Central United States Luxury Holidays

Staff was excellent. Able to get me in my room early and upgraded it. Parking was quick and easy. Everything is within walking distance. Room was clean and well kept.

Excellent all around

Great place to stay.

Excellent hotel, my only complaint would be the Peninsula food service. We ate at the Shanghai Terrace our first night on site and honestly the food was only 2 stars. Specifically the appetizers were minuscule, and 90% pastry dough. Whatever filling was supposed to be inside all the dough largely wasn’t. The whole Peking duck was arranged haphazardly on the plate, the skin was not really crispy, and the taste experience was completely lackluster. As to the main dining room the service continues, as always, to be erratic and frequently slow. Food is sometimes served hot, sometimes not. The room service on our checkout day was absolutely abysmal. We both ordered eggs Benedict and both orders were served not a degree above room temperature. The hollandaise sauce was so cold it had solidified. There really is no excuse for this. And unfortunately we did not have time to return the order as we had a plane to catch and we were running a bit behind. For an otherwise professional hotel the food service and quality is sadly lacking. It leads one to believe that the F&B manager could be a nephew, a cousin, or some other family member need of a job.

It was walking distance to the Chicago Theater. The room was clean. Staff was nice. Everything was great except the outlets in the room. I tried several different ways/outlets to charge electronics but the connection wouldn’t work.

The attention to detail of overall service was lacking from our prior experience with the Sofitel in Chicago and LA.
