Embassy Suites by Hilton Chicago Downtown River North
The rooms are spacious. While the pool is rather small my kids loved it, and we went every evening. The breakfast was good, and offered a large variety of choices. With the nearby access to the redline I would recommend this hotel for anyone visiting downtown Chicago.
