Hotel Felix River North/Magnificent Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay overall! I really liked the open bar, and it was a nice bonus that we could request coffee, tea, and other beverages anytime during the day. Shoutout to Giselle for making our coffee perfectly late night! The daily fruit selection was also a nice touch. We had a little trouble with the Chromecast, but it wasn't a big issue since we ended up watching the live TV channels instead. Tip: There isn't complimentary bottled water in the room, but there is a water station in the lobby. Just bring a reusable bottle or container to refill throughout your stay. Also, if you need housekeeping, be sure to call and request it, as they don't automatically clean your room each day. Overall, we had a great stay. The hotel is in a fantastic location—within walking distance of major landmarks, with a pharmacy and grocery store nearby for added convenience. We'll definitely stay here again the next time we return to Chicago!"

Hilton Chicago/Magnificent Mile Suites

10/10 Excellent

"I needed an early check in and the staff was very accommodating, they held my luggage until my room was ready. It gave me just enough time to walk to Starbucks around the corner and when I got back, my room was ready! Everyone was nice & helpful and my room was clean. I’ll definitely come back!"

InterContinental Chicago Magnificent Mile by IHG

8/10 Good

"This is an old school Chicago hotel with charm. The room was very clean and the staff was very nice and accommodating. Keenan the Bellman, was a great help! He loaned us umbrellas for our walk around, and suggested great places to eat! Great employee for the hotel! The location is excellent and in a safe area! I’ve stayed at this hotel 3-4 times through the years of business travel and it has never disappointed."

Warwick Allerton - Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel with very spacious room. Great location close to main attractions of Chicago (Chicago river wallboard, Navy Pier, Millenium Park, Magnificent Mile, etc) to a walking distance and super close to public transportation (buses, metro). Price reasonable for the value. Recommended for everyone that wants to enjoy the amazing city of Chicago."
