Top Elmhurst Hotel Reviews

Congress Plaza Hotel

8/10 Good

"The property is nice but you definitely get what you pay for. The ac in the room could not keep up even on a 75° day and the bathrooms in the lobby were vile but the room was cute and clean. The staff was wonderful."

The Royal Sonesta Chicago Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed solo for 3 nights Juneteenth weekend. I arrived early and was able to check in to a double room with a better view. There is a restaurant downstairs which I didn’t get to try. Gym was nice. Room was spotless. The area is a little sketchy at night. Location is central to everything. I would definitely stay here again."

Fairmont Chicago at Millennium Park

10/10 Excellent

"Great location- most attractions were an easy walk from the hotel. The hotel staff were all very nice and provided exceptional customer service. The room was well-appointed, with comfy beds and a beautiful bathroom. We paid extra for Fairmont Gold (concierge level) and found it to be a great value. The food at the buffet breakfast was delicious and they had nice snacks at other times of the day. The staff in the Concierge Lounge was top notch!"
