    Pros: Location…read more Access Quick room service (Thank you Claudio for being so sweet and attentive!) Love the keycard Breakfast was okay (got the waffles) Cons: Thin rooms Valet could be more attentive to detail, meeting outside, bringing the car to the front, opening the doors and assisting with bags without being asked. They did start the car at one point but the whole experience for a 4 star hotel definitely had areas of opportunity. Price for a 4 star would be good if the rooms were more soundproof, softer towels and bedsheets, Probably won't stay here again and stay next door at the St. Regis but again, not an awful experience either!

    I stayed here for a week. It is in a good location in downtown near the river, allowing easy…read moreaccess to lots of restaurants, the river walk, Millennium Park, and Michigan Ave. The rooms are a bit old, with boggy mattresses and odd configurations for the bathrooms. My shower door also leaked (1 star off). The hotel prides itself to having "Swiss hospitality". I am not sure what that means. I once called to ask for extra towels, and they forgot. I asked for utensils and they told me I need to get them myself from the bar downstairs. I asked if I can microwave the leftovers from my fridge and they told me it would be $35 for microwave use. So I don't know what "Swiss hospitality" is but it certainly was not included in its resort fee (1 star off). If you get a room on a higher floor, the views are good. The windows do not open, possibly due to a safety issue, so the room can be stuffy. I had to leave my front door open for a bit to air out the room upon arrival.

    This hotel was pure amazing and what every hotel experience should be like…read more We were on the 37th floor.... oh my... AMAZING experience that words can't describe. Great aroma as soon as you walk enter the lobby and excellent customer service from Kenton. This is gold standard of hotel stays. 7 stars if I could.

    My wife and I recently stayed at the Fairmont Chicago at Millennium Park, and while my stay wasn't…read moreterrible, I don't think I would choose to stay here again. I booked through American Express Travel, a few days before my trip, received an email directly from the Fairmont offering me the opportunity to upgrade to a King Suite at a very reasonable price. The email stated the upgrade was based on availability, which I completely understood. When I checked in, I asked if the upgrade was available and was told yes. However, after getting to my room, it appeared to be the same room type I had originally booked. I went back to the front desk to make sure I wasn't being charged for the upgrade. I wasn't angry or being demanding, I just wanted to verify I wasn't being charged the upgrade and if it was available could we get into an upgraded room at the price that was sent to me in the email. The staff member confirmed I wasn't being charged more, and when I showed him the upgrade email (which came directly from the Fairmont), he checked the computer, excused himself and went in back and spoke with his manager. When he returned, he told me none of those rooms were available and mentioned they wouldn't see upgrade request because I booked through Amex Travel, but I could check back throughout my stay. (I wasn't going to move after the first night because I don't feel It's worth it on a 3 night stay.) That explanation didn't quite make sense since the email came directly from the hotel. Whether it was a misunderstanding or something else, the experience left me feeling disappointed especially since it was something I was willing to pay for. The room itself was clean and comfortable but on the smaller side. I was also surprised that it didn't include either a microwave or a refrigerator, amenities I often expect at this price point. Another downside was the additional daily "Urban Experience" fee, which felt more like an extra mandatory charge than something that added meaningful value. Valet parking was also extremely expensive at $88 per day. Breakfast was good, but the morning food service was noticeably slow. On the positive side, every employee I interacted with was friendly and professional, and despite being downtown on a weekend, the hotel was impressively quiet, making for a restful night's sleep. Overall, the hotel wasn't bad, but between the confusing upgrade experience, the additional fees, expensive parking, and lack of some basic room amenities, I don't feel the value matched the price. Honestly, I've run into hotels who really weren't happy about me booking through AMEX instead of them and this felt like one of those times. I feel if they aren't happy with customers booking through AMEX then stop partnering with AMEX. Don't put that on your customers who are just looking for the best price. Also, if I'm showing you an email from Fairmont.Chicago@nor1upgrades.com don't attempt to tell me it's from AMEX just because you don't like the pricing. There are enough comparable hotels in the area that I would likely stay somewhere else on my next visit.
