Top Theatre District Hotel Reviews

L7 Chicago by LOTTE

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at this hotel with my 8 year old son for my 50th birthday. There was bubbly in the room when I arrived which was a lovely touch. The room was great, particularly the window seat which I was much bigger than I expected with plenty of room for both of us to sit and have a drink and look at the river. The room was clean and spacious, the coffee machine in the foyer really good for lattes and the staff were really helpful. I would definitely like to stay at this hotel again."

Club Quarters Hotel, Central Loop, Chicago

8/10 Good

"It’s an older hotel, so the air conditioning is always on, or the heat is. Since it was the start of summer season - full on air, so we were freezing. They brought us a space heater, so that fixed the condition. Their advertised “kitchenette” is only a microwave and small fridge, with no utensils or dishes, so be prepared. Also, the carpet felt constantly wet - wear slippers. Hard bed made for sore mornings, but some people like it that way. We were able to walk to the bus stops to get around, and it’s a short Uber ride from the train station and walk to Avis car rental."

Cambria Hotel Chicago Loop - Theatre District

8/10 Good

"I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Cambria. Employees at the reception were very nice. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable. I could hear street noises but mostly muffled so my sleep was not disrupted. The hallway on my floor (6th floor) was a bit run down (stains on the carpet and scratches on wallpaper). The location is excellent - close to Millenium Park, theaters, restaurants. I did not use the amenities or try the restaurant. I would stay here again!"

The Chicago Hotel Collection - Magnificent Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Stunning room, lobby, and spectacular views from the rooftop lounge. That being said, room service could’ve been more attentive. We asked for body wash for our room, as it was out when we checked in. Even after calling the front desk, this small request went unanswered. Barring that, it was a good stay. BYOS - Bring Your Own Soup."
