Top Design Museum of Chicago Hotel Reviews

citizenM Chicago Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The stay itself was amazing. The hotel is in the perfect part of Chicago. The room itself was beautiful and the showers and everything were amazing. The gym was beautiful and the patio looking over the city was our favorite place to relax. However the team members were not the best. Keep in mind that they DO treat you different being an Expedia guest. We had a few complications checking in and during our trip and the moment they found out we were Expedia guest they started acting different, being more passive, and they overall became less helpful. That was disappointing because the hotel its self was so nice. We also paid to get a better view on the higher parts of the building and when we got there the guy said he would get the best view he could but no promises and our view ending up being terrible. We were facing a wall the entire time. On top of that, the employees were extremely helicopter. I understand they are supposed to patrol the area, however we felt like we couldn’t go anywhere in the hotel without an employee slowly walking over and just circling around us the entire time watching us. It ruined that part of the experience and made us uncomfortable so most times we would just get up and go to our room. Other then that the stay was nice and I hope someone else’s experience is better!"

Congress Plaza Hotel

8/10 Good

"Historic hotel with great historic feel with updated amenities. Right near lots of things (millennium park). Only con: Ordered food to take back to our room in the lounge, and they were running behind so the bartender said he could call up to my room when ready for me to come get. After an hour I attempted to call them (they have no phone I’m told). I went down and found our food was sitting in the counter. Got it up to our room and food was cold. Frustrated that I didn’t get the call or just told to come back down at a certain time. I should have gone back, because it was a large order, but we were exhausted & at that point just wanted some food so we could go to bed. Otherwise the hotel was great"

The Chicago Hotel Collection Ambassador Gold Coast

8/10 Good

"Contrasted with prior hotel management the hotel has taken on a starkly modern room appearance. Everything is functional if less warm. I believe this is to accommodate its pets welcome policy. You will find lots of people staying here with their furry friends as a result."

The Wade

10/10 Excellent

"This property has a great location, very close to the beach and Navy pier we were able to walk to both. Additionally, my room had a beautiful view of both at night. The room was very clean. The beds were comfy and the hotel staff was very kind. My flight arrived into Chicago early and although my room was not immediately available, I was able to check in substantially sooner than the late afternoon advertised check-in time. Additionally, the bar and restaurant staff were very kind and helpful. The location is great and walking distance to most downtown Attractions, overall I would stay here again."
