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.

Inn at Lincoln Park

The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of Lincoln Park, just steps away from greenery, trails, and all the charm of downtown Chicago. This 1930s-era building has clearly been thoughtfully repurposed, and while some architectural quirks remain (probably from its original use), they add character rather than detract. The space is clean, well-maintained, and feels cozy and welcoming. Staff are friendly and genuinely helpful—always a plus. While not the cheapest option on the block, the price feels fair given the prime location and comfort level. If you value being immersed in nature without sacrificing convenience, this hotel delivers exactly that.

City Suites Hotel

Staying at City Suites Hotel in Chicago was a fantastic experience. The hotel is just steps away from the train station, making it incredibly convenient to get into downtown—just a 20-minute ride on the elevated rail line. While it’s a bit removed from the city center, the proximity to transit more than makes up for it. The room itself is well-equipped with a refrigerator, air conditioning, and a full-sized bathtub. Bath amenities like shampoo, soap, and bathrobes are provided, though the scent of the toiletries has that distinct international fragrance some might find strong—those sensitive to scents may want to bring their own. A handy iron is also available. The lobby offers 24-hour coffee service, which is a nice touch, especially if you’re arriving late or need a morning pick-me-up. There’s one small downside: once, during a late-night request, staff didn’t respond right away, but overall, the front desk is attentive and professional. The building is older—there’s a slight creaking sound when walking on the floor—but it’s clean, well-maintained, and shows good upkeep. Snacks and drinks are available for purchase in-room, and after 10 PM, access to the main entrance requires a key card, adding an extra layer of security. All in all, this place delivers excellent value, comfort, and convenience. I’d definitely stay here again.

Majestic Hotel

We absolutely loved our stay at the Majestic Hotel! We came to Chicago for a Cubs game, and this hotel was the perfect choice—just a short walk from Wrigley Field. We were able to check in early, which was a nice touch, and the parking situation was surprisingly convenient. Yes, it was a bit on the higher end of the price range, but considering the unbeatable location and how special this trip was, we didn’t mind splurging a little. The building is older, but that’s part of its charm—there’s character here that you don’t get in chain hotels. Sure, some guests mention the wallpaper or carpeting, but honestly, it’s not a franchise, and it delivered exactly what we expected: a cozy, authentic downtown experience. We’ll definitely be back when we visit Wrigley again.

The Willows Hotel

The Willows lived up to my expectations based on the reviews I’d read beforehand. As a historic boutique hotel, it’s not overly spacious—rooms and bathrooms are on the smaller side—but everything was clean, well-maintained, and comfortable. The air conditioning worked perfectly throughout our stay, which was a big plus in the summer heat. Located in the Lake View neighborhood, it’s conveniently close to local attractions and public transit. If you're looking for a cozy, no-frills stay without the luxury price tag, this is a solid choice. A great little gem in a fantastic area.
