Nestled in the heart of Fulton Market, The Emily Hotel serves as your home base to experience Chicago's legendary entertainment, iconic architecture and rich collection of cultural attractions.

We’ve mapped out a few of our local favorites and must-visit destinations to help you build your itinerary.
