Top South Evanston Hotel Reviews

The Chicago Hotel Collection - Magnificent Mile

10/10 Excellent

"NA"

Congress Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful location - we were right across from Buckingham Fountain. From the 11th floor, we had a great view of the lake. Old style elegance. The a/c - heating system is of a different era. I would not book a lake side room during the height of the summer - I don't think the system could keep up."

The Wade

8/10 Good

"Why book here? LOCATION and competitive price. Why not? If you care about hospitality. This isn't going to be the place. Some of the front desk staff were impatient and border line dismissive. No decaf, despite a sign saying it was available. Just plan to go to Starbucks about a block away for coffee of any quality. Check in evening staff, told us breakfast would be served (Marriott member) and then we weren't given the magic card. Morning staff said we didn't qualify and we got the signal NOT to bother them with unreasonable questions. Our room was next to elevator and I was glad I had my ear plugs. No coffee in rooms. Weird kinda sensual picture of red lips predominant art in room... not family friendly or sensitive to women's modern issues. Views of lake were great! Easy walking location to see Lake Shore Drive and Many other great attractions. LOVED the beach and lake. It is amazingly clear water. Just have realistic expectations that this is a place to sleep and the staff may not care or are burned out. Great service oriented humans are expensive. You're not paying for that here."
