Omni Chicago Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff at the Omni hotel in Chicago were friendly, helpful, and just outstanding. There were no exceptions; from the doorman, to the porter to the waiters at the 626 restaurant. Thank you so much!"

The Royal Sonesta Chicago Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"We had a good stay at The Royal Sonesta Chicago Downtown. The room was clean, and the view was amazing. The hotel location is excellent and very walkable, close to many of the main attractions in downtown Chicago. The staff was okay and helpful when we asked for assistance. I did expect the room to feel a little more luxurious, and the shower needed some maintenance. Overall, it was a good experience because of the clean room, beautiful view, and great location. I would give it 4.5 stars."

The Whitehall Hotel, BW Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent

"The property and room were clean and well maintained. The beds were comfortable and the AC worked great. Chicago station (red line) was within a few minutes walking distance. Wrigley Field is off of that line. If driving to the hotel, wait to check in to speak to the front desk regarding parking. They have additional information on parking and could possibly save you money. Convenient location for many sights and restaurants. Overall, we had a wonderful stay at the Whitehall Hotel."
