"Everyone was friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The facility was clean, but do know they were making some repairs. Kitchen had what you needed. I could have used a fuller pillow, but that was no biggie. Close to a grocery store, pharmacy, Ulta (which was so helpful!), and some eateries. Close to the Metro, which was great! Not as close to downtown as I would have liked, but it wasn't too far either. Definitely a place worth checking out!"

Top Illinois Hotel Reviews

InterContinental Chicago Magnificent Mile by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was amazing"

Hilton Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"I was upgraded to a larger room with amazing views upon request for my birthday weekend stay ! All of the staff were friendly and professional and Willie with housekeeping was especially helpful getting me an extra blanket and making some local recommendations for food and attractions. He was very kind and a real asset to the hotel staff . My server Juan in the 720 restaurant was also very nice . The breakfast buffet was excellent, a little pricey but includes all drinks including fresh OJ . The bacon and pancakes were delicious. I didn’t try the other restaurant Kittys . Only the rooms facing the street have views so keep that in mind when booking a room otherwise you’ll be facing a wall . The rooms are clean and beds are pretty comfortable . All in all a very good stay"
