    This is our go to hotel when we visit Chinatown. We have stayed here as a family with our kids and we have had weekends away with just two adults. Great location, clean room, great staff. The breakfast is one of the better breakfasts we have had at a Springhill. My only complaint is parking. Ugh, parking here is a pain in the butt and very expensive. If you leave during the day, you may not have a spot when you get back. Thank goodness, Chinatown is so walkable.

    I absolutely love this hotel and staff here at the Springhill Suites in Chinatown !! This is my go to hotel here in Chicago when working at McCormick Place. The location is only about a 20-minute walk to the convention center, but if it's very cold outside, I would recommend taking an Uber. I just recently stayed there and checked out on Sunday when the East Coast had that major snowstorm and I just want to tell you that the staff went above and beyond expectations to make sure that I was well taken care of and let me explain why. I had scheduled an Uber because I had an early flight from Chicago back to Baltimore and and when I woke up, I seen that my flight was canceled and that they had booked me on another flight going from Chicago to Pittsburgh to Baltimore that again they shut down all air traffic to Baltimore that day due to the heavy snow so I was able to let the front desk. Staff know my situation and they were kind enough to put a soft hold on the room that I was in until I called them from the airport to let them know whether I was able to get a flight or not get a flight. When I got to the airport, I had booked another flight to Pittsburgh and then I rented a vehicle to drive from Pittsburgh to Baltimore in the massive snowstorm. I called the hotel and they were gonna hold the room for me which they did that. I let them know that I was finally able to get a flight out of Chicago and that they were good to go ahead and release the room. It is this kind of service that is very hard to find in today's society that staff are well trained, extremely helpful and very friendly and they want to make sure that we as customers are taking care of to the fullest extent and they went above and beyond the call of duty and I am so very grateful to that staff and hotel. You're not gonna find a better hotel in the area in my humble opinion they have a free breakfast every morning, which is really really nice. Everything is extremely clean and well presented and you can tell they take a lot of pride in this hotel. The lobby area is tastefully decorated, and it gives you a sense of being very calm and relaxed, which I really enjoy after a long day working Folks, I can't speak enough positive about this hotel and staff and I consider it as a hidden gem of hotels in the downtown Chicago area I just wanna say thank you so much to the young gentleman. It was at the front desk on Sunday morning and to the young lady that was there as well for really going beyond the call of duty to help me and to make sure that I did have a place to sleep overnight if I could not get a flight thank you I will not stay anywhere else, but this location because of such outstanding service and how clean it is I look forward to seeing everyone again on my next travel up to Chicago

    The location and the staff at the Springhill suites by Marriott in in Chinatown were all exceptional! The rooms were clean, the buffet was really great and the gym was big and well appointed. Everyone was so friendly that worked there and I would definitely stay here again whether for work or pleasure. I was attending an event at the McCormick Center and it was a short walk away.

    We loved it here! We went for a long weekend with plans to see museums. This was such a great location to stay. Right in Chinatown, there are so many shops and restaurants right outside the door and the square just a few min walk away. The train was about a 5-7 min walk. We drove so we had a car that we kept mostly parked in the neighboring public garage, that parking garage is sooo tiny and super tight (good luck there) We had our 2 teenage kids with us so we got 2 rooms, a 2 queen bed and a king bed room. They were attached by a door, we loved that! The vibe here is chill. There's families in the lobby playing games or sharing a meal. All the staff were very nice and helpful. The gym was also nice! I think this may be my new favorite place to stay in Chicago.

    Springhill Suites Chinatown... What a hidden gem! Hotel is immaculately clean, offers FREE parking, breakfast is robust and included fresh Liege waffles (wow), good and friendly customer service, and it's sitting right on the main street in Chinatown. Views on one side are of Chinatown, on the other side is the highway and Chicago. Technically you could walk to downtown from here but I would not recommend it unless in a group as I've heard there are some not safe areas on the way. But, public transit (train) gets you into the downtown in less than 5 minutes, and scooters along with Dizy Lyft bikes are prevalent. Uber to downtown costs about $15-20. Chinatown stretches a few blocks and has plenty of (Chinese) restaurants. If you are trying to save a bit of cash by not staying at a downtown Riverwalk hotel, it's a great choice! I didn't feel like this was worth ticking off a star, but was surprised that they did not offer free water bottles at check-in. Most Marriott properties do. There is a water station with cups but that's it and often it's running low. I had to buy a water bottle from their market to use to walk around, which was a bit inconvenient and seems like an easy win for them to offer.

