With a view like this (and a gourmet kitchen, top restaurant and all of Chicago’s dining options at your disposal), you might be inspired to reinvigorate your fitness routine in the workout center, open only to hotel guests and residents of the condos in the tower above.

Open to the public, the Spa at Trump Tower offers only the healthiest choices while you engage in services that feature ground-up gemstones, pearls, frangipani-scented oils and marine phytoplankton. A personal spa attaché will help you select an itinerary based on whether you really need to calm, balance, purify, heal or revitalize. They’ll be happy to arrange repeat visits if you choose “all of the above.”

Thinking of drinking your dinner? Head to Sixteen or the Trump Hotel lounge, Rebar, where you can experience the “liquid kitchen,” the program so named because they use fresh, edible flowers and herbs in their drinks.

The lunch menu at Sixteen includes a soft-shell crab club sandwich with fat waffle fries for $23.

There are 900 bottles of wine in the floor-to-ceiling vaults that line the passage into Sixteen, and they’re nothing like 99 bottles of beer on the wall.

They aren’t done yet. The Trump developers are taking full advantage of their primo spot on the river, planning an outdoor lounge for this space next year. Views include the Wrigley clock tower and the bridges over the river, straight out to Lake Michigan.
