Top Chicago Water Tower Hotel Reviews

Hilton Chicago/Magnificent Mile Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Did a turn and burn stay here (checked in Saturday and checked out Monday) and had a pleasant visit. The front desk customer service was A+. My only 2 feedback are: the valet attendant should be more attentive. I waited 10 mins while the valet attendant was chatting away with a co-worker and then started laughing with I assume a customer. I had to politely interrupt to get service. 2nd feedback: I was on the 23rd floor and soon as I stepped off the elevator, the hallway and room had a sour/mildew odor."

Freehand Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"I booked the hotel originally for the location. The building was secure and although the room was small, it was good for my purposes. The building, including the rooms was clean, although there was no fridge available. The lobby bar had great cocktails ,it was a fun place to chill outside of the room."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Chicago Downtown Magnificent Mile

8/10 Good

"The location of the property and the staff were excellent. There was only one elevator working and took a long time to get up or down with everyone trying to use it. The room itself was old, the couch had a big rip and the shower tub had a big stain and the faucet was barely working."

The Whitehall Hotel, BW Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent

"The Whitehall is “my Go To” when I am traveling solo, or with a girlfriend! Location is best in the city, for high end shopping and restaurants! Lake Michigan and Oak Street Beach are a “stones throw” away. This is one of the Real Classic Hotels. It is a bit dated, yet; all of my needs are met, with awesome beds, crisp clean linens, luggage racks, a safe for your valuables, along with marble bathrooms, really Hot Showers! The staff is always polite and helpful. The rooms are spacious and views can be awesome!😎 As a 25 year Chicagoan, whom no longer lives here, I Love 💕 this place… 👏 👏 👏"
