"I was very disappointed with my stay at the Congress Hotel. The room was in clear need of maintenance and updating. There were cracked tiles and damaged drywall, and the overall condition felt worn and neglected. The heating and air conditioning unit did not function properly, which made the room uncomfortable. The blanket provided had visible holes, and there were noticeable gaps under the door, allowing noise and light from the hallway to come through easily. Soundproofing between rooms was also extremely poor—it often sounded like neighboring guests were in the same room. Additionally, the space appears to have gone decades without meaningful updates, with heavy layers of old paint and an overall dated appearance. Unfortunately, the condition of the room significantly impacted the quality of my stay."

"very clean, quiet location. breakfast buffet was good. I was surprised by the complimentary laundry facilities"

"The juice on check-in was very tasty. The staff were really friendly, and not in the performative way, but in the "yeah, we run this place and we care" way. The rooms were hip and classy. Breakfast (french toast, pancakes, chicken sausage, hash browns) was all top notch, and at a price that would feel like a reasonably-good value at a restaurant that didn't have the typical hotel markup. Almost stayed in town an extra night to eat the breakfast again."

"Wonderful stay, Clean room, starbucks attached, Great helpful staff."

"Very friendly staff, clean bright rooms. The bathroom was spacious. The refrigerator and coffee in room was great. Large free breakfast selection. The only thing that I didnt care for is that the hotel does not have dedicated parking. If there is an event at the convention center then it is hard to find something close. Having to drag your luggae and items blocks away is a pain."

"Breakfast was amazing and the hotel employee serving was amazing!!! Very clean and well stocked with everything you left at home!!!"

"The entire property is very clean and comfortable! My double room was fine for me, but would have been a little tight with 2 people. The staff is friendly and helpful. Fantastic dining in the area and walkable to convention center and CTA station. "

"Always is a great experience in the Hotel.Thanks"
