This was a very nice quaint hotel. The only complaint I would have is I stayed on Halloween night and there seemed to be all of these young people running up and down the halls slamming doors, running up and down the stairs and yelling. I stayed at this hotel because I was running a 15k the next morning and needed my rest. I did not get any and was very disappointed. The front desk staff seemed like I was disturbing them whenever I had a question. They seemed to be more focused on whatever they were looking at on the screen in front of them than whatever was on my mind.

The hotel needs to be more specific with what the parking conditions are before you check in. Also it would be nice to be informed that parking was additional money. My room at home is bigger than the hotel rooms. There is enough room for a bed and the window is up to high to see out of. Also the "complimentary" breakfast is horrible. You get cereal and juice. I would not recommend this hotel as the money was more than what you get.

I stayed at the Majestic Hotel halloween night in preparation for a 15k the next morning. I really needed my rest but did not get it. I understand it was halloween night but there was no call for all of the door slamming, yelling up and down the halls or running up and down the stairs until 1 or 2 in the morning. You would have thought a school of kindergartners were staying there. And I never heard any hotel staff around attempting to tell people to keep it quiet. Overall the hotel was very lovely and I would stay there again, but I was greatly disappointed in the staff at the front desk. They did not seem to be interested in me or my needs rather were were more focused on whatever was on the sceen in front of them.

Located close to Wrigley and the Lake. Very walkable neighborhood, close to restaurants, etc. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We would certainly stay again.

Very quaint hotel and location and the room was decorated nicely and spacious. However, temperature control was non-existent and the bathroom was a postage stamp. When sitting on the toilet, either a doorknob or radiator was only 6" from your face. Parking was inconvenient. A nice property but I expected more.

The hotel was very convenient located. Walking distance from nice restaurants, public transportation and the lake. It was pretty much what I expected. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on hotels, since I was gonna go there to shower and crash. Not a luxury hotel, but the room was quiet, clean, and the staff was courteous, helpful, and friendly. I would definitely stay there again.

After my fourth stay at The Majestic Hotel in the last 10 years, I wouldn't stay anywhere else near Wrigley. The Majestic is located in a great neighborhood, just two blocks from the lake and just a few blocks from Wrigley, great entertainment and transportation routes. The staff is friendly and helpful. The rooms are in good condition and always clean. Continental breakfast is nice, but get there early for best selection.

The hotel had a wonderful old world upscale charm to it. My king room was very small but very clean and comfortable for 1 person. I do not recommend trying to fit another person in the room. The mini suite is the size of a normal hotel room and is recommended. The location is in a very quiet area close to lake shore drive, wrigley field, and boys town. Nice and quiet.

Easy to get anywhere from this lovely spot. Right by the lake and great places to eat. Wish there was a patio or at least a table outside.

The night lady at the desk when we checked in was quite rude and that set the tone for a bad stay but other than that location was great to wrigley field everyone else was helpful and nice room was always clean and area was quiet. The elevators were quite small I would not go in them

The hotel was an excellent value. Within a short cab ride of downtown and within walking distance of the lakeshore and Lakeview neighborhood with shops and restaurants. Hotel atmosphere was historic and comfortable. Jr. Suite was roomy. Bathroom was very clean.

The Majestic is not conveniently located if plan on walking to the main attractions. It worked beautifully though using public transportation. It is located on the north side about 5 blocks from Wrigley. There is a bus stop about 3/4 of a block from the hotel with frequent buses going to the museum campus and downtown. Bus passes can be bought at a grocery store a short walk from the hotel. This made it easy to get to the museums and the Magnificent Mile without dealing with parking and traffic. The suites have the nice touch of a TV in each part of the room making it easy to separate the kids section from adults if needed. If you book the junior suite, check with the hotel after booking as some have the sofa sleeper and other just a sofa. The staff was extremely helpful and polite. They knew the neighborhood well and could direct us to restaurants as well as what buses to take to get around. Overall a very good stay.

The room was pretty small (it was a room with only 1 queen bed pushed up against the wall), but very nice. The robes were a nice touch and staff was helpful.

We were only in town for an overnight so we could attend a Cubs game before heading home. The hotel was located in a quiet neighborhood only 4 blocks from Wrigley. Yes, as others have said the rooms are small, but for our purposes it was big enough. I don't personally see the need for a big hotel room for a weekend stay. The staff was extremely helpful and knowledgeable of the surrounding area. Convenience, Comfort, and Cleanliness are what I look for at the Majestic had all three.

The hotel was great esspecially if you want to be near boystown. The hotel staff was very nice and anything we needed, they accomodated. The air conditioner made noise but we never complained. Great Hotel and the cont. breakfast is wonderful

I arrived to Chicago on Saturday 7/25/2009 through Midway. The cab ride to the hotel was about $40.00. May I suggest you ask the cab driver before getting in if he/she knows where the hotel is. Our cabby got lost, so I paid him to learn the north side of Chicago! Upon arriving at the hotel, it was exceptionally well kept. The staff was very friendly and knowledgably of the area. The rooms were larger than expected and very clean. The king size bed and pillows were a little soft, but whose complaining. The neighborhood was is very well kept with tree lined shaded trees. Upper class clientele as far as I could tell. It is approximately 5 blocks to Wrigley field. Otherwise, it's about a $4.00 cab fare. It's a 10 minute drive to the Navy Pier costing about $12.00 for cab fare. If you wanted to take in the Sears Tower, it will cost you $17.00 for cab fare. If you rent a car, the cost for the garage is $22.00 a day. However, the staff will validate it upon your request. Parking is a premium, sort of like San Francisco. Only negative I saw is the cities 12% sales tax on everything. How in the world can anyone afford to live here with all these taxes and required permits. Overall I will stay here next year when the Astros are in town!

