Hyatt Centric The Loop Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"It was exactly what we needed, and they upgraded our room to a deluxe room "

Eurostars Magnificent Mile

8/10 Good

"Hotel had amazing views in the panaromic room. The other issue doe me was not having a shower door in the actual shower which made the shower not so warm. The shower head was either in the top of the shower or hand-held which made it a little uncomfortable but other than that this property views are amazing with beautifully decorated lobby and other floors were decorated beautifully. "

LondonHouse Chicago, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"My stay at LondonHouse Chicago was absolutely amazing from start to finish. The hotel itself is beautiful and perfectly located, offering stunning views of the river and city skyline. The restaurants were excellent, with delicious food and a great atmosphere. The rooftop experience was definitely a highlight and made the stay feel even more special. I also had the chance to visit the spa, which was incredibly relaxing and well done. The environment was peaceful, the service was top-tier, and it was the perfect way to unwind during my trip. Overall, everything—from the service to the amenities—was exceptional. I would definitely book again and highly recommend LondonHouse Chicago to anyone visiting the city. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
