A Chicago hotel has been named a finalist in a contest for "America's Best Restroom."
The Renaissance Hotel in downtown Chicago was listed among the top 10 finalists in the competition, which is now left up for a public vote.
“Most public bathrooms are not considered pleasant places to be, but with their stunning stalls and unique design features, this year’s 10 finalists are tourist attractions in their own right,” said Sean Mulcahey, marketing manager for Cintas, the corporation hosting the contest. “These finalists realize the impact a clean and memorable restroom has on the customer experience. We can’t wait to see which one America selects as its favorite.”
The Chicago bathroom tucked away near the Raised Urban Rooftop Bar made the cut because it "makes it easy to forget you're in the heart of downtown Chicago."
In previous years, the Field Museum, The Drake Hotel and The Signature Room have also been nominated.
Voting for the top restroom continues through Oct. 27.
