10/10 Excellent

"Great location and very clean."

Hilton Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing stay! I was in 2117 with a southeastern lake view - could see the Soldier Field Stadium and museum along the lake beautifully! Room was clean (double queen), great having 2 bathrooms as well! The room also has 2 closets, with one being large to hang multiple outfits in, and use the other for jackets, shoes, suitcases, etc. One of our bathrooms smelled slightly of body odor, there are no fans in the bathroom either (be sure to courtesy flush while doing #2!). Staff was great and very kind despite being a very busy time with many BTS fans. They themed their lobby purple (fandom color) and played BTS music through their speakers. They even had photo ops and a fan meet up area. It was truly a great fan experience! The charm of the history of the hotel while modernizing the looks are stunning. There is original structure and woodwork with a modern tough of lighting and decor. We did not partake in any of the breakfast, however we did a late night order of food from Kitty O'Shea's bar after the concert. The wings & burger were great! The hotel is right on Michigan Avenue and very easy to hop onto the bus wherever you want to go. Overall a great experience and I will definitely be staying there again."
