Location
The Allerton Hotel
The rich history of The Allerton Hotel Magnificent Mile begins in the roaring twenties when it opened as a residential "club hotel." One of the first high-rises on Michigan Avenue, its beautiful Northern Italian Renaissance architecture stood in contrast to the prevalent Georgian and Tudor Revival cityscape.
By the 1940's, when the famous Tip Top Tap sign was first illuminated, the downtown Chicago historic hotel was known around town as one of the most exciting social hot spots. It gained nationwide attention during the 1950's when Don McNeil broadcast a popular radio program from the 23rd floor lounge.
In June of 1998, the City of Chicago designated The Allerton Hotel as a historic landmark, and a $60-million renovation project was launched. Today, you can experience the charming history of the property. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, The Allerton Hotel remains a proud landmark among historic hotels in Chicago.
