The Talbott, Autograph Collection
My wife and I recently spent a long weekend at The Talbott, Autograph Collection in downtown Chicago — and it was absolutely everything we hoped for. We live just 12 blocks from the Loop, so we don’t often stay in a hotel downtown anymore, especially not for a full weekend. But after the closure of the elegant Dining Room at the Ritz-Carlton back in 2011, we’d missed that refined urban retreat experience. This trip to The Talbott was our chance to reconnect with that feeling. Located just steps from the Magnificent Mile at 20 East Delaware Place, this 149-room boutique gem has undergone a stunning transformation by local designer Kara Mann and Joie de Vivre from the West Coast. From the moment we walked in, the fresh, modern aesthetic — warm yet sophisticated — set the tone. We stayed in a spacious 475-square-foot Premium King Room with a king bed, a cozy sitting area, HDTV, mini-fridge, coffee/tea maker, and a safe — perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. The renovation shows in every detail: sleek finishes, thoughtful lighting, and high-end touches throughout. The hotel’s amenities are top-notch — 24-hour front desk, valet parking, free Wi-Fi, concierge service, a stylish bar, 24-hour room service, a quiet library, laundry, business center, luggage storage, on-call doctor, multilingual staff, and even complimentary bikes for city rides. We spent our days shopping on the Magnificent Mile, catching a show, taking a boat tour along the Chicago River, and dining at several Michelin-starred restaurants. It felt luxurious but never pretentious — the kind of stay that makes you feel both pampered and at ease. If you’re looking for a memorable downtown Chicago escape with charm, comfort, and great style, The Talbott is a must-try.
Hotel Chicago Downtown, Autograph Collection

The staff went above and beyond, especially Demetrius, who made our experience truly memorable with his warm hospitality and attentiveness. The room was spacious, beautifully designed, and impeccably clean. While the valet parking was a bit pricey, the hotel did suggest using a platform to find more affordable options. However, due to our late arrival and personal comfort concerns, we opted for the hotel’s service instead. That said, every other aspect of our visit was flawless. From the thoughtful touches in the room to the exceptional customer service, this hotel delivers on all fronts. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Chicago—this is a top-tier choice.

The Robey, Chicago, a Member of Design Hotels
We had an amazing time staying at The Robey in Chicago’s Wicker Park neighborhood. The area has such a relaxed, cool vibe with tons of great shops and cafes nearby. From the moment you step inside, the hotel impresses—both the exterior and interior design are absolutely stunning. It’s stylish, charming, and packed with unique spaces: a rooftop bar, a retro '90s-inspired lounge on the second floor (where you get a free cocktail!), and multiple dining options. We loved both bars—the atmosphere was electric and the drinks were top-notch. Our queen-size room was cozy and well-appointed, though a bit tight for two adults with four suitcases. That said, everything was spotless, towels were changed daily, and the minibar was always stocked. The $25 daily fee covers all beverages, gym access, and pool use—so really, you’re getting value without extra charges. Just be aware: this fee wasn’t clear during booking, so the total price felt higher than expected. Still, it’s totally worth it. The vibe here is one-of-a-kind, service is flawless, and even the bathroom amenities are from Le Labo—yes, that’s a big win. If you're visiting Chicago, don’t miss The Robey. It’s not just a place to stay—it’s an experience.
Residence Inn Chicago Downtown/Loop
The location is absolutely unbeatable—right next to a bus stop, making it super easy to get to the theater for a show of Les Misérables in just five minutes.

Parking is a bit pricey, but considering the central Chicago location and how hard it is to find parking downtown, it’s totally worth it. I’ve already planned my next trip here—this place offers comfort, convenience, and great value. Definitely a top pick if you’re visiting the Loop area.

I especially loved how quiet the rooms were despite being in such a lively neighborhood. It’s rare to find such a chic, well-located place with excellent service. Definitely coming back next time I’m in Chicago.
