A landmark on Chicago’s famed “Magnificent Mile,” the Knickerbocker is rich in tradition and exudes timeless elegance and luxury from every room. Opening its doors on May 16, 1927, the hotel was designed in an eclectic style under the notable Chicago architects Rissman & Hirshfield.  The magnificent Crystal Ballroom, with its twenty-five foot high domed ceiling, graceful balcony and original built-in illuminated dance floor, has been the setting for many prominent gatherings, political conventions, business meetings, dinner dances and weddings throughout the years. Today, the hotel offers the glamour and allure of the roaring 20's, combined with modern amenities, the latest technology and the highest standards of hospitality.

Richard Nixon stayed here during the 1952 Republican National Convention, where he was unexpectedly nominated for Vice President.
