool jazz club and beautiful dining room with a view of the Charles River, plus a small pool.
