- Nicole NormanNovember 4, 2013Special shout out to the bellman Greg aka showtime. He helped make the most of our trip! From places to eat, showing us an amazing jazz club not to far away! I can't wait to come back to this hotel!
Christina RNovember 16, 2012Front desk staff was very friendly and the Bellman is seriously the nicest Bellman I've ever encountered in all of my travels. Great area and super soft sheets. We will definitively be back!Upvoted 4 days ago
Nas LewisMarch 24, 2013Such a great experience. My husband and I enjoyed our stay. The bell man Greg aka Show Time was the nicest. Amazing hotel. Beautiful rooms!! Will be back!!Upvoted 5 days ago
Nick RossDecember 9, 2012Prices are great, rooms are great, staff was very nice and willing to go above and beyond for us. We will definitely be back everytime we come to Chicago.
Needha Boutte-QueenFebruary 22, 2012Awesome HISTORIC hotel. Staff VERY friendly. Asian/Thai restaurant a block away - serves great food at an even better price! For a road worn traveler, this is a total Package deal!!
Ask for a quiet room and eat your breakfast at Starbucks. Breakfast of the hotel is really cheap (only coffee, fruits and muffins).
Visit J-Foxx (Jaime) and Showtime (Greg) downstairs at Bar Blake for a great laugh, fun conversation and a tasty beverage.
Roy HDecember 12, 2012Take advantage of the free drink coupon- visit the lobby bar. I'm absolutely in love with Jamie (J-Foxx)
Liz RattraySeptember 29, 2015Nice hotel, but I couldn't shut off the air conditioning so my room was near freezing for two nights.
Don't pay the extra for a King Suite, Big sitting room but smaller bedroom. King room has no fridge, that's an extra $25 per night!
Nice rooms, good prices. Location awesome, near The Loop. Complimentary breakfast discontinued though.
Nathan RodgersJune 25, 2011Per accommodating staff. Very nice rooms with great views of the city. I will be back!
Claire CalawaySeptember 3, 2016Rooms nice,we got stuck in the elevator for 30 min. I know this happens but what made it horrible was the bellhop kept adding people(13)we could barely move then we got stuck! Staff handled it poorly
Other guests feel that they are owed something more than others. These are the people who paid more than they can afford to stay in a 'classy' hotel in the inner loop. Ugh.
If you arrive early you can pay $50 and check in sooner or check your bags until 3pm
Diego RufoMarch 29, 2011You can rest here for a really good price... and breakfast is included!! Read more- the bell man greg is probably the nicest person I ever met !
Ryan BordewickJanuary 1, 2012Please inform your guests that you have bumpped them before asking them to park their cars.
Ayman AyashNovember 23, 2014My neck still aches till now... Expensive, no breakfast, super bad internet, but good location... Not worth the money paid
Munder AbuaishaNovember 16, 2014Don't recommend it, very expensive, breakfast not included, beds not comfortable, but friendly staff, overall i don't recommend it.
JC AbbruzziJuly 23, 2010Staff is nice but needs a lot of training. The room was nice enough, but really dirty. I expected more from a hotel at this price.
Adam ButtsDecember 5, 2010No dedicated valet. No movies in room. Very few amenities. Very little room service. If you didn't get your room cheap, go somewhere else.
