The Hotel & Athletic Club at Midtown

Staying at this hotel was an absolute delight—definitely one of the best experiences I've had in Chicago. The location is unbeatable, just a short walk from downtown attractions and public transit. What really stands out? The fitness center—it's top-notch with modern equipment, open 24/7, and perfect for anyone who loves working out. I accidentally left my necklace behind in the room, and while I haven’t heard anything yet, I’m confident they’ll take care of it. The staff are professional and attentive, and the room itself was clean, spacious, and incredibly comfortable. Great value for the price, especially if you're traveling for business or pleasure. This place truly delivers on comfort, convenience, and quality. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the city.

Roscoe Village Guesthouse

We recently spent five wonderful days in Chicago with our family of four, and Rosco Village Guest House was the perfect choice for us. The apartment was spotless, with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a fully equipped kitchen—perfect for cooking meals together and making our stay feel like home. The neighborhood itself is charming and walkable, with restaurants, cafes, and local shops just steps away. We loved being able to explore on foot without needing to rely on transportation. Special shoutout to Stephanie—the host was incredibly warm, attentive, and always quick to respond. Her hospitality made a big difference in how enjoyable our trip felt. If you're looking for a comfortable, well-located place to stay in Chicago, this is definitely one to consider.
