Top Merchandise Mart Hotel Reviews

Eurostars Magnificent Mile

8/10 Good

"This is a very cute boutique hotel. Relatively clean an within walking distance to a lot of destination locations."

Congress Plaza Hotel

8/10 Good

"It was an awesome location, clean, and vintage, which I really loved. Walking you will have to go north to everything which is no more than a 20 minute walk. I didn’t use the bar so I can’t rate that. I didn’t like that there wasn’t a pool but overall service was great. I would definitely stay again and recommend to others. No ghosts!"

The Chicago Hotel Collection - Magnificent Mile

8/10 Good

"Older property but locations is great! One block from miracle mile. Rooftop bar was great. Staff wonderful! Had a fitness center that I didn’t use but it was quite large with lots of equipment. The breakfast buffet was adequate but not spectacular. The bus stop is one block from hotel and runs frequently if you need to go downtown. Also can want subway station to go back and forth from airport. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby!"

Holiday Inn Chicago Dwtn - The Mart by IHG

4/10 Poor

"This hotel is on the brink, and it could go either up or down. The location is absolutely wonderful, right across the street from the Merchandise Mart, the beautiful RiverWalk, 1 block from some good restaurants and fun pubs. The waitstaff at the restaurant were excellent! However, in the room... broken towel bar. Repaired, but then drywall was left all over the bathroom and not cleaned, and they used our room towels (!!) while doing the repairs. So then we didn't have any clean towels, and had to keep calling over and over again, trying to get the room cleaned and fresh clean towels. Broken front door to the hotel, rather inconvenient esp with luggage. Thankfully the ADA compliant door worked well. Carpet was very sticky and the room smelled quite damp and musty. The furnishings were nicely updated, the bed linens were nice and clean, good pillows. The rooms and hallways were not well lit and felt gloomy. Beautiful views, but the windows were so dirty it was hard to see through them."

Freehand Chicago

4/10 Poor

"My A/C was broke (and I was here in June), which I noticed as soon as I entered room. I notified desk on night 1, who said maintenance would address on day 2. Nothing was done day 2, so I went to front desk again. They said to come back day 3 morning and also gave me manager email for any complaints. I emailed manager and also went in day 3 morning to ask again if my A/C could be addressed, which they assured me it would. Yet again, when I came back to hotel day 3 evening it was not working. At this point I have up on the matter as it seemed to be a futile effort. Also, the manager never responded to my email from what is now about 4-5 days ago. No partial refund was given to me either for this issue."
