I've stayed here twice and both times it was nice, but nothing special. The rooms were nice and depending on where you are, have good views of Chicago. The staff made helpful recommendations for dinner and made reservations for me, and also were helpful to me upon checkout when I left something in the room. A friend was staying at... More

We really enjoyed this hote at the north end of the loop by the river. It's centrally located so it's pretty convenient to just about anything you would want to do downtown. Our room was spacious with a nice seating area away from the beds - almost a suite but without a wall. The bathroom was spacious and modern. Some... More

I stayed at this hotel last weekend and could not have asked for a better location. It was clean (and I am picky) and the staff was great. I paid more for the river view which was fabulous and worth the money. The concierge was very helpful. I have not given many good ratings on hotels before, but found this... More

Stayed here for 7 days stretching to the first week of June. Hotel location- awesome centrally located, walking distance from the Chicago Theater, river cruise, millennium mile, Millennium Park and the Hyatt regency hotel for meetings. Good places to eat around the hotel. Service- seamless is the word to define it. We were offered bundled package with Internet and breakfast... More

We stayed here Memorial Day weekend for my son's wedding. The location is excellent for walking to many restaurants and sites; also for accessing public transportation. Though we had a good rate due to a block of rooms for the wedding, the price was somewhat higher than we normally would pay for lodging. . . But, for downtown Chicago, we... More

Large well appointed rooms and bathroom. Everything was very clean and of first quality, but not quite luxurious. Elevators were fast to arrive and fast to get to my rather high floor. The location is very good - not more than a twenty minute walk from anything you might want to do when you are not working. A few small... More

I have stayed here alot. This hotel has a great, central location and is a good value. The rooms are high end, marble, clean and well appointed. The health club is great and complimentary. There is an indoor pool, hot tub, and steam room. The concierge lounge is excellent, with a great breakfast daily, except for weekends. Valet is sometimes... More

Being our first time in Chicago, it was good that we chose this hotel. Great location: Hotel is in the corner of Wacker Drive and State Street. Just 5-10 minutes from Millennium Park where we boarded for our hop on-hop off tour of Chicago. Want to shop? You can walk to Millennium Mile if you like walking (which we did)... More

I went to this hotel for business...The location was great. Also, check in was quick and the rooms were clean and updated. The hotel also has a pool that is worth checking out if you have time. Finally, the staff always appeared concerned that the experience was a good one, which I appreciate. I would recommend this hotel if you're... More
