I normally like the North Michigan area, but if you want to be downtown in the loop (near the art museum, for example), there's an interesting new option. The Chicago Athletic Club has been turned into a boutique hotel and it looks very interesting. The restaurant has apparently been getting rave reviews and the bar on top seems to be a current place to see and be seen. I'm not sure whether it's true luxury--I haven't stayed here yet--but it would be my top pick for the loop area.
