I didn't have breakfast, I liked the old school look, staff very pleasant, location good.

Paul United States of America

Beautiful architecture, nice staff, quite and spacious room (king guest room). Big bathroom and good shower. Walking distance, less than 5 minutes, to Buddy Guy's Legends. The location was what we needed, but someone might prefer to be closer to the Riverwalk. But it is still walking distance (25minutes...). Chicago is very easy to walk. The room has a smart tv, starbucks coffee, wifi is not for free (around U$15/day), good bath products. As far as I remember, it's quite expensive the overnight parking (U$70+...)

Karina United States of America

The staff at this hotel was exceptional. From the sweet doorman from Toledo to the wonderful front desk girls who got me a very appreciated early check-in, they went above & beyond.

Carolyn United States of America

The hotel is great. The rooms are very comfortable. Bathroom is really big. Very clean hotel and fully renovated. Location is ok. Not really in the busiest area of Michigan Av, but you can definitely start your walk there and maybe come back by tax at the end of the day.

Joaquim United States of America

Hotel was in a great location and the rooms were a great size!

Rashidat United States of America

What a beautiful hotel! Everything exceeded our expectations; the location, the lobby, the rooms, and especially the view. Small things like a refrigerator in the room, the cleanliness of the room, and the comfort of the bed itself was truly appreciated. This will be our new hotel of choice when coming into the city and we look forward to returning soon! What a pleasure this stay was.

Erin United States of America

Loved the room and the lake view location! Beautiful inside and out. The beds, linens and pillows were fabulous! Two great nights of sleep!

Cherie United States of America

Room was great, fellow guests were great (wedding party in ballroom), staff friendly, clean, easy in and out with car, right downtown in the loop, everything perfect. Oh, yeah - historical also, very cool.

Leo United States of America

How the hotel looked, the location, and how cozy and comfortable the room was. Also how nice and helpful everyone was upon arrival and check out.

William United States of America

Great location, historic and artsy hotel, comfy bed, spacious bathroom
