River Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed at the River hotel for a concert in Chicago. The property itself is in a perfect location for downtown scenery. The room was clean and offered great amenities. The staff was helpful and even explained some tips and tricks to get the uber faster and how to get to the stadium. Overall a great stay"

Hyatt Regency Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was clean and beautiful! Great staff at check in and check out."

Hilton Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"Be very clear about the destination fees and high parking daily. These totaled to the ‘discount’ I got when I made the reservation. Although not exactly false advertising, it is super misleading."

Hilton Chicago O'Hare Airport

10/10 Excellent

"#1) room service was great and not expensive. The room was very clean and super comfortable. Had a great birthday weekend thanks to the team at the O'Hara Hilton. The access to the terminal is awesome."

Warwick Allerton - Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"It was our first time in Chicago, and we would definitely stay here again. The hotel is clean, quiet, and so pretty. (with an art deco vibe) It’s also located in a great area, very easily walkable to most shops/attractions/etc that were already on our list. The staff was so friendly. I wish I got the name of the lovely lady who was so generous to my friends and I. Overall such a nice comfy place to stay at!"
