Love it
Great old hotel, very different from the other chains. Love the older charm and right across the street from The Drake, another cool hotel.
Price here was great as well, although I do really get tired of the price not reflecting the 'resort fees'.

Pretty good for the price
We had a good stay overall. The staff was not overly friendly but nice enough. We did run into one nice young man who overheard us talking about the Crystal ballroom and offered to take us in to see it. He was very engaging telling us about some of the history and how the room is used today. We also encountered a very nice server at the restaurant who helped me make some change (we hadn’t eaten there just stopped by to see if they could exchange some larger bills). He was very friendly and I’m sure was a great server as well! If I had any complaints it would just be that the hotel is getting old and could definitely benefit from some updates. The carpet in the hallways clearly has had some flooding issues and the carpet in our room had several spots where it was fraying or missing in spots. Several lights in the ceiling in the hallways are ripped. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable aside from the sheets that sounded like paper and were so loud every time you moved. We reserved 2 King studio suits (floors 7 & 8). The view is awful from these rooms so definitely don’t expect the view you see on their website. We looked out directly to the other side of the building and could not see any of the city. Luckily we were just there for one night and scored a good deal so it was ok. The location was great being just off Michigan Ave.

Food was mid
My only gripe was the bar food quality & service, extremely slow and what came out didn’t match the descriptions half the time. Asked to see a manager by day 2 and they told me they were so short staffed they didn’t have one. Not acceptable, everything else was great!

Parking ugh
Nice place to stay and location is great!! Although the description I saw said parking included, it was not. (Overnight $50 with no in and out / valet $75 unlimited in and out) In this city parking that is reasonable is paramount. ) Everything else was great.

Didn’t feel terribly safe.
There seemed to be quite a bit of nefarious activity as the Chicago Police were on site twice while we were there making arrests of individuals. We were forced to weave through them to leave the property. It’s a historic hotel but I don’t need to revisit as I feel it attracts an unsavory clientele. Check-in was duplicated first online the again at the desk. Even a pre-paid stay required a $100 deposit per night. While stated as a non-smoking hotel, the smell of marijuana was very strong on the elevators. Location is great for Mag Mile shopping and our room was updated. Room was clean upon arrival but we received no housekeeping for even the bed linens or updating the in-room coffee supplies. No in-room refrigerator which was a surprise.

Needed a room for the night while I was in town for a show. Location was great, rooms were decent-enough but felt a bit dated. No complaints about cleanliness, at least in my room!

Hidden fees. No buffet breakfast
Was supposed to get a breakfast buffet, but was only offered 2 eggs. Also charged a “destination fee” which was not disclosed ahead of time.
