Top Design Museum of Chicago Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Plaza Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"Great breakfast"

citizenM Chicago Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"loved it, great experience. would def book again! we stayed for lolla and it was a pretty close walk. very central to everything, perfect location. pretty and affordable. only complaint was that you cant watch on Netflix, Hulu, Disney, or literally any of them. the TV only has access to TV channels which kinda sucked."

The Chicago Hotel Collection Ambassador Gold Coast

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at The Chicago Hotel Collection Ambassador Gold Coast while in Chicago for a work event at Wrigley Field, and it was a great choice for my visit. The hotel’s location in the Gold Coast neighborhood was ideal — close enough to easily get around the city while still offering a quieter, more charming atmosphere away from the busiest downtown areas. The historic character of the hotel gave it a unique Chicago feel, and I appreciated the boutique atmosphere compared to a typical business hotel. The staff was welcoming, the room was comfortable, and it was a convenient place to relax after a full day of meetings and networking. Being able to enjoy nearby restaurants, shopping, and Chicago’s neighborhoods made the trip even more enjoyable. For anyone traveling for business, conferences, or events around the city, this hotel offers a great combination of location, character, and comfort. I enjoyed my stay and would happily consider returning on a future trip to Chicago."

LondonHouse Chicago, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Shams who works at the front desk is wonderful! He is very courteous and helpful. He made a great hotel even better through his service which I feel is missing nowadays. The hotel itself is in a great location, has fast elevators, great food, plus clean and well decorated rooms."
