Fairly clean, quiet hotel, there was a nice lobby. My room was new-fashioned with a king bed, the heating and a tub, loved it.

The hotel appeared to be stylish and I loved location and rooms. The venue was located in the middle of Chicago. Again, it was 3 miles from a premier natural-history museum.

The hotel was in the very central setting. Besides, the area was downtown, next to a skate park. We had an airy room with lovely bed, what else do you need for an excellent stay. A savoury breakfast, lots of meals. Staff were funny and the service was amazing!

Amazing new and updated room, respectful staff, public parking. We loved lovely food. The service was special, always with a smile. Complimentary drinks, strong wifi were a nice surprise. The airport was 9 miles away from here, brilliant location.

This hotel was useful base for exploring Chicago, appreciated it. Moreover, the private parking was great. Only 10 min walk to downtown. On-site restaurant Grant Park Bistro was a bonus, had dinner there...

Amazing room. The hotel was located not far from touristic places such as millennium park. Grant Park Bistro was 10 mins walk away. South Loop district deserves your attention❤❤