    Very nice hotel located in old Chicago Chinatown! Incredibly clean and modern, appears to be pretty newly constructed within the last two years. The rooms are quite spacious, very nice bathroom, and there is also a fitness center. Surrounding Area/Transportation: There are a wide variety of restaurants right around the hotel in the Chinatown area. The hotel is also only a brief 6-10 minute walk to the red line Cermak Chinatown station which can get you all around Chicago. Concerns: The only small concern is that the back of the hotel faces the red line train and also a metra line. So if your room is facing the back, it might be quite noisy even through the night. Food: The hotel provides the typical continental style breakfast with stuff like scrambled eggs, bagels, sausages, toast, cereal, and yogurt. Pretty mediocre, nothing special. I would suggest going around Chinatown to find some breakfast if you have time. The brewed coffee at the breakfast bar is superb though, would strongly recommend!

    I'm really glad I decided to stay at a hotel in Chinatown for a couple of days, during my four day Chicago visit. I spent two full days exploring Chinatown and this hotel was the perfect base. It is located on the main street, going through Chicago's old Chinatown & continuing into the newer section of Chicago's Chinatown. The hotel staff was excellent & very helpful with checking me into a room early & giving me recommendations on where to eat & what to explore in the neighborhood. My room was very comfortable & spacious. I don't know if this is a new hotel, but it's definitely modern, newly decorated & very efficient. The complementary buffet breakfast was better than I expected & they even had quiche, as well as ham & cheese croissants available. Greek yogurt & strong, strong coffee too, with plenty of half & half cream to soften it. I would definitely stay at this hotel again and I got excellent sleep in the comfy bed & linens. The shower had excellent water pressure & easy to manage temperature settings. Wi-Fi was fast. My only negative about this hotel is that the water bottles in the room cost $8 each & it's not even spring water. But, there are lots of stores nearby to purchase whatever you might need. So, you don't have to be forced to be robbed. Other than the unfair price for water, I would've given this hotel 5 stars out of five because It was an excellent & fun stay here.

    This is such a great Hotel in the heart of Chinatown. It is located near a bunch of shops and restaurants there is parking available associated with the hotel. If you drive, you have to double park or find street parking to check in. Hotel parking is very small and narrow and gets full very quickly and does not offer in and out privileges. There is a public parking lot up the street or you can always gamble with street parking. The hotel was nice and was clean and offered breakfast each morning. We had a great stay.

    Stayed here for one night so that we could check out guaranteed rate field for the night. Which I highly recommend doing. It's a 7 minute walk to the train station, and it's just one stop down to Sox-35th. Coming back was great because of how fast it was. I also got a room with a nice view of the highway and also the field in the distance. So we actually came back early and watched the Friday fireworks from the comfort of our own hotel room. The parking situation here is a bit annoying it's really a public parking lot that they use so it's not even associated with the hotel. You have to pay the lot separately, and it's basically not manned so you have to use a credit card and park it yourself. $25 for the day/overnight. Pretty tight in there too. Another complaint I had was that there was no elevator to go down from the 2nd floor of the parking that was designated for hotel parking. We had to carry our luggage down from the second floor. So if you have a lot of stuff, I would suggest stopping at the front door and unloading before parking the car. Staff members here were wearing masks at all times. They were also super nice. The place is pretty new, probably a couple years old. Very clean. We got a King room and it was awkwardly shaped, but it has what we needed for the night. I did feel the building shake quite a bit when the train passed by. The other complaint I had was that there's only two elevators, and they ran a little slow. Would definitely recommend staying here if you're in town just to check out the White Sox!

    SpringHill Suites Chicago was great! Initially I started out in a different location and it was horrible and after calling cooperate i switched to Chicago Chinatown. This location is only 2 years old and VERY immaculate! The customer service is phenomenal and the staff at the front desk day & night were great and very personable! Housekeeping staff and the dining staff were amazing also! They made my stay a great one!! Thank you so much for everything and I would choose Chicago Chinatown again! Thanks!

She said no they just called last call. I went back and forth with her and gave up and checked with the desk and they said they close at 10:30p. Then someone else said they close at 11:00pm but will call last call at 10:30 to help with the kitchen. and then confirmed, well they closed a little early that night.

