Hilton Chicago O'Hare Airport

Hilton Chicago O'Hare Airport

10/10 Excellent
"This makes life and travels easier. The property is literally across from the terminals at O'Hare. You access the terminals through a well-lit tunnel at the Hilton. I highly recommend this property."

8/10 Good
"When booking the room the websife mentioned self parking available. It did not clarify the self parking was $63 for self parking and w blocks from the hotel, or $82 for valet parking at the hoteI. I went with the valet parking as the self parking was 2 blocks away. The hotel was very clean and was in a great neighborhood. The staff were very nice and helpful. The food was great at breakfast. More clarification on the parking would have been helpful and would have affected my selection of hotel."
