8/10 Good
"This was a great location. I feel like the rooms could use a slight upgrade. I did pick a city view but if I was to go back I would recommend a lake view. Walking distance to the Ohio street beach and the Navy pier. Over all it was a great experience."

Hilton Chicago O'Hare Airport

Hilton Chicago O'Hare Airport

10/10 Excellent
"It really is worth the extra cost to stay at this hotel if you have a very early flight or get in on a late flight and need a place to stay. It is literally across the street from the airport. There is a way to walk to the terminal undercover if it’s raining but if the weather is clear, you can walk 2 mins and be from hotel lobby to terminal. And leaving your car here while traveling is a bit pricey but you can at least cut that cost in half if you buy it through an airport parking app and it could not be more easy and you get valet service as a bonus."