    Hampton Inn majestic will let you relive the Chicago fire!!!…read more Was not a fan of their elevators since they kept jumping from levels 6 and 7 and would randomly stop without being called. The last Hampton inn I got stuck in the elavator and had an off experience with getting help, so I chose to use the stairs. Upon using the stairs we were met with SEVERAL linen boxes blocking our only exit. They were all in different directions and could not be easily rolled out, especially when we were blocked behind them. Instead we had to parkour over it to escape. There was a valet driver sitting at the front and ignored us after I asked for help and continued to say she's just valet she can't do anything. These bins were there for well over an acceptable time, blocking the only stairs and fire safety exit but also for people that didn't enjoy their sketchy elevators. And again, pallets were there days later also blocking the ONLY emergency exit and stairwell exit. Completely unacceptable in a normal city let alone one with history of building fires. Exits should not be blocked and it's clear the building uses this space for "storage" often. Before the fire situation even happened, their breakfast situation was insane. Our first morning was on a Monday. Their service is until 10 am and around 9am we headed down for some fuel. By that time, the dining room was packed, the tiny buffet room was empty of food but packed with people who were waiting for tables, chairs and all of the food to be restocked. One woman was trying to run the whole operation while two men just stood behind the concierge desk and watched the shit show of breakfast service happen in front of them. Someone should have helped her get breakfast together. Even if it wasn't their job, in hospitality, their job as hotel manger or anyone who works in the hotel is to make sure the guest have a pleasant stay, not to look pretty sitting in front of the Hampton inn welcome to Chicago sign. Overall unorganized and not something nice to look at when you first walk into a hotel lobby, chaos. You would think the grievances would stop there. However we were then denied the benefits that we get as gold Hilton members. Previously at hiltons and Hilton branches we have been offered two bottles of water per room per day. Most of the time they would be offered upon check in (which they did not) and given daily throughout our stay. This time the concierge allowed my mom just to go grab them out of the fridge. The next day we did the same and the concierge Robyn gave me immediate backlash even after I said we were previously allowed to take them. She repeatedly said I was wrong and gave no hospitality to hear my side of the story. I didn't want to cause a scene and returned my water. She then slammed them onto our table as I was eating breakfast with my family. Definitely could have been better ways for her to deal with the problem and I did not appreciate the hostility coming from the concierge at 9 am. We were already all crammed at a small table because there are no seating arrangements easily accessible for families or even enough seats in the dining room. One star because housekeeping did great and my room was clean and refreshed when necessary (and because zero is not an option) Otherwise I would hope I never have to stay here again.

The staff were somewhat friendly until different things started to come up... 1st issue: Friday night the elevators completely stopped working. Big problem due to having a small infant and needing to get the stroller down. We were staying on the 10th floor. But an even bigger problem was that we started to notice floods of people come on our floor and notify us that there was not an exit even via the stairs!!!! My husband got on the phone with the front desk and the reply was "you are just going to have to wait for the elevator." This was completely unacceptable and UNSAFE- what if there was a fire? What if something dangerous was happening and we couldn't get out of the building? This itself would have landed this hotel at a 1-2 rating. The elevator issue didn't fill resolve itself for our whole stay- only 2/3 were in service and they took 5-10 minutes to show up each time. Seriously inconvenient. 2nd issue: they put one of our rooms (we had 3 groups) literally next to the pool. Kids were screaming their heads off beginning at 6:30am and it would carry on until 10pm. When SIL called down to the front desk she was told "sorry that's just how it is and it should quiet down soon." Again, completely unacceptable. We had young children and infants who needed to nap and go to bed early. 3rd issue: we asked for a late check out since our flight was later and we needed to get our baby to take a nap- after all of these issues they said they would extend it to 1:00, which was nice. We did then ask if it could be extended another hour and we were told it would cost $25. Fine... what was not fine was when there was banging on our door and someone walked in at 1:25pm to clean the room. It woke up our baby and completely defeated the purpose of us extending our late check out and paying the extra $25. 4th issue: apparently they don't clean the rooms unless you are staying for 3 or more nights? We didn't know about this and assumed we would get new towels since there is a sign in the bathroom saying "hang towels to reuse" or "if you would like new ones, place them on the floor". We needed new towels so we followed what it said and then were told our rooms wouldn't be cleaned or even checked to see if we needed new towels. Good things I will say: - very convenient area - provided a pack n play - Starbucks in the hotel - hotel room was clean Would have love for this stay to have been better since the Marriott is well known and usually a great place to stay.... but the lack of customer service makes it hard to want to book another room at a Marriott hotel.

Overall it was nice to live in luxury for the night, highly recommend if you're looking to splurge and relax! Hope I'll be able to stay again someday.

