Le Méridien Essex Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was amazing and very helpful, gave us a lot of great recommendations for places to check out and also upgraded our room for free. The room was very nice, a little tight but that is expected in Chicago. Bathroom was perfect great shower, amazing view from room and bathroom window. Very conveniently located, quick walk from the train. Highly recommend and would stay again"

HI Chicago Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"This modern hostel is located in the heart of downtown’s Loop neighborhood and is stocked with everything you need to have an epic Chicago adventure. They have free Wi-Fi, lots of lounge space where you can hang out and meet fellow travelers, a fully stocked guest kitchen, and tons of local tips to help you explore the coolest neighborhoods in the city. When you leave HI Chicago, I promise you’ll love this city as much as I did!"

Hotel Riu Plaza Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is absolutely lovely! Immaculate in every area, with very helpful and friendly staff. The room was perfectly appointed. The bathroom door doubled as a door to the toilet and I want one of those in my house! The rain shower with a wand had great water pressure and temperature. I'm not a fan of open showers and this one was as expected; it's chilly when you turn off the water and there is not ceiling fan in the bathroom to take away the steam. Otherwise, the bathroom had a double sink with nice storage below. The bedroom offered plenty of space with a desk, dresser, nightstand, dresser for my suitcase and a couch. You need to insert your key to use the lights and heater/ac, which is an energy saver. The included buffet breakfast is off the charts delicious and offers everything you can wish. Overall this was a wonderful place to stay, right in the middle of all the action on the Magnificent Mile, and I would definitely stay there again."

Palmer House a Hilton Hotel

4/10 Poor

"This is the second and the last time I stay at the Palmer. I like the proximity to certain landmarks and the beds were comfy but other than that, the bathroom wasn't clean, there was a lot of hair in the tub, the shower faucet handle was filled with black scum on the inside. There was also a piece undone metal on the bottom of the vanity that scraped my kid's foot. There was no complimentary coffee/tea which added to the disappointment. I was too tired to ask for a different room with 2 kids and having to repack the bags."
