Top South Chicago Hotel Reviews

Hotel Saint Clair- Magnificent Mile

8/10 Good

"Overall, my stay was good."

Eurostars Magnificent Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Place was great. Loved the warm lighting in the room! Made it feel very cozy. The only thing that was weird was that the bathroom and main area share a common “frosted” glass wall. So while you couldn’t see everything, it’s weird to shower knowing your kids can see you. Plus, it’s really distracting if someone uses the bathroom in the middle of the night. If you turn on the bathroom light, the entire room lights up because of the shared glass wall."
