Find Cheap Hotels in Uptown, IL

"Clean and well kept overall. Great Australian restaurant in the lobby. "

"I was very disappointed with my stay at the Congress Hotel. The room was in clear need of maintenance and updating. There were cracked tiles and damaged drywall, and the overall condition felt worn and neglected. The heating and air conditioning unit did not function properly, which made the room uncomfortable. The blanket provided had visible holes, and there were noticeable gaps under the door, allowing noise and light from the hallway to come through easily. Soundproofing between rooms was also extremely poor—it often sounded like neighboring guests were in the same room. Additionally, the space appears to have gone decades without meaningful updates, with heavy layers of old paint and an overall dated appearance. Unfortunately, the condition of the room significantly impacted the quality of my stay."

"Staff made a huge difference. So nice and clean! I will stay there again. Loved the view from our room too."

"Great spot in the shopping district. Good breakfast and nice to have the snacks and drinks for the happy hour time. "

"Great room and staff"

"No water view"

"Love it here! We stay here often when we come home to Chicago. Great location, fairly large rooms, clean and accessible. "

"All in all, it was an excellent experience with the exception of the water pressure. The hot water pressure was absolutely horrible."

"Some issues with the room and internet, had to switch rooms. The second room had a malfunctioning toilet fill valve, it would shut off due to friction, requiring me to pull the lid and jiggle it to fill. Some outlet's didn't work. Low hanging fruit that can be attended to can go a long way. Staff was friendly and professional at all times. Would definitely stay here again, but urge attention to detail. Also, have a daily Urban Experience Fee on the final bill that I have asked to get back. Not sure what an Urban Experience Fee means, no Urban Experience was offered outside of doing my thing, being a native Chicagoan. "
