Fun Facts!
InterContinental Chicago Magnificent Mile is more than a luxury hotel, it is a landmark destination steeped in history and designed for modern wellness. Originally built in 1929 as the exclusive Medinah Athletic Club, the iconic building at 505 North Michigan Avenue showcases remarkable architectural details including a grand bronze entrance, marble columns, cast-bronze friezes, painted ceilings, and a sweeping staircase. While the original athletic club facilities are no longer intact, the hotel's wellness legacy remains at its core, highlighted by its historic Junior Olympic-size swimming pool, which still features the original 1920s Spanish Majolica tiles. Today, the hotel serves as an urban resort and a tranquil retreat from the energy of the Magnificent Mile, blending thoughtful luxury touches, such as complimentary Byredo® Bal d'Afrique bath amenities, with memorable experiences and amenities. Guests enjoy complimentary access to the newly renovated three-level fitness center, featuring cardio and strength-training equipment, free weights, TRX bands, BOSU trainers, punching bags, Finnish saunas, locker rooms, and the celebrated indoor pool. Throughout the year, guests can also enjoy seasonal activations, including Live Jazz Nights on Thursdays in the historic lobby, where Chicago's rich musical heritage comes to life alongside handcrafted cocktails at the ‘Bathtub Gin Bar’, and family-friendly Dive-In Movie Nights at the pool on Fridays and Saturdays, offering films, snacks, refreshments, and oversized floats for a fun-filled weekend experience exclusively for hotel guests.
