Hampton Inn Chicago Downtown/Magnificent Mile

Hampton Inn Chicago Downtown/Magnificent Mile

10/10 Excellent
"The room was great and modern. Water pressure in the bathroom was excellent. I would say the dining area needed a little TLC, The elevators were a bit small. Downside is the hotel is close to the hospital and you heard a lot of ambulances throughout the night. There was a valet parking fee. You would think parking would be included in with the hotel reservation at no additional charge."

"this hotel has been around for many years and is definitely a bit tired. The lobby is extremely small and could use sprucing up in some expansion. The elevators need a pass to go to the floor, which I totally agree with but that sad there is no or appears to be no freight elevator for staff to use as a result you have staff doing functions and guests trying to get to their room. Nothing wrong with the hotel. It just needs some renovation. Location wise cannot beat it. It’s in a fabulous location and very convenient to everything."

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."
