La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Chicago Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Nice property and close to everything"

Central Loop Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The location of the Central Loop hotel is perfect. It's a short walk from Union Station, where we arrived via Amtrak. We came to attend the Lyric Opera, which is also a short walk from our hotel. The staff here is very gracious and helpful. We dropped off our bags in the morning, and they have a good system to tag the bags for the afternoon check-in. We chose the Suite with Kitchenette which was very roomy and worth the modest extra cost. (If you bring in takeout food, be sure to bring utensils as none are provided in the kitchenette.) Glass water glasses and porcelain coffee cups with saucers are provided, which is so much nicer than plastic. This hotel offers other green amenities such as shampoo, body wash and lotion in large refillable containers. In the hallway is a filtered water station where you can refill a plastic bottle or bring your own. The room has a Nespresso coffee machine, but even better is a coffee station in the lower level lounge. The hotel was very quiet and our bed was comfortable. Everything was clean and in good shape. Plenty of towels and hangers were provided. We found just a couple of shortcomings: there was no luggage rack, and the couch in the main room had no end table, so you had to hold your drink. We hope to stay here again on our next Chicago cultural adventure!"

HI Chicago Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed a total of 3 nights, solo traveller. I felt very safe there - need your key card to even enter the lobby and then again the elevators. Everything was neat and clean. Rooms and facilities were spacious. Lockers could easily hold luggage and there was more space beneath the bed. It is located right by the train so you do hear it when it passes by. This never bothered me but I know it would others. Would definitely book again when coming back to Chicago."
