Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Carlton Inn is very close to Midway; a great location if you need to catch an early morning flight. The room was decent and clean; although not extravagant. What set this hotel apart was the outstanding customer service displayed by the hotel staff. They were so very helpful, and went out of their way to make the stay as pleasant as possible. Free […] shuttle service and parking are plusses. Read more

Checked in pretty late before a morning flight from Midway. Nice staff at front desk helped with food options at that hour. Breakfast is good and from Dunkin Donuts so better than average. The shower was good, room was clean and I felt safe in and around the hotel. There was also a security guard in the front office.

Clean and comfy. Not lovely surrounding neighborhood, but train one block away and close to midway. Very helpful staff and great restaurant recommendations! Especially the polish restaurant! Wonderfullly memorable! Good price and value. Newer renovations. Would stay again.

Nothing fancy here, but for one night to catch an early flight it works. 99$ and 7 bucks a day to park . Free shuttle to midway and $10 cab ride back .

Visited Chicago for the weekend. We felt very welcomed. As soon as we arrived, the receptionist gave us a sheet of recommended sites to see, as well as directions to them from the hotel. The orange line is just 2 blocks away, and though we walked to the stop every day, they repeatedly offered us use of their 24-hour van shuttle service to get to the […] stop. Even as we left, they told us to call them during the day if we needed anything at all. Very welcoming! Also the room itself was entirely sufficient :) Read more

Pleasantly surprised, The hotel was very clean and the staff there was wonderful. They were very friendly and willing to help with anything.We woke in the morning to find the shuttle already being warmed up for us and some breakfast waiting.

Very helpful staff. Breakfast available at 4:30 am for very early departures. Waited only 10 minutes to be picked up during our return. Vacation travelers should consider this property. Room was very clean.

Satisfied my need to have a low priced bed near the airport for an early morning flight, but that's about all.

Over all our stay there was great. The hotel staff were more than friendly, they were there to answer all of our questions. They picked us up from the l-train in Chicago and to us to the airport the next morning very early and it was free of charge. And when we needed a place to get some thing to eat the had a whole list of places already printed up […] with how far they were from the hotel. If we ever go back to Chicago again to stay over night we will stay there. Read more

Very nice and helpful staff. Free transport from airport to hotel and back. Close to mass transit lines. A little over priced for age of facility.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

A one-night stay on the way home. We returned our rental car and rode the shuttle to the hotel and then back to the airport for our early flight the next day, very convenient.

THIS LAST STAY AT THIS HOTEL WAS GRADE A+. I STILL FEEL COMPLETELY TAKEN CARE OF IN EVERY ASPECT OF MY HOTEL STAY WHEN AT THE CARLTON INN MIDWAY. EVERTHING IS ALWAYS ON POINTS. MANY DOWNTOWN HOTELS COULD LEARN ALOT FROM THIS MIDWAY HOTEL. I HIGHLY SUGGEST STAYING AT THE CARLTON INN MIDWAY WHEN IN CHICAGO. MS. LAWSON

our stay was amazing. We had qualms about the hotel being a bit far away from the Loop, but the moment we arrived at the hotel, the people at the reception gave us a map of the city, a CTA schedule, and the option of complementary pick up and drop off to the Train Station close-by, including tips on rates, routes etc. They also had pamphlets of Chicago […] Attractions and places to visit etc which were of great help and assistance. Breakfast was also great. Over all, a comfortable stay, Read more

Good hotel for the money. When I drove through the neighborhood and pulled into the parking lot, I said to myself, "Oh, boy, what a dump" but was very pleasantly surprised when I entered my room, which was in good shape with updated amenities. The staff are professional, courteous and helpful. It didn't take very long to drive to McCormick, and on the […] return trip the hotel was easy to find again. Breakfast was good, there were several options including Dunkin' Donuts sausage/egg/cheese bagels, one of my favorites when I'm on the go. Overall, good value for the money, I would stay there again.

Not fancy, but nice enough. Great service! I had a 6am flight so they left breakfast out for us at 4am. It's in the Midway area, so not a super swanky area, but it was a great deal. The free shuttle helps as well, they'll pick you up at the air port or the 'El' stops. Great hotel if you must use Midway.

The shuttle service was great! They even took us to dinner and picked us up since we arrived by train.

We got stuck in Chicago due to a delayed flight and ended up booking a room at the Carlton Inn. The hotel offers an airport shuttle, which is nice after traveling all day. The driver was especially nice and recommended a really good pizza place in the area that delivers. At arrival, the desk clerk also gave us a list of food places that were close and […] that also delivered. They also had menus of these places, which was nice. It was nice not to worry about finding food later in the evening. I would highly recommend this place! Read more

