Hilton Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"Overall it was a very good experience. The only thing I would comment is that the conditioner is empty when we arrived I called the lobby and left a message that I need conditioner the auto-robot operator said it will be sent to.our room but it never arrived."

LondonHouse Chicago, Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"The room was very spacious and the hotel was in a great location right in front of the Chicago River. If you don't get a room facing the river the view is terrible. You look out onto the top of other buildings. The toilet seat was not secure and we had to flush twice a few times. Our room door was loud and luckily we noticed if you don't slam the door it doesn't close. Overall the room was nice and we didn't complain but we will probably choose a different hotel next time."