    First time staying at a Langham property and we were extremely happy with everything. We like to…read morestay at high end properties, and this is most definitely is at the top of our list now. We will definitely seek out the Langham properties at different locations in the future and not sure why we didn't before. Everything was superb on every level! We also had Afternoon Tea and it was the most beautiful room we've ever had tea in, along with the food and tea of course. We are having trouble getting "adjusted" to our life back home now. Missing it all very much. A shout out to IGOR in Club dining and lounge. He was fantastic and it was great to see him every day.

    We were in town briefly for a wedding, and the JW Marriott was our hotel of choice. While not…read moreluxury, the hotel was very nice and comfortable, and the location was central to our wedding happenings. Everything was great until I checked out and discovered that I had been charged $88 per night for parking. That was quite unexpected. I had been in Chicago just a few months earlier and had paid $55 at the L7 Hotel. So I was shocked that the JW could charge so much. How is their valet parking better than the valet parking at the L7? I realize now that had I been traveling alone, and not with my family, it would have been cheaper to fly to Chicago, than drive the 4.5 hours from Ohio. Apparently the hospitality industry hasn't caught on to the current affordability crisis, or at least Marriott hasn't.

    We landed here not because it was my first choice but because all Chicago hotels were booked or…read moreexpensive. Apparently there was a WNBA event in town. So the JW seemed affordable within the mix...at $700+ a night... I've stayed at a few JWs across Asia and the US. For whatever reason this one didn't seem to meet JW's normally high standard. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I think it started with the lobby and bar. It was always overcrowded and noisy, and just didn't feel very intimate or elegant. That followed with the fact there's only one restaurant in the hotel and both times we visited it was nearly empty. It's tucked on the second floor back in the corner, and just feels like a standard obligatory hotel restaurant. The food was good but the ambience was just odd. The room was well-appointed, including a comfortable bed and soft sheets. And the bathroom had everything we needed. But the service day-to-day required follow up. They forgot to restock coffee, water and cups a few times, and when I called the front desk they delivered in a trash bag. There is a daily service charge that I believe is $50 a night and provides Wi-Fi, access to gym, and a free class. We went to use the gym to access the sauna and steam room, but learned that's part of the spa not gym so had to pay a separate per person charge. The spa was refreshing but fairly standard. Not like the Seoul Marriott with multiple heated baths and a cold plunge. Call me spoiled. Don't get me wrong, the hotel is very nice but for $700 a night and knowing what I know about most JW's this just seems slightly below their standard. I wouldn't pay that much again, but would come back for a more affordable rate.

    I've been to Miru many times and finally got to try out the hotel for a staycation…read more Pros: -I loved that they had two restaurant options in the hotel. Both have incredible views but I would definitely recommend having at least one meal on the Miru patio if you are there during nice weather. -I was most surprised by their massive gym and has stunning views. It's also open 24 hours. They offered Pilates classes as well for an extra fee. -the hotel is brand new and all the finishes are so high end. The rooms are clean and quiet. The hallways are huge and felt like a maze to navigate but it also added to feeling of privacy. -there were so many high end details that made it extra special (the cozy Frette bath robes, welcome drinks, treat box in the room upon arrival, and the accent lighting in the room). -the location. It's just across the river from the heart of Michigan ave on the north end of a residential development. You don't feel like you are in the middle of the chaos of the city but the park, lake front and river are footsteps away. Negatives: -view was underwhelming ( fourth floor river view . Might choose the park view next time. I'd also recommend not facing the river as there was lots of honking/noise. -the room layout was awkward. They have this huge desk between the bed and tv. The full length mirror is a down a long hallway from bathroom/ where you would be getting dressed. -the room service comes on these huge heavy trays. The staff seemed like they were straining under the weight of it/ it was awkward. -I'd probably skip the spa/massage -$90/ day parking. Was able to do a spothero for about $40 next door.

    This hotel has it all from Pilates, to Barre to Yoga to their Athletic Club and Pool…read more The only complaint is that it's not bunched with the other hotels, its toward the end of Wacker next to the lake. So, walking from the Blackbawks shop when it's 20° isn't an easy task. Also, I wasn't able to try the Tre Dita since I didn't book a reservation in advance. Hopefully, I can schedule a reservation in the future. Plus, since it was mid-December, the St Regis had their third annual 12 Days of Sabrage, which guests of honor perform the evening ritual of champagne sabrage, which celebrates the transition from day to night. They offered complimentary toast of champagne and a Vosges Haut-Chocolate truffle. The hotel encouraged everyone to bring a new or lightly used winter clothing for children in need.
