Top St. James Cathedral Hotel Reviews

River Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to travel!"

Congress Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Tina in cafe at breakfast was awesome! Made my day! See you-all next time!"

Hyatt Regency Chicago

8/10 Good

"Staff was great. View room was nice and quiet. Just know this is a very busy hotel. Elevators were an adventure."

Warwick Allerton - Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"The Warwick Hotel is absolutely my favorite new discovery in Chicago. The hotel itself is beautiful, and everyone who works there is extremely friendly and goes out of their way to help with whatever you might need. As with most big cities, the rooms are just a bit on the small side, but are luxuriously appointed, very clean and have everything one might need. I travel frequently, and never sleep well at hotels. I can honestly say that I slept the entire night through all of the three nights that I stayed there. Thankfully, there were no late-night door slammers to be had during my entire stay. It was exceptionally quiet. Aside from the hotel itself, the next best thing is its can’t-beat location. We never had to take a cab anywhere because everything you need is within walking distance: Shopping along the Magnificent Mile, Navy Pier, Art Institute, numerous parks along the lake and dozens and dozens of world-class restaurants from expensive to shockingly inexpensive. As I specifically went to Chicago to attend several Cubs games, I was pleasantly surprised to find the subway stop just 2 blocks away and a short, 15 minute straight shot to Wrigley Field. I honestly hated to leave. I really can’t recommend the Warwick enough and really look forward to my next stay there."
