You have to use the elevator, from the Mall or Rush Street after hours (unless that has changed from my last stay) to get to the hotel lobby. Once in the hotel lobby you use the hotel elevators to get to/from guest rooms.

Is that what you meant or is there something else going on like renovations that have the will require guest to use two elevators?

Also, this isn't just close to Nordstrom, it's connect (above) the Mall.
First you are right with regard to elevator. For me it's going through two packed elevators is just like going through tourists in Time Square...

Second, I don't pay 9%+ sales tax in Chicago, so I did not visit NS at all. I just noticed there is a NS while I was in a nearby Starbucks. I can't really give out information I am not aware of so I used the word "close to".
