The Chicago Hotel Collection Ambassador Gold Coast

10/10 Excellent

"Do away with the drink/meal tix...hassle. Excellent everywhere else-"

Hilton Chicago/Magnificent Mile Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Did a turn and burn stay here (checked in Saturday and checked out Monday) and had a pleasant visit. The front desk customer service was A+. My only 2 feedback are: the valet attendant should be more attentive. I waited 10 mins while the valet attendant was chatting away with a co-worker and then started laughing with I assume a customer. I had to politely interrupt to get service. 2nd feedback: I was on the 23rd floor and soon as I stepped off the elevator, the hallway and room had a sour/mildew odor."

Freehand Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"I booked the hotel originally for the location. The building was secure and although the room was small, it was good for my purposes. The building, including the rooms was clean, although there was no fridge available. The lobby bar had great cocktails ,it was a fun place to chill outside of the room."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Chicago Downtown Magnificent Mile

8/10 Good

"The location of the property and the staff were excellent. There was only one elevator working and took a long time to get up or down with everyone trying to use it. The room itself was old, the couch had a big rip and the shower tub had a big stain and the faucet was barely working."

The Royal Sonesta Chicago River North

10/10 Excellent

"The staff at Royal Sonesta made the stay top tier. The room was very clean and comfortable. Great location in River North for exploring downtown on foot. There’s no microwave in the room -only on the first floor which is inconvenient but not worth changing the 5 stars I would give my overall stay"