The hotel staff were very helpful and knowledgeable. They were able to drop me off at the train station and bring my luggage to me when I returned to a different location. The rooms were clean, modern and comfortable. I would highly recommend.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Booked this hotel based on the positive reviews of other visitors and was not disappointed. Arrived on Thanksgiving and was given a list of restaurants nearby and which was open and until what time. Got a second list of the normal restaurants, distance from hotel and hours. The hotel shuttle even offers free service to/from these restaurants. Was there […] on business and please to discover the offered a shuttle service to/from McCormick for $20 - much less than what you'd pay for a taxi and and only double the cost of the subway/train, but MUCH faster and less stressful. There were only two possible departure times to McCormick, but the shuttle would generally pick you up at any time you wanted. GREAT! The hotel was in very good condition with clean, comfortable rooms, comcast cable with tons of channels, and reliable reasonably fast internet. Was great to also have a refrigerator, microwave oven and coffee maker in the room. Breakfast was bagels, donuts, yogurt, fruit, and sausage & egg bagel sandwiches. Coffee was generally available all the time in the lobby. I flew into Midway because of the free shuttle service there and was pleased to find a much quieter and more pleasant airport than O'hare. Special mention also goes to the friendly and helpful employees like Nicole at the front desk and shuttle driver Steve (though everyone was nice). Normally without a car this would be a difficult hotel to stay at, but with the good shuttle and plentiful information it was a breeze. Read more

The people at the front desk were very helpful, accomodating and pleasant. The rooms were clean. The bed was well worn but still OK for comfort. Breakfast was fine, although the selection was limited. Certainly for the price, I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wanted to be near Midway.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The staff was friendly, professional and very helpful! Needs were anticipated. Information about local restaurants, as well as transportation to them was provided. Also rides to the train station and airport. Would definitely stay again!

It was nothing fancy, but it was super clean, and convenient and the staff were wonderful! The van took guests to and from the airport and local subway station so getting around was no problem. They also take people to local restaurants. However, it is also easy to walk to the subway station and some local restaurants if one prefers. The staff gave […] maps and directions for getting around the city. They sell multi-day bus/subway passes a MUST if you expect to travel a lot in the city; a good value and hard to get except at a few locations. I highly recommend this little gem of a motel for any visitor to Chicago. Once again, the staff were all WONDERFUL. Read more

Used this motel to stay in overnight, after arriving at midnite in Midway airport. The area seems sketchy at midnight, but room was clean and bed was comfortable. Security guard walking the premises. Will use it again if have the same situation. We drove our rental car- really close, but they have a 24 hr shuttle. The managing owner was very helpful […] and on the premises in the morning.

My flight got in quite late and the hotel came and picked me up within 10 minutes. The next morning they shuttled me to the L train without much wait. I was there for the marathon and they had pre printed packets for spectators. Everyone was very nice and helpful.

We accidentally left a pair of expensive headphones in our room. When we discovered them missing, we immediately called the hotel. They reported that nothing had been turned in. There is no doubt that the headphones were left there. There is also no doubt that whomever cleaned the room after we left got one heck of a bonus. Posted next to the door in […] the room is a notice that all linenes are inventoried and that any missing items will be billed to our credit card. I intend to send the hotel a bill for our headphones, though I seriously doubt we will receive compensation for our loss. We will be making frequest business trips to Chicago over the next two years. We will not be staying at Carlton Inn Midway. Read more

Even though the hotel was a bit dated and the rooms were small, the staff more than made up for any shortcomings. We attended the Chicago Marathon to cheer our daughter on and the staff supplied a comprehensive packet of information for everyone staying there. They had a map of the race, detailed transportation information, suggestions for places to […] eat near the hotel and more. They also supply a free shuttle service to and from Midway Airport and conveniently sell Chicago Transit Authority passes. The price was reasonable and every visit includes a warm greeting by the owner's dog, Buddy! We'll definitely keep this place in mind whenever we visit Chicago again. Read more

We had a very positive experience at Carlton Inn. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. While the CTA Orange Line is a very easy walking distance, the shuttle worked very smoothly. Downtown was just a 20 minute ride away. The continental breakfast had lots of variety from fruit to sandwiches to bagels. This was an ideal location for our family […] to stay. We'd do it again.

The ladies at the front counter were extremely helpful and the dog in the front lobby is very cute. I would definitely stay again.

As the title states, this is a story of pros and cons. The minuses first: The surrounding neighborhood is a busy urban environment with considerable congestion and one sometimes hears traffic noise and airplane traffic. Some of the rooms are in a narrow alleyway behind another row of rooms in front of them, and these rooms are quite small. The rooms […] in the first row (closer to the street) are bigger. The plusses: It is very close and convenient to both Midway and the train station, with an on-call shuttle to both places. One can even walk to the train station in about five minutes. The breakfast is a plus unless one requires an all-out hot breakfast. It consists of coffee, juice, yogurt, pastries, and bagel sandwiches. The outstanding thing about the lodging is the staff - very helpful, cooperative, and friendly. The price, in comparison to other lodgings close to Midway, is reasonable. Overall, I would stay there again if flying in and out of Midway, but I would request one of the larger rooms closer to the street. Read more

Cannot say enough about how helpful the staff was for us. Arriving early in Chicago at the airport, our room was available for check in so we could drop off luggage and head into the city.

If you are coming into Midway and plan to spend most of your time in the Loop, this hotel is a wonderful bargain. The orange line of the El is right around the corner and about a 20 minute ride into town. The hotel's shuttle will take you to and from the airport and the El station, and the driver even offered to take us to dinner in the neighborhood. […] The rooms are newly renovated and nearly immaculate. Most importantly, the desk staff and drivers are friendly and helpful at all times. Add that in with the best rates in the area and this was the perfect bargain hotel for us. Read more
