It was very quiet which was a pleasant surprise for a city hotel. The staff was courteous and attentive. The bed and pillows were comfortable, and the room had a large armoire with sufficient number of hangers for clothing. Overall, I felt this hotel offered excellent value in comparison to other hotels within a few blocks of it (I wasn't looking for a hotel with a spa or a lounge, but wanted something clean, comfortable, and quiet with good service, and good value for the price, and I got everything I was looking for. My only comment re: the booking service is that you should indicate that the property also includes the Club Quarters, because nobody I talked with in Chicago (including my cab driver) was familiar with the name River Hotel but they knew the name Club Quarters. It was confusing to me and to them because I didn't realize we were talking about the same property. |

Convenient location in downtown Chicago, felt as safe as can feel in big city, ie (hotel not located in back alley or other questionable/unsafe areas of city). Nice bar and restaurant located in hotel. Quiet and private on eighth floor, even with being located downtown. Valet parking made it easy to retrieve vehicle anytime, 24/7. Booked room w/ kitchenette, did not get kitchenette. Bed was very uncomfortable....literally like sleeping on a rock. No extra bedding, pillows, or towels. There was a "self-serve" closet on most floors for some extras, but it wasn't stocked very well. We called front desk for a clothes iron, but it was of questionable quality. We ended up not using it because we didn't want to take a chance to ruin our clothes. So if anyone is looking for the ultimate in service and pampering stocked w/ all the kitchen, bathroom, & bedroom "luxuries" this hotel does not quite deliver. But above all the bed was the worst feature of the stay. Very uncomfortable. Like sleeping on a rock or at best the cold hard ground. |

Modernized decor and fixtures with quiet hallways and a nice view of the river and bridges. The filtered water was a bonus. Free wifi worked fine. Baggage check held my bulky luggage between checkout and a late day flight was a great convienience. Coffee or similiar splatters on the bathroom wall. Heater fan was somewhat noisy. |

Confortable and cheap. Central location. Two bed room did not have a separation between beds, so privacy is not good if staying as two couples. |

No frills, but good location and great deal for the price. Their staff was accomodating and nice, checking in/valet w/ luggage was a bit of a problem |

The location is perfect. We really liked the fresh water taps in the hall. At first, we had a small room in which the airconditioning was blowing cold air all the time, even though it was off. When we mentioned this to the hotel staff, we got another room which had a beautiful river view. |

I liked the water bottles available on each floor. I thought the room was very efficiently designed and well thought out. The sign outside for the Hotel was almost impossible to find. The driving directions provided on the Booking.com website to the hotel were inaccurate, which was very frustrating. The bell hop was not very helpful when we arrived, but when departing the bell hop was excellent. |

The value, beauty and quality of the hotel, and proximity to other attractions in the loop made this an ideal place. We'd love to return, and often. |
