Intercontinental Hotel & Resorts Hotels in Chicago

The Chicago Hotel Collection Magnificent Mile The cleaning rules and service is by far the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in my life. You have to request room service I requested room service a day before as the policy says and they still don’t clean the room towels were not switched out the garbage was not disposed of. I complained for a second time at the front desk with the two young ladies and now she wants to argue with me. Then the argument turned into negotiations on what gets cleaned and what does not. She says “we can replace the towels and remove the trash but we can’t make up the bed” (SMDH) I can’t make this Chit up I think it’s horrible that I have to negotiate with the front desk about getting my room cleaned, hotels are supposed to clean the room regardless whether you ask for them or not that’s common courtesy but this place does not. It became a negotiation tactic this should not even be a conversation as hotels are supposed to clean your room daily. The Wifi is shotty at best. Logging on to Wi-Fi seems to be a very difficult challenge as once you connect to the Wi-Fi in your settings then you have to go to your web browser and log in a code and that doesn’t happen. Finally, after about 10 attempts the web login page pulled up. Their Wi-Fi system does not allow your connected device to stay on you have to re-login every time you shut down your device therefore you have the same problem all over again also I found it harder to connect at late night hours as opposed to the morning and I’m not sure if they’re cutting off the Wi-Fi the other problem that I had was it would connect to one device and not the other. I can’t recommend this place at all if you’re looking for good service the hotel room is nice but that’s where it ends. This hotel lacks good service or good customer service at the front desk, they just keep repeating “sir it's policy” to do this, certain policy to do that and if that’s their policy with Customer service and how they handle a problem or three customers it’s not a hotel I suggest anyone going to, especially for the high dollar amount per night I do not recommend this hotel at all.

This must have been at least our 5th stay at this hotel. The location works, the pricing works and the people are wonderful. The front desk people recognize my Marriott Bonvoy status and give us a very nice room. The Chicagoan lobby bar has attentive bartenders that will serve many other drinks not on the cocktail list. Cafe Maxwell, the club lounge, has drinks always available in coolers, and a morning hot breakfast. Our special thanks to Victor, who took care of our needs so well. The elevator service is very quick. The room and bathroom were clean. I cannot comment about housekeeping because our 3 night stay that was first a free night followed by 2 paid nights (on 2 reservations), meant no service.

I would recommend this hotel to everyone if I could! Every single staff member was super nice and answered all my questions fast. The LOCATION is PERFECT! I was staying here for Lollapalooza and it was just a 8 or so minute walk to grant park. Being right on the river was incredible! The inside is very nice and clean and the room was very spacious. Will stay here gain if I ever come to Chicago!

The hotel is in a great location! Close to main attractions and lots of restaurants! Main staff was not very friendly. Hotel is beautiful when you enter. Rooms are very old and need updating. The toilet in my bathroom had a corroded tank and a broken lever. That was a bit frustrating. Bed was very hard!! Room was very cold! Only one thermostat for the entire hotel. There is no individual thermostat in each room. Had to ask for extra blankets. They did provide that for me. The fitness room is very nice! Every thing you need to have a really good workout! They indicated they are in the process of renovating rooms. They’ve just not completed that project yet. I would stay there again if the price was right. Hopefully next time I’ll get an updated room!

One of the highlights of our trip - also caught the taxi boat which at $16 a head was a bargain. If you have time, a trip to the zoo (free) is a must Red bus tour at $50 each a rip off $5 daily ticket for their overground local loop trains was a bargain Expect to pay $12-15 for a glass of wine

I booked a room at this hotel because of the positive reviews and I was not disappointed. The rate I got was pretty good. If you book online via the hotel's website, you can save some money. I actually called and talked to someone at the hotel because on one day, we had 2 people staying and on another day, we had 3 people staying (because my husband was flying in to join us later) and the rates were different depending on the number of people staying. This is standard procedure in some European countries, so I wasn't completely shocked. The room we had was small, but clean. Because of COVID, we were told there wouldn't be any housekeeping and if we needed anything (like towels), we could come to the front desk. We didn't have a great view, like one of the other reviews we had read, but I did like the location. The hotel is located on the edge of Chinatown, so there are many restaurants within a 5-10 minute walk. There is also a metro station that is about a 5 minute walk from the hotel, in the Chinatown parking lot. In fact, we parked our car there for 2 nights. I was a little worried about somebody breaking into it, as it is a surface lot, but no such thing happened. In fact, there are lots of cars parked in the lot at any one time. I would definitely stay at this hotel again. I LOVE the location!

We got lucky and got an okay room with no significant health violations. The facilities are very dated but we expected that by reading the reviews. One alarming factor was that the locks did not work at all. The check-in was okay, but the receptionist was not very communicative.

One of the main reasons my daughter and I picked the Warwick hotel in Chicago was that it was in a good location and had a bar and a restaurant on premises. We like to go have a drink or eat without walking the streets especially when we first check in to relax from a long day of traveling. When we got to the check in desk ,we found out that the bar and restaurant have been shut down for a while and probably not reopening for another year.online shows great photos of delicious food dishes. We were very upset that that was not disclosed prior to our stay, we would have chosen another hotel.we asked to speak to the manager as we were told to do that when I called warwickhotels.com. We were told the manager was off.we then talked to a supervisor that said she would be just as upset as we were but she couldn’t do much about it.we went out to the streets to try and find another hotel last minute.we took our suitcases b/c there was no one to watch them and the hotel sign said they were not responsible. We didn’t have any luck walking around and checking the near hotels. I felt like we were stuck in a situation we did not like and no one cared. There was also no Wi-Fi . I tried to connect as a guest a dozen times- it kept saying turn off browser and try again. We were also checked in as 2 guests only to find out there were no cups for water in the room and only 1 cup for the little coffee pot which was undrinkable due to the old creamers . The smell was a stale smell so we passed on drinking it.instead had to get dressed and walk the streets to get a cup of coffee. Sorry but I feel we were greatly deceived with the whole experience. I gave the hotel a 1 but really should have given it a big zero!,,

I admit I was somewhat nervous about booking the Hotel Allegro because some reviews were so negative. I've since realized that those reviewers are probably not accustomed to staying in a city boutique hotel. I last stayed at the Hotel Allegro in 2019 and I thought it was fine. I booked it again because it was a great value and the perfect location for my business trip to the city. My 2022 experience outshines my 2019 visit. I arrived at my 11th-floor room around 7:30 p.m. on Thursday evening. My room was *perfect.* It was surprisingly spacious for the price and aesthetic. The room featured an iron, a mini fridgerator, multiple charging stations, a television, and a desk. I was surprised to see the hotel offered robes and slippers since the evening rate was so affordable. The hotel elevators are remarkably fast (maybe the fastest I've ever experienced?) and the bellman are very friendly. There is a Starbucks on the ground floor of the building that houses the Hotel Allegro. They open at 5:30 a.m., even on Sundays, so I couldn't ask for more! I didn't get the chance to have a cocktail at the lobby bar but it looked lovely. The property is one block from the Orange line (Midway airport) and about 3 or 4 blocks from Ogilvie station. You can easily walk, as I did, to Michigan Avenue and River North restaurants and bars. P.S. I had spoken with Adam, the assistant property manager, via email prior to my arrival. He was incredibly kind and made sure my experience was perfect. Thank you, Adam!
