    This was a great location for all the things we wanted to do while in Chicago. We also liked being off the beaten path a bit and staying in a neighborhood v. downtown/tourist area. We could walk to the river. There were subway and L train stops...

    Swift response to an issue we've had with wind noise on the roof. Clean and modern. Like having a washer/dryer and close to River North & Streeterville.

Property info

Art-filled galleries. Bustling cafes. Posh boutiques. The Opal is at the heart of River North. This five-story brick building is covered in large windows, mirroring the beautiful skyscrapers around it. Inside, chic decor, en-suite laundry, and a fully equipped kitchen complete your apartment. Step outside, and you’ll be amidst endless dining and entertainment. The cavatelli from Quartino Ristorante is our favorite guilty pleasure. Or, if you’d prefer a home-cooked meal, there’s a Whole Foods Market right down the street. Take your time wandering around the Museum of Contemporary Art or the City Gallery inside a historic water tower. Experience Chicago with a comfortable stay at The Opal.

Neighborhood info

River North is brimming with art and culture. Once a manufacturing center, it features historic revamped architecture, stylish art galleries, and waterfront dining. Stroll along the iconic River Walk, which offers expansive city views. As night falls, watch one of the largest digital art displays illuminate the MART building. And with renowned restaurants, River North is a must for foodies.
