If by "over 60 craft microbrews w seasonal rotation" you…read moremean, 'occasionally having 60 bottles of a single local beer in the cooler in the back,' ...then yeah. Sure. Otherwise, the bar offers overpriced bottles of Modello, Lagunitas & Heineken. A bottle of water is $5. No local or craft beers. Nothing on tap. A bar that boasts over 60 craft beers is a place with a very well developed bar program, which this is not. The sound system was incredibly average: boomy bass, crass highs, zero mids. It's really hard to hear any detail in the music. The staff was superb. Super nice. Kudos on hiring great people. This is a small, dank, rudimentary basement bar that holds about 110 people - which is FINE if it's advertised that way. The reason for my low rating is that it failed to live up to it's own hype.

This hotel was located within the loop near the river, shops, bars and restaurants. The hotel rooms are basic and small. We were fortunate to get an upgraded room with two queen beds and an amazing view out the window of the city. The window was large and clean. The beds were comfy with ample pillows. Four pillows were provided. The hotel set up is a bit awkward. Room is best for one person as lacks storage for large luggage. Plus there is not a defined bathroom. The shower is within the bedroom. Fortunately the shower was frosted but you walk right into the bedroom so you must be comfortable with those you stay with. Plus the room does really have a deck and chair to work. The desk is a fold down from the wall. The chair for the deck is located on the wall and not really suitable for long term working on sitting as does not have a back to it. The best thing above this hotel are the staff. The front desk staff are super friendly and accommodating and aim to please. The bartender was super friendly and attentive as well. Lastly parking is not available right at the hotel. You have to walk two blocks. Plus parking cost 59 dollars and that's the discounted rate. Also not really a suitable place to drop luggage off. If you pull up to the front door, you are blocking traffic. Base on price of 400 dollars the night we stayed, I would say it's not worth the stay. Maybe it's worth 200 or less for Chicago.

As someone who doesn't really club at all and is looking for a place to just have some fun and…read moredance in a low pressure environment, this is the perfect place. I came here on Halloween last year, and I had fun but the music wasn't really my vibe, so I was happy when my sister wanted to celebrate her birthday here and we saw they were doing a Y2k night! All the songs they played were classics that everyone knows, and it was so much fun. The bar is pretty large and there's a lot of space to dance. They don't let it get too crowded, so it never feels unsafe or too hot. The decor inside is like a retro 1960s salon, making it great for photos. There's also a photo booth where you get 1 colored and 1 black and white strip ($7). They charge a cover around 9pm I think, so just get there before then so you won't have to pay. We got there around 8pm on a Saturday and barely anyone was there, but around 9pm more and more people started to show up. There's usually a line if you get there later because they limit the amount of people inside. Also keep in mind cocktails were $16 and there's a card minimum of $20, which basically forces you to buy two if you're using card. The drinks are super strong and they definitely do not skimp lol. The espresso martini was my favorite of the night!

We started with dinner at Good Funk (sooo good) and then walked over to Beauty Bar. We joined the line of women waiting to get in when I remarked that I don't really wait in line these days- especially in 20 degrees! My friend suggested we go up to the bouncer and talk our way in as we used to in the good old days, but I looked around and noticed we were 20 years older than everyone else...so figured that wouldn't work! Regardless it was worth a shot so we went up the bouncer and tried to talk our way in...and denied! Finally enough people left the bar that they let us in to crowds and crowds of women. We paid the the cover fee of $15 and I was delighted to see that in 2026 you could pay bars with apple pay! I'll admit this wasn't really my scene these days, but we made the best of it and started dancing away. The music was really great! My friend warned me that the best drinks were served in cans so I ordered a high noon. At one point my friend and I had to use the restroom so we pushed our way thru the hundreds of sweaty women. Plus the 3 men who showed up after an epic beads game. Our biggest complaint was that there was nowhere to hang our purse in the bathroom, which i'm sure the rest of the under 28 crowd wasn't worried about. At midnight our carriage (aka party bus) arrived so it was time to leave Beauty Bar. I can't say I was sad, but it was definitely an experience and always fun to go dancing at a bar every decade or so these days. And, most importantly, the bday gal had a blast!

There was even a group of 4+ girls who sang together on stage, and the energy was so infectious, it got the whole bar yelling the lyrics along with them. Would highly recommend!
