Eurostars Magnificent Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was kind, gym had a gorgeous view, loved the floor to ceiling windows, restaurants was great! And overall great location"

Hotel Felix River North/Magnificent Mile

8/10 Good

"Staff was friendly and hotel was very clean! It’s in a great location and we enjoyed our room a lot! I took off a point because when we asked for fresh towels, they never came to our room and we had to ask again. But overall very comfortable and pleasant stay!"

Hilton Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"The Hilton Chicago is the best hotel I have ever been in over 45 years of traveling. The hotel is spectacularly maintained and the staff supremely helpful and concerned about the customers needs. The breakfast buffet is totally worth the cost. The location is second to none. If I wind up in Chicago again, I will be found at the Hilton Chicago."

Congress Plaza Hotel

6/10 Okay

"I will say this hotel was ok to stay in for a 4 day event. However, the air conditioning in the room barely worked and our room felt muggy and warm. It was the same case with the refrigerator, barely worked to keep things cold. The walls were paper thin and we could hear every conversation the room next door was having. The lobby was lovely and very kept up with, however the upper levels where our room was located were not in the best of shape (peeling paint, chips in walls/floors). No space on sink to place things in the bathroom, only a small glass shelf to keep bathroom items. We may have just gotten a room in an older wing of the hotel, but based on what we saw most of the hotel was the same. Only place to park near the hotel was a garage - no free parking came with the hotel stay. But if you get lucky there’s a small spot to pull your car up to the hotel."

Freehand Chicago

8/10 Good

"My stay at Freehand Chicago was very satisfying. Overall, the value for the price is excellent; it’s hard to find a place that offers this level of quality at such a competitive rate. The location is absolutely great, making it very easy to get around the city and enjoy all the key spots. The only downside was that the room had a slight musty smell, which could be improved. Aside from that, the hotel is very good, the facilities are pleasant, and the atmosphere is very positive. I would recommend it for anyone looking for a great place to stay without overspending."
