The best hotel I’ve ever stayed in! Spacious rooms, friendly and helpful staff and an incredible roof terrace with indoor pool. Amazing location too. Stay here if you visit Chicago!
Stay was pleasant, most of the staff was friendly, it's located right in the center of downtown and made it easy to access alot since you have to walk everywhere.
We had the spa suite and fit us comfortably. Location is convenient and the valet were super helpful and friendly!

The rooms were so clean but dated. Bed was super comfortable.
Staff cannot do enough for you, so friendly and helpful. Amazing all round.
Great location!
The property was in an excellent location. The staff was very attentive. They were very helpful with any questions we had. The room was very clean and spacious.
Good hotel, good location, friendly staff, and all that at a relatively fair price. Location can be tricky, as it gets kind of sketchy at the late hours, but then again, all of Chicago is kind of sketchy, isn't it? In a nutshell, I'd stay here again.
We spent the weekend here for my sisters birthday and it was wonderful very comfortable and the spa bath was definitely the best part highly recommend will book again in the future
We had a great stay! The staff were helpful and courteous! Room was very clean! The restaurant’s food was delicious and the guys at the bar were awesome!
The staff was very helpful, especially Beyonce behind the front desk.

Our stay was nice and calm , we really loved the bed and the pillows but unfortunately we were disappointed with the quality of the furniture in the lobby . It was old and falling apart , the staff were nice and helpful . We order some food from their restaurant and it was delicious .
Convenient location in downtown, loved having a pool and gym. Hotel is clean and well maintained. Given the location’s proximity to nightlife it’s a bit loud at night and there was a $32 “resort fee” added for hotel amenities which felt sneaky given that Expedia reports their prices as all in pricing.
From the moment my family checked in, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The property was designed beautifully. Our room was very clean and spacious. The amenities were easily accessible. Centrally located to a lot entertainment and restaurants. We can't wait to visit and book again.
