Staying at Hotel Felix in Chicago's North Loop was a great experience. The location is fantastic—just a short walk from the train station, making it super convenient to explore downtown and the Magnificent Mile. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, so dining options are never an issue. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The only downside was a plumbing issue on our last day, which meant we had to take a cold shower—minor inconvenience, but nothing major. Overall, the hotel offers excellent value, clean rooms, and a welcoming atmosphere. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Chicago.

Staying at Hotel Lincoln was an absolute delight. The lake-view room offered breathtaking views of the water—just opening the curtains in the morning felt like a little escape. Right outside the hotel, a short walk across the street leads straight to Lincoln Park and the Museum of History, making it incredibly convenient for exploring without needing transportation. The neighborhood is quiet yet vibrant, with plenty of dining options nearby. The location, comfort, and overall experience made this stay unforgettable. Highly recommend this gem in Chicago.

Staying at Freehand Chicago was an absolute delight! The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of downtown, with easy access to public transit and all the major attractions just a short walk away. The vibe of the hotel is cool and modern, with a great mix of comfort and style. While the rooms are on the smaller side, they’re thoughtfully designed and make excellent use of space—plus, everything you need is included. It’s such a smart choice for travelers who value convenience and atmosphere without breaking the bank. I couldn’t be happier with my stay and would definitely come back again.

Staying at The Chicago Hotel Collection - Ambassador Gold Coast was a fantastic experience overall. The room was spacious and immaculately clean, offering plenty of comfort for a relaxing stay. Its location is unbeatable—just a short walk to downtown Chicago, with shops, cafes, and restaurants right on the doorstep. I loved how close it was to a local Starbucks too, perfect for that morning coffee fix without having to go far. The neighborhood feels safe, quiet, and well-connected, making it ideal whether you're exploring the city or just unwinding after a long day. Great value, excellent service, and a prime spot—definitely planning to come back.

Staying at the Best Western River North Hotel during my business trip to Chicago was a fantastic choice. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making check-in smooth and stress-free. What stood out most was the neighborhood's safety—walking around day or night felt completely secure, which is rare in many urban areas. The location is unbeatable: everything downtown, from attractions to restaurants and shops, is just a short walk away. I appreciated how convenient it was for exploring the city without relying on taxis or long commutes. Plus, the value for money is outstanding—comfortable rooms, excellent service, and a great central spot all at a reasonable price. Definitely a top pick for future trips to Chicago.

I’ll admit I was pretty skeptical about staying here after reading a bunch of negative reviews, especially those warning about hidden fees and cleanliness issues. But honestly, my experience completely changed my mind. From the moment we arrived, everything felt clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed—the hotel’s aesthetic is cohesive and stylish. Check-in was quick and smooth, and the front desk staff were genuinely helpful, answering all our questions, including ones about the fees listed on the website. While some guests complain about 'hidden' charges, they’re actually disclosed upfront—just not always easy to spot. If you read the fine print carefully during booking and check-in, there are no surprises. Our room was spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room for hanging clothes and multiple hangers. The locker-style closets matched the sporty, contemporary vibe perfectly. Floors and bathrooms were clean overall, though I did notice a spider in the shower corner—nothing alarming, just something to mention. Downstairs, there’s an open kitchen with a shared fridge and even a slow cooker—a nice touch! There are also fun games like ping pong and air hockey, making it great for couples or families. Free drinks are available, which is a welcome bonus. If noise from passing trains is a concern, I’d recommend asking for a room farther down the hall on the first floor. We were lucky—we stayed in a quiet area, barely noticed any train sounds (more like soft white noise), but earplugs might still help if you’re a light sleeper. Overall, I’d highly recommend this place. It’s well-located, the design stands out, and the stay was enjoyable. Just be aware of the $120 refundable deposit and the $50 guest fee—knowing these ahead of time makes a big difference. I’m genuinely grateful for the positive experience and would definitely come back.

The location is absolutely perfect—walking distance to Wrigley Field and super convenient for exploring the neighborhood. I was impressed by how great the value was, especially considering how close we were to one of Chicago’s most iconic spots. The price felt fair for the convenience and proximity, making it a top choice for any visitor looking to enjoy the area without breaking the bank.

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.

The moment I walked in, the place was absolutely disgusting. There were visible dried mucus-like marks all over the walls and it was clear no proper cleaning had been done. They sent a cleaner to come back and 'reclean' the room, but I had to wait outside while they did it—this is exactly where I'm writing this review now. The hygiene standards are seriously unacceptable. I strongly advise others to stay away from this property. It's not worth the price, and the experience left me completely disappointed.

The value for money here is absolutely outstanding. Located just a short walk from the subway, it’s incredibly convenient to get around downtown Chicago. The rooms are simple but clean and well-maintained, with comfortable beds and good sound insulation—perfect for a restful night’s sleep. What really stands out is the price: you’d be hard-pressed to find a better deal in this area. The staff are friendly and helpful throughout check-in and check-out, making the whole experience smooth and stress-free. If you're visiting Chicago on a budget but still want a great stay without compromising on comfort or location, this hostel is a top pick.

My stay at Ruby Room Hotel was absolutely delightful. The room was incredibly comfortable and quiet, making it the perfect retreat after a day of exploring Chicago. It's perfectly located just steps away from a wide variety of dining options—great for breakfast, dinner, or late-night snacks. I loved how convenient everything was, and the staff were friendly and helpful. This place truly makes your visit to Chicago feel seamless and enjoyable. I’d definitely come back.

I can't recommend this Holiday Inn Express Chicago - Magnificent Mile enough. The location is unbeatable—right across from Trader Joe's, so grocery shopping is a breeze. It's just a 7-8 minute walk to Trump Tower, and less than 20 minutes to Millennium Park. From there, it's only a few more minutes to the shores of Lake Michigan—perfect for a relaxing evening stroll. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We arrived at 10 AM, and even though check-in wasn't available yet, they gladly stored our luggage at no extra cost. When we returned around 2:30 PM, we were told to wait about 25 minutes. But instead of leaving us waiting in limbo, the staff actually came to check on us—and discovered a room was already ready! They apologized and made sure we were taken care of right away. While the amenities aren't flashy, the rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. For the price and convenience, this place offers outstanding value. I’ll definitely be back if I ever visit Chicago again.
