Waldorf Astoria Chicago

Staying at Waldorf Astoria Chicago was an absolute delight from start to finish. The suite featured a beautiful fireplace, and the front desk staff kindly reminded us about it—plus, a professional came to light it for us, which added such a cozy, luxurious touch. The room itself is spacious and incredibly comfortable, making it feel like a true retreat in the heart of downtown Chicago. Being just steps away from Michigan Avenue’s luxury shopping district is a major plus—everything you’d want is right outside the door, from high-end boutiques to great dining options. Public transit access is also excellent. Every staff member we interacted with went above and beyond with genuine warmth and attention to detail. It’s rare to find such exceptional service combined with elegance and convenience. I’d absolutely stay here again—and recommend it without hesitation.

The bed was incredibly comfortable—woke up feeling refreshed every morning. The bathroom was well thought out with a great shower system and smart dry-wet separation. I loved how central the location was; it's just a short walk to the train station, making downtown access super easy. There are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby, so you never run out of things to do. It’s not just about the comfort—it’s the attention to detail, the quiet elegance, and the overall vibe that makes this hotel stand out. Definitely worth every penny.

The Peninsula Chicago

The Peninsula Chicago truly lives up to its reputation as one of the finest hotels I've ever stayed at. From the moment I arrived, the service was exceptional—especially Jenny at the front desk, who made me feel welcome and well taken care of. I’ll admit, I usually avoid U.S. hotels because they often don’t match the standard of those in other parts of the world. But this stay completely changed my perspective. The attention to detail, the luxurious ambiance, and the level of service were on par with The Peninsula in Bangkok or Shanghai, and even surpassed the Bellagio in Shanghai in many ways. It’s rare to find a hotel in the U.S. that delivers such a high-end experience consistently. If you're looking for a memorable stay in Chicago, this is the place. A flawless experience from start to finish.

Chicago Marriott Downtown Magnificent Mile

Staying at the Chicago Marriott Downtown Magnificent Mile was a fantastic experience. The location is unbeatable—right next to the metro and just steps away from the convention center, which made everything so convenient. I booked a room with breakfast, but honestly, American breakfasts aren’t really my thing. The dining service wasn’t very attentive—when you ask for something hot, you’re told you can’t have it if you’re on buffet, and if you want to skip the buffet, you’re limited in options. It felt a bit rigid. Also, the tip culture stood out—since the service wasn’t exceptional, I found it awkward to give tips. If they’d been more proactive or friendly, I’d have happily paid extra. But overall, the hotel is spotless, spacious, and well-maintained. The staff are polite, the rooms are comfortable, and being directly connected to the event venue was a huge plus. Just keep in mind that the breakfast experience isn’t as flexible as some might expect. Still, for convenience, comfort, and style, this place delivers—and definitely worth considering.

The hotel itself was spotless, with clean rooms and a welcoming atmosphere. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. On race day, they even provided shuttle service, which made everything so much easier and stress-free. I appreciated the thoughtful touch, especially when you're busy preparing for a big event. Overall, the experience was excellent, and I’d definitely recommend this hotel to anyone attending events in Chicago. The convenience, cleanliness, and service all make it a top choice.

Swissotel Chicago

Staying at Swissotel Chicago was an absolute delight! The view from the room was breathtaking—direct riverfront access with stunning views of the Chicago River, and being steps away from downtown makes exploring the city incredibly easy. Safety is top-notch; I felt secure throughout my stay, even late at night. One thing to note: the hotel doesn’t provide complimentary water in the rooms. The convenience store downstairs charges a bit more than expected, so I’d recommend picking up bottled water from a nearby grocery store instead. On the bright side, cleanliness was excellent—the bedding was fresh and comfortable, and all the toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, body wash) were well-stocked. Just remember to bring your own toothbrush and toothpaste, as those aren’t provided. Overall, the location, ambiance, and comfort make this hotel a standout choice for travelers looking for a premium experience in the heart of Chicago.
