Hotel Expert's Tip. French ambiance and European composition surrounded me as I embraced the history of the Sofitel Chicago Water Tower, an architectural wonder of its day in the Gold Coast neighborhood of downtown Chicago, Ill., designed in the shape of a prism by famed French architect Jean Paul Viguier.
