We were a group of four couples and found the staff pleasant and helpful. Rooms clean and well appointed. Would highly recommend this hotel. Very convenient to everywhere by foot. Just off the lake drive and the miracle mile

Great hotel starting with smiling happy front desk staff. Large comfortable room,clean roomy bathroom and great coffee in our room. Our room was on the fourth floor and it was very quiet. The restaurant was good and fast to deliver our order. The hotel was fully booked but we never felt crowded even in the main lobby.

What a great hotel! We loved the fact that the decor was modern yet evoked parts of it's past of another era. The suite was exceptional and Simeon the front desk clerk was more than helpful. It was our anniversary and this was the perfect place to stay. The staff at the bar that evening were also great. Just wished... More

We just stayed here this past weekend and everything was incredible! The food was great..the rooms were clean and surprisingly not as small as I expected (given the incredible location). The staff is really what made our trip. Just the most friendly, gracious, and accommodating staff I've encountered in quite some time. We cannot wait to go back and will... More

This is not a luxury hotel by any stretch of the imagination but what is has is location. A stone's throw to shopping, restaurants and museums and a 5 minute walk from the magnificent mile. You could not ask for more. Granted that the hotel has a dated feel to it, some lighting fixtures in the lobby feel decadent and... More

The room was beautiful inside. The only thing we missed having that we are accustomed to when traveling were a microwave and free internet access. Otherwise, a very pleasant stay. The staff was exceptionally friendly.

Yet another place where I wish I could stay longer - but this hotel is great, lovely staff - was advised to take the Architecture tour on the river and it was well worth it. The room was very good and would highly recommend this hotel.

I also got a special rate for my one night stay in March, so that probably informs my very positive review. I arrived to the hotel in the early morning after an overnight train trip.
