Top Chicago Children's Museum Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Plaza Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"Great food, very helpful staff"

Fairmont Chicago at Millennium Park

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Rooms are very comfortable, clean, and luxurious. Had a great sister's weekend at this location!"

The Chicago Hotel Collection Ambassador Gold Coast

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the location. The hotel lobby and bar was nice. The breakfast buffet was an average buffet, nothing fancy. Our room was on the small side and the furniture needs some upgrading. The room was clean and we would stay there again. Friendly staff. The person whom booked on Expedia in front of me had there room denied, due to overbooking. They did not offer them a room at another hotel. The staff told the person to contact Expedia. You may want to call the hotel a couple of days before to make sure your booking is accepted. My booking was luckily accepted. Tip for dog owners: if your dog is only urinates on grass, there are patches of grass a couple of blocks east on Lake Shore Drive."

River Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff is so friendly. The location is amazing. I wish the coffee was 24:7 maybe it was just like an off day or so. It was just empty a few times but I sleep in. I loved this place"

The Chicago Hotel Collection - Magnificent Mile

8/10 Good

"We were on the 3rd floor, which was very quiet. Our room was nice and comfortable. It's downtown so parking is a challenge. When choosing this hotel, I read that there was on site parking for $58 a night. I was fine with that but when we checked in, I was told that there was no in/out allowed. So, we paid $82 per night for valet parking. We checked in around 9pm. The lobby was fairly empty but there was a DJ playing very loud music. I had trouble hearing what the front desk clerk was saying to me, especially when explaining the parking situation. We would stay there again as the location was perfect for walking to the Harry Potter Store!"

Hotel Saint Clair- Magnificent Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Loved staying here! Rooms are smaller but perfect amenities. Pillows are the perfect fluffiness not lumpy. The sheets were silky. Espresso machine was devine. Price very competitive. A short walk to Michigan avenue. Would stay here everytime I am in town."

Swissotel - Chicago

10/10 Excellent
