Fairmont Chicago at Millennium Park
"The staff at Gold Club. Mandan geninely treats you like your guest at her own home. We were at the hotel for Chicago Marathon; and their soecial athlete breakfast and attention to details were very helpful."
The Wade
"Great location for those that want to be downtown with easy access to everything!"
The Godfrey Hotel Chicago
"The hotel was nice, and the location was great. However, the property could use a little updating and more attention to detail, especially with the bathroom amenities. The hallways were also quite noisy, with a lot of partying going on. I certainly don’t mind people having a good time, but it did get a bit loud. Overall, it was an okay stay, but I felt it was overpriced for what was offered. There were other hotels nearby at about the same price that appeared to be substantially nicer. Not a bad experience, just not quite worth the price."
Club Quarters Hotel, Central Loop, Chicago
"Awesome Location, free expresso machine"
Eurostars Magnificent Mile
"Hands-down, always my favorite place to stay when I am in Chicago. I’ve been staying here for years. It’s essentially located so you can walk everywhere to the magnificent mile to the Gold Coast Beach to all of the shopping. Restaurants are right next to it. There is a true food, kitchen and a soul cycle right next to it as well and Tal nightclub is also right next-door. The staff is absolutely amazing in the rooms are luxurious for a great price."
