Affinia Chicago - Chicago 41.89574, -87.6227

We booked this hotel because of its location, the size of the hotel and the quality promised on Hotels.com and it was all true. We upgraded to a suite on the 22nd floor, for a very small cost and we had a wonderful overnight and night on the town. Remember to visit the bar on the 29th floor. Great views of the city any time of the year.

Very nice modern hotel in the heart of Chicago, right where you want to be. Friendly, helpful staff and a stylish room. I think the parking is high - even for Chicago and the Internet should be free for the price but I return every trip so it must be worth it!

We took advantage of a 50% off sale and had a great stay. I'd highly recommend the Affinia--very comfortable rooms, sleek, modern design and a great location. The only disadvantage is the price of parking, although there is a garage just down the street which is a bit cheaper.

As noted above the hotel was otstanding in services, location, friendliness, cleanliness, decoration, room size. Everything was absolutely oerfect except for one tiny detail. After staying there for 7 days the last night while waiting for friends at the lobby I approached the front desk and asked about the possibility about making a local phone call from the desk, the people attending the front desk where rude which I found surprising. They told me that all phone calls where to be made from the bedrooms, regardless of any policies the hotel may have what startled me was how unfriendly the staff acted. Besides that everything in the hotel was perfect.

The Affinia hotel in Chicago has a great location just a few strides from the Magnificent Mile and a five minute walk from the lake shore. The staff at this Hotel are very friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. Everything advertised in the brochure was available. I have no hesitation in recommending the Affinia. Thanks.

Very helpful and friendly staff. The room and bathroom were large, clean, comfortable, well-decorated. Location of the hotel is very convenient to Michigan Ave, Northwestern hospital, restaurants, the lakeshore and more. Safe and secure too.

Fantastic location and the friendliest staff ive ever come across! nothing was too much trouble for them and they really went out of their way to help! Next door to the famous chicago pizzeria which I would recommend too! Lovely big clean rooms and a beautiful rooftop bar! would give it 5 stars!!!!

The hotel staff was extremely friendly and were always there if we needed any information or any amenities for our room. The rooftop bar has a great view, an awesome bartender, and very tasty martinis to match! Our room was very clean and comfortable. The decor is very modern looking and up to date. The only thing to note is to not make local telephone calls from the room as you will be charged. Other than that I recommend this hotel to any and everyone and I will definitely be back!

The Affinia was really an outstanding place to stay in Chicago. Being less than a block to the Magnificent Mile and only a few blocks to the Lake was terrific. The room was well appointed, and a very nice layout and size for the price. Some of the extras available (six kinds of pillows!) were a nice touch. My only hope is that they can do something to lessen the blow of the parking fee--at $48 per day, it felt a little steep, even by NYC standards. Otherwise, a very enjoyable stay. I'd definitely plen on staying at the Affinia on my next trip to Chicago.

Perfect location right next to Gino's East. Easy walking distance "the mile." Roof top bar was cool, and had great city views. This was the first in a long time where everything worked in the room, the shower and sinks drained too.

My recent stay was wonderful, including the great staff. There was one small problem: The corners of the shower had black mildew. Otherwise, the room and bathroom were spotless. I mentioned this on check out, and was told that the problem would be corrected.

Christopher the Consierge was absolutely brilliant! The Hotel was really nice, although the air conditioning was really noisy sometimes. The Hotel did however change my booking from two double beds to a queen and a large sofa bed. Although the room was more than adequate I was a bit put out as I had specifically booked two double beds! The front of house were not very helpful in this matter, but did offer us a free breakfast. Overall a lovely hotel, well situated to all the great shops,bars and restaraunts etc. Again a big thank you to Christopher who made are stay more enjoyable by his recommendations!

Great location, the only downside being right next to a hospital meant ambulance sirens. But nothing loud enough to wake you from sleep. the staff was very friendly and professional. Elevator can be very slow during peak times. On Sunday morning, my two children walked down 26 flights faster than my elevator ride.

Helpful staff, neat, urban-feeling rooms, great location! Excellent choice for the price!

The Affinia is a fantastic hotel and in a great location. The staff was friendly and the room was supurb. The views from the room and the open rooftop bar were the best that I have experienced in a Chicago hotel. I will not stay at another hotel and will recommend the hotel to everyone.

We booked this hotel b/c of a special sale hotels.com was offering. And thank god we found the deal! Affinia was one of the most amazing and chic hotels we ever have stayed at. The room was beautiful, the bathroom was very posh and the bed was unbelievably comfortable. The next time we go to Chicago we can only hope that we will find another amazing deal for Affinia! We loved it!

