10.0 Wonderful
Pros:Room, Location
B
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:Suite type room for affordable price. Wonderful access to Michigan Ave, Art Museum, and river. Breakfast included was great.
Cons:Charging $300 for potential incidental usage is exorbitant.
A
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:That shower in the king room was to die for.
Cons:No air vents in the bathroom.
A
7.1 Good
Pros:The staff was excellent. Very helpful, respectful, and pleasant. The doorman, Mark, had exceptional guest service skills. I felt completely taken care of.
Cons:The room was hot and muggy, which didn't change despite having the thermostat set as low as it would go. The elevators took FOREVER. It was not uncommon to wait 10-15 minutes once calling the elevator to have it arrive. Food in the hotel was fine, nothing special and expensive.
J
7.4 Good
Pros:Great downtown location
Cons:An elevator was down for a major overhaul, fine. One of the three remaining was getting stuck on floors for extended periods of time, and we heard it even fell four floors while someone was on it. Customer’s safety is clearly not a number one concern for this hotel.
A
8.5 Very good
Pros:Great price and location.
Cons:The bathroom was not clean, there was a previous guest's hair all over the shower walls. It was pretty disgusting.
A
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:Have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The reviews worried me but this hotel is amazing and the staff is very helpful. We arrived late (1:30 am) and was given one of their vacation rentals and were told we would need to move to another room the next morning. They upgraded us to a corner room suite for our full stay. The view of the river was perfect!
Cons:Facing the Trump Tower.......
A
7.7 Good
Pros:Riverfront central location next to Michigan Avenue. The view outside the window of the river is great, Trump Tower is a matter of taste. The gym is fantastic with nice equipment, a great view and it is empty in the mornings. Hoyt's is a nice bar.
Cons:No minibar or snacks for kids. Big complimentary Bottled water, creamer and sugar for coffee are prerequisites for a grand hotel. Parking is tight even with valet parking with congestion outside the hotel.
A
6.5 Okay
Pros:Perfect location, easy access to shopping, restaurants and museums
Cons:A/C unit blew like a box fan and was quite annoying and not adjustable, toilet clogged and took time for staff to assist, we had a rental car and parking onsite was convenient but outrageously priced...in hindsight I would have booked elsewhere.
A
7.7 Good
Pros:Everything in the room will be good! view is the best!!! Location is the best of the best!
Cons:When we check in, nobody tell us about breakfast, it is not include. When we check out we we're waiting car about an hour, the gay on the destination almost lost our parking ticket!
