Warwick Allerton Chicago ★★★★

📍 701 N Michigan Ave, Chicago

"The hotel's exterior is beautiful, and its location is excellent, making it very convenient to get anywhere. Many attractions are within walking distance. The hotel is like an apartment, and while the room doesn't have much of a view, it's spacious enough and quite good."

"What a nice stay we had! Great hotel in a super convenient location. Loved the breakfast offerings especiallly the cook-to-order omelette station. The cook was phenomenal - very impressive! The breakfast room staff was friendly, helpful and very hardworking. Our room was well appointed - many charging outlets. The Italian restaurant next door is a must-eat olace!"

Citizenm Chicago Downtown ★★★★

📍 80 E Wacker Pl, Chicago

"A gorgeous hotel, I especially recommend taking a room with a view of the riverwalk. Light, air conditioning, curtains are controlled from an iPad, a smart home system, almost familiar to many if you are from Russia. The only thing missing is voice control 😅"

Hotel Saint Clair- Magnificent Mile
8.8 (41 reviews)

Hotel Saint Clair- Magnificent Mile ★★★★

📍 162 E Ontario St, Chicago

"Hotel Saint Clair is a wonderful place to stay. I have now stayed there at least five times in the last six months. Every time I have gone, the accommodations were excellent, staff was very friendly and amenities are awesome. Extra bonus points for the great workout room! This hotel is so close to the magnificent mile and so much shopping! Also, there are a lot of food choices everywhere! I can’t say enough good things about this hotel. When I stay in Chicago, I make it a point to book this hotel."

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Chicago Wood Dale - Elk Grove
7.7 (101 reviews)

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Chicago Wood Dale - Elk Grove ★★★★

📍 1200 N Mittel Blvd, Wood Dale

Peaceful suburban hotel near O'Hare, offering spacious rooms, an indoor pool, flexible meeting spaces, and their signature warm chocolate chip cookies.

L7 Chicago
9.3 (81 reviews)

L7 Chicago ★★★★

📍 225 N Wabash Ave, Chicago

"Wonderful room with wonderful views. Love sitting in the window seats overlooking the city. The service is excellent- Antonio and Jovan are excellent as well as another young gentleman who worked at the front desk (can’t remember his name). We love this location. The only negative is having to look at the trump hotel and to be reminded of an awful human being that is sadly, horrifically and scarily our joke of a president who is ruining our country. The L7 though is wonderful and we highly recommend."

"The staff were extremely unfriendly and rude. Everyone acted so important. Nobody even tried to help guests with their issues. The rooms are old and everything is just run down, especially the bathroom which was filthy."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Chicago Downtown River North ★★★★
"The suite, both inside and out, was surprisingly large and spacious, easily accommodating three to four people. The hotel's location is excellent, right in the city center. Within a few minutes walk, you have plenty of restaurants and supermarkets, and you can reach Chicago's most bustling areas within ten minutes. The hotel building looks historic, and the facilities are a bit dated. However, avoid rooms on the street corner; motorcycle riders often roar by before 1 AM, making it even harder to sleep if you're battling jet lag. 😀"
