Hotel Felix Is Our Happy Place

Hotel Felix Is Our Happy Place

The name Felix means happy. So naturally, Hotel Felix in River North is our happy place! They are the first hotel in Chicago with a Gold LEED certification by using organic materials and renewable resources. They are also energy efficient down to their plumbing. In addition to being green, they are a luxury boutique hotel bringing you an exquisite, first-class experience.

When entering your room at Hotel Felix you can expect a clean, contemporary room with energy efficient lighting, recycled carpeting, and a bathroom with efficient plumbing and all-natural bath amentities. Only eco-friendly cleaners are used when cleaning the rooms and washing linens and they do not use any bleach. Read more about their eco-friendly initiatives here. They are also in the process of adding to Chicago's 300 green roofs. We love you Felix!
