Hilton Chicago/Magnificent Mile Suites
Valet and bellmen were great as always. Polite and helpful. The staff brought up an extra valet for my kids on the pullout couch. Great setup for family with kids! And the restaurant on the corner has the best coffee. We stay here every time we visit, can’t beat location, price and separate space ...
