The Sophy Hotel Hyde Park - Wonderful Stay

Was in town from Dallas for CFP and my friend and I stayed at the Sophy for the first time. The service was great from the second we arrived. From the front desk to the bar area to the dining room, the staff were polite, professional, and attentive! I will definitely stay there again when I'm back in Chicago!
