The Chicago Hotel Collection - Magnificent Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Good"

River Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We checked our bags with the front desk before check in and after check out with no problems. The front desk staff were great. Room was clean and comfortable. They have purified water dispensers and empty bottles on each floor by the elevator that was great. Location is in the heart of downtown just steps from Michigan ave and the river walk."

Sofitel Chicago Magnificent Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Sofitel Chicago is truly a beautiful hotel, and our stay reminded us why we keep coming back. We have stayed here a few times over the years, and this visit really stood out. The hotel is elegant, peaceful, beautifully maintained, and in a wonderful location. It is close to so much, but still quiet enough to relax after a full day in the city. Our room was very clean and comfortable, the bed was excellent, and breakfast was great. I also appreciated the small details throughout the room, which added to the overall experience in a thoughtful way. The staff made the stay feel even more special. Ghulam at check-in made us feel welcome right away and was especially kind to my daughter. The little treasure chest for kids made a big impression on her, and she instantly loved the hotel. I also want to mention the housekeeping team, especially Nohelis and Norelys, hopefully I spelled their names correctly. They were wonderful. Our room was spotless every day, and they were always kind, friendly, and attentive without ever feeling intrusive. They made sure we had everything we needed, and you could tell they took pride in their work. Maria at the restaurant was wonderful during dinner. She was warm and attentive, and I noticed her helping another family even after the kitchen had closed. It truly speaks to the level of service. Mohamed, the valet manager, was always friendly and helpful whenever we saw him. I highly recommend Sofitel Chicago, and we will definitely be back."

The Royal Sonesta Chicago Downtown

8/10 Good

"Room was very clean, especially bathroom, towels, dresser drawers and fridge. The water pressure was excellent - shower had options to switch between handheld vs. shower head. Very satisfied with the room (they provide 2 free bottles of water in the room, upon arrival). Housekeeping staff were very friendly. Things to note: The air conditioning could be better (stronger) as it didn't cool the room enough (temperature ranged from 74 - 77 degrees fahrenheit). Had to fill the ice bucket to help cool down, even just a little. The toilet paper holder could use some redesign (suggest replacing to a different design) as the toilet paper roll kept falling off when using. Looks nice but not functional. Gave up using the holder and just placed the toilet paper roll on on top of the water tank. If you don't mind the room temperature, then this is in a great location and is a well-kept establishment."
