Everything in the hotel was super clean, the lobby, the room, the dining area. Continental breakfast was standard Holiday Inn spread with just enough to choose from. The staff were SO nice. In the couple of days we were there we interacted with four or five staff members and they were all fabulous. Location was great, shopping on Magnificent Mile and eating nearby (took the L train to get there). Can’t say enough, it was great.

I thought it was great for the price. I like thayt the breakfast was included and check in and out was easy. Staffs are very nice. We asked to keep our bags for a few hours when we checked out and they happily did. The room is a little small but in a big city it’s normal. Highly recommend

6/10 Good

Staff were professional, courteous and nice. It’s an older hotel and walls are thin, so between loud neighbors, noise from the street below (car alarms, sirens, etc), and not very comfortable beds, it was not easy to sleep through the night.

I was in Chicago for a conference. Holiday Inn Express Chicago was a pleasant walk from the conference center (and about half the price). There were plenty of shops and restaurants right outside the door - including a Trader Joes. My room was clean. The staff was lovely and the breakfast had lots of healthy choices.
