Top DePaul University-Loop Campus Hotel Reviews

L7 Chicago by LOTTE

6/10 Okay

"they were going through some elevator issues but what stood out is how the bathroom fixtures and other items were tired and in need of upgrading. Rust on fixtures at the base, areas that need cleaning, not worth the price."

Congress Plaza Hotel

6/10 Okay

"The hotel was clean for the most part. Corridors smells like soap because I truly believe the housekeeping works hard to keep them that way. Unfortunately the hotel was just old and needs much needed upgrade. The bathroom was looking noticeably old too and the water in the bath area needs to be at certain angle to release enough pressure and hot water. Still doable and workable with but maybe not for $600 a night... Our room ended being family suite which we didn't realize upon booking much and the front desk didnt debrief it until we reclarify it after. The first receptionist almost said the main room was not part of our room until another lady came to correct her (thankfully). I do wish that the picture of the property on expedia is more reflective to the current hotel situation though. Because it looks similar but the actual looks way older than it actually is...."

Freehand Chicago

4/10 Poor

"Not for me. It was like a hostel, but $450 a night. All the lighting was dim and yellow, and the shade in our room was broken, so it was a struggle to even get natural light. The dim bathroom fixture also buzzed loudly. There was no fan in the campground-inspired bathroom, the elevators were incredibly outdated, and when I went to the front desk to ask for an extra pillow, I was told they didn’t have any more pillows. I went to the desk in person because there was no mechanism to call from the room, even by calling the hotel from my cell. Never again. I will say that housekeeping and maintenance staff we encountered were very friendly."

Silversmith Hotel Chicago Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The staff at Silversmith is exceptional. Lucia and Susan at the front desk were so kind and helpful. While the room we originally checked into was beautiful, it was on the third floor with the windows facing the L train tracks. Lucia assisted us in finding another room for the remainder of our stay (6 nights total) The high ceilings and spacious hotel rooms are a huge plus. Location is super convenient. We appreciated the daily coffee available in the mornings (nice and strong), and the water provided daily. There’s also a delicious and very poplar coffee shop right across the street - Goddess and the Baker (breakfast sandwiches, omelette, pastries, juicers, coffee, etc). There is also an authentic Japanese soufflé pancake spot right around the corner from the front of the hotel. We went multiple times during our stay. Couldn’t have asked for a better hotel experience for our first visit in the beautiful city of Chicago! We would not hesitate to stay at the Silversmith again for a future visit. Too bad the bar wasn’t too lively in the evenings, and would close pretty early (10 p.m.) most days. Even so, the bartenders and staff were still great during the times we hung out in the large seating area. We did not try the à la carte breakfast (not included in the stay) so don’t have any feedback on that."
