Top Chicago History Museum Hotel Reviews

The Chicago Hotel Collection Ambassador Gold Coast

8/10 Good

"Room smelled so clean and fresh! Our room size was perfect for our stay. Staff was super nice and helped a lot. I did wish a microwave was available in the room. Location was great - nearby stores, cafes and a good bagel spot. Neighborhood was safe and secure. Would recommend the hotel for future stays."

The Wade

10/10 Excellent

"Loved this trendy hotel. Great location, amenities, and service."

The Chicago Hotel Collection - Magnificent Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Great central Chicago location; everything was walkable from this great hotel."

The Godfrey Hotel Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"Godfrey is a beautiful hotel in a great location. I had the deluxe King room that was very spacious and it had an amazing view. Staff was friendly and attentive. I will definitely be staying here when I am back in Chicago."

Sonesta ES Suites Chicago Downtown Magnificent Mile - Medical

10/10 Excellent

"Room was exceptionally clean, breakfast was delicious and the staff was exceptionally helpful."

Hotel Lincoln

10/10 Excellent

"Loved everything about the hotel with the exception of the coffee shop in the lobby. They never had anything. No decaf espresso beans, no pastries, limited sparkling drinks in cold case. On the second day, it was the same thing. The barista actually referred us to a coffee shop around the corner! If I was hotel Lincoln, I would be careful recommending the coffee shop if they’re going to be so ill prepared. The restaurant in the lobby is a different story! What a great place to eat. Service was great with helpful staff and great food. M6 son who lives nearby (reason for trip) didn’t 3pm know the restaurant was there, but he does now. Very pleased with the restaurant! Thanks again for a great weekend"

Warwick Allerton - Chicago

8/10 Good

"Very clean and well maintained hotel. Has daily housekeeping service which is nice, bedding and linens are good quality. Rooms are fairly simple but functional, bathroom is small but plenty of hot water. Wifi was horrible in our room, even the SmartTV lost signal, maybe our location close to the elevators. Got plenty of signal in the lobby. Good location near shops and restuarants on the Magnificent Mile, but can be quite noisy from the street plus emergency vehicles heading to the hospital down the block. There is no restaurant just a snack bar for mornings and vending machine for evenings. No room service. Plenty of food options close by. Bar is open in evening for 5 days. Bartender is great."

Viceroy Chicago

8/10 Good

"Nice smaller hotel, great location. Lovely rooms. Staff very friendly."