Great location. Friendly, professional staff. Well appointed rooms. Totally satisfied.

The hotel was great considering the cost an location. Room was small, but clean and modern. Loved the continental breakfast in the morning and the hotel was in walking distance to Wrigley field.

the hotel room was small... a bed, tv small desk(which was used as a night stand)and bathroom. the bed was most comfortable i have ever slept in for a hotel. The hotel stocked the fridge w/ drinks, and goodieson top cubs related and good sweets. I would do it again. we used for sleeping not partying. Great stay... very helpful staff

It was the best hotel i have ever stayed in. The service desk were always helpful and very friendly made the stay very enjoyable..

Older hotel, and room was small, but the location made it acceptable. Elevator was not working but was being repaired.

Excellent European style small boutique hotel. Elevator was out of order. Other than that, great hotel

had a great time. The great staff was very helpful and it was located near the stain station!

This is a beautiful hotel in downtown Chicago area, very reasonable for the price shown here on Hotels.com. The staff is very friendly and they allow for third party billing. The rooms are small but very comfortable and very clean. Guest should be aware that this hotel is 100% none smoking, so smokers beware. I don't smoke but was out the evening with friends that did smoke and because I returned to my room smelling of smoke, I got a very unpleasant surprise the next day charged to my credit card in an amount 3 times what I paid for the room. There was no mention of this at check in. Also, note that the hotel does not have street or its own parking, you must use a parking garage a block away and there is a separate charge for that. Other than these discrepancies, which I intend to fight, my stay here was one of the best I have ever had.

This was the best deal in town. It's a beautiful old building in a great neighborhood, close to restaurants and the lake. The staff was great, the room was clean and the bed comfortable. A nearby parking garage offers a decent deal on overnight parking (street parking is difficult) and a health club offers free membership to guests of the hotel. The elevator did not work, but I usually take the stairs anyway.

If your looking for a place to stay close to Wrigley Field you can't beat it. All you have to do is turn the corner and your looking at it, definetely within walking distance. If you want to get a cab to go into town GOOD LUCK! the hotel staff wouldn't call for us. They said go to the corner and flag one down. That didn't work! We ended up having to walk to the train sation and ride the train in.

Great hotel with warm charm and friendly staff. Loved the Junior Suite.

This hotel was a lovely surprise! Convenient to Wrigley, plenty of restaurants nearby. Neighborhood clean and friendly. Will book there again!

We stayed at the Majestic for a trip to Wrigley and you couldn't ask for a better location. We visited the many close-by bars and restaurants and were very happy with the diversity and fun atmosphere. The hotel itself was well decorated, and the lobby containing the free continental breakfast (well stocked and delicious, also exceeded expectations) was very cozy and inviting. As indicated by other reviews there is a little street noise, but that doesn't bother me and the elevator was being repaired which wasn't a huge deal, except we were on the 3rd floor. Even so, a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend. Forgot to mention, we didn't take advantage but there was a train stop 10 minutes away that can take you anywhere in the city.

It is a very nice hotel. We were concerned when we first got there as they said the elevator was down for repairs, but they put us on the second floor. We had a little problems getting the heat going well--radiators and a wall unit. We were very happy and would stay again.

This was a really great place to stay - close to Wrigley field and the bus line. The room was very clean and the beds were great. Unfortunately, we were on the 3rd floor and the elevator was broken. Not so great for my 77 year old mom. Would have been nice to know that ahead of time. No coffee maker in room - that bummed her out too. Staff was great though, very helpful. I'd go back.

Our first room smelled like smoke, so the moved us to another room with no problem. We didn't spend much time in the room, but it was comfortable, good linens and everything, including the window worked. No temp control in the room that we could find, but we could control temp with window. Elevator didn't work, but we are stairs people anyway.

Beautiful lobby, very clean, comfortable but small, nice room. The staff was friendly and helpful. Be aware that the elevator doesn't work and you have to park your car in the parking garage around the corner. Also, the T.V. setup wasn't easy to work. But overall, it was close to our daughter who lives in Roscoe Village, and a nice place to stay. We will stay there again.

I enjoyed the location and the hotel staff. Unfortunately, parking was not included and also the couch advertised as a "sleeper" was hardly made for one person to rest on.

We only stayed one night. I liked everything. Inside secure parking around corner. We took showers before bed instead of in the morning. Good thing because no hot water in the morning. I like cold showers in the morning. :-)

I found the Majestic, a fine older hotel, the second of 3 sister boutique hotels in the area that I've stayed in, to be very charming...the linens were great, the water hot and the location near restaurants and galleries. I appreciated the free upgrade to a suite which was offered without question, although the only real downside of my stay was the broken elevator which won't be repaired till April, making the trip up 3 flights of stairs (the ground floor has three floors above it) to the top floor quite taxing, especially since I was just recovering from a back ailment. The suite had two small refridgerators, only one of which was particularly cold. Overall I would recommend the hotel, although if you don't like stairs, the staff will gladly carry your bags or you could request a lower floor. Very quiet location...I'll stay here again.
