If you like historic buildings you might enjoy the Hotel Burnham. It's in the Reliance Building (1895), designed by Burnham, Root, and Atwood in the style that was unique to Chicago around the turn of the century ("the Chicago style"). I stayed there for Exotica in 2003. The rooms are small but fancy. It's only 3 or 4 blocks from Trader Vic's. The cost is in the price range of many loop hotels (expensive during the week and moderate on weekends).

If you like mid-century buildings and want to splurge you can stay in the Marina Towers (1964) on the 40th. floor in a one-bedroom apartment with mid-century modern decor for $165/night. Not a bad deal!