Everything was great except for the air conditioning. Not great when the temperature is 90 degrees outside.

Hotel staff is very friendly, helpful, and the accommodations are perfect. Short walk to Michigan Ave.

I have recommended this hotel to everyone since returning from my stay in Chicago. Convenient location, wonderful, clean room. Fabulous staff. Just as nice as any "big corporate" hotel, with a better price and great service, and smaller....less hustle and bustle. Quiet, quaint, but still chic and modern. Stay here.....you won't be disappointed. Only caveat (and it's a small one....) the elevators are slow. So be patient, or better yet, take the stairs and walk off that deep dish pizza! I will head straight to the Affinia on all subsequent stays in Chicago.

Very comfortable, smart and central - a great choice. Sure the lifts were a slight pain, but its really not a big deal. The roof top cafe is swish, if a tadge pricey.

Great hotel. Very attentive staff and new modern rooms. Great location in heart of downtown Chicago. Would highly recommend this hotel to others and will stay here again.

great location to trendy shopping and dining friendly staff

Hotel is located 1/2 block from Michigan Avenue shopping, two blocks from happening Rush Street, three blocks to Lake Michigan. Room was quiet, clean, modern. Parking garage directly across from hotel. Will definitely stay here again.

My husband and I stayed at the Affinia 7/16 - 7/18. The hotel's location is close to the Magnificent Mile and John Hancock Tower, which was very convienent for us since this was our first trip to Chicago. The lobby and room had a hip and contemporary feel and the beds and pillows were quite comfortable. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. I only have one complaint about the hotel that I would like to report. The hotel has 29 floors and only two very small elevators that go to rooms 8 - 29. Keep in mind the 29th floor is a rooftop bar which gets pretty busy in the evening that is open to the public. The cleaning staff also uses the same elevators which adds more time to wait for an elevator. Overall our experience at the Affinia was a pleasant stay in a happening location.

The hotel and the staff were wonderful. Great location right off Michigan next to Gino's East. We will go again.

Beautiful, clean hotel with knowledgable and friendly staff!!

Spent two nights in one of the "junior suites" (I think it might have been a free upgrade!?). It was gorgeous. Plenty of space and the ambiance was perfect. I'd definitely stay there again! Oh yes the restaurant had fairly good food, and the skybar was incredible as well!

We loved this hotel! One block from great shopping on Michigan Ave. and directly next door to one of the best Pizza places in Chicago, Gino's East. The staff was very friendly and the service was excellent. Great room, very comfortable bed, giant shower (6 people could fit in), hip decor. We would absolutely stay there again!

Excellent hotel - good large rooms - new furnishings. Fun rooftop bar, good small restaurant, excellent location.

The Affinia was a great place to say for the price I paid. It was conviently located within 1 block of the Magnificent Mile. Gino's East pizza was next door so if you wanna grab a bite to eat, it is right next door. Also, there is a restaurant in the hotel, even though we didn't go, it was nice to have that option as well. One of the coolest things about the hotel was the bar on the roof. It was really classy and cozy at the same time. It had a nice atmosphere.

A big surprise given the rate we got. Hotel room was spacious, clean, allergy free (and NO moldy/musty smell), very tastefully decorated and quiet. Perfect location to walk / water taxi anywhere we wanted to go. Service was impeccable AND RESPONSIVE. VIew awesome esp. from roof bar/cafe. Best overall hotel I've ever stayed in in Chicago.

This is our favorite hotel in Chicago and we've stayed here 4-5 times now in the last year. It's comfy, modern and has a quirky sense of humor to it. All of the Affinia hotels we've seen pretty much do. Great location, wonderfully attentive service. Loyal customer to the Affinia right here. Keep up the good work!

I liked the modern design of the hotel. The location was perfect. The restaurant (C-House) was pretty bad. We had brunch there and it was not good. Go elsewhere. The elevators are EXTREMELY slow. The conceierge was often not around so getting info was difficult at times. The room itself was big for the price. Overall, I reccommend but not it was just fair.

the newly renovated rooms are gorgeous with one of the nicest bathrooms of any hotel. great restaurant and rooftop bar, great service, fantastic location!

There was only one working elevator, which made for very long wait times.

Located, just off the magnificent mile this hotel offers every you would expect in a good establishment. However during our stay we found some of the reception staff quite unfriendly and the lifts to the higher floors (8th to 29th) were "experiencing long wait times". We were there for four nights and no visible engineering effort had been made to repair this. Numerous times we took 17 floors of steps or ended using the service elevator.
