This is an excellent hotel, and it's location right on Michigan Avenue makes it a great place to stay for a vacation. The rooms could stand a little refubishing, but the beds are comfortable, the plumbing is in good shape, and quiet, the A/C is very effective and also quiet. The restaurant - The Grill on the Alley - is... More

I live in the northwest suburbs but sometimes it is nice to head into the city for a great day/night. Even tho we are only 40 min from downtown its nice to have a girls night out. We stayed in the 2 room suite it was very roomy and clean. The only problem is yes it can get a little... More

Westin is a great brand, and this hotel is in a terrific part of downtown Chicago. It is right smack in the middle of a haven for shopping. However, the hotel is old. The hallways, bathrooms, and rooms are a bit tired. The restaurant is overpriced, and the bar is always packed with people. If it wasn't for the great... More

My husband and I spent 2 nights at the Westin on Michigan Ave May 18-20, 2012. We got a great deal using Hotwire ($140/night) and for THAT PRICE we were very pleased with the hotel. It's nearly impossible to find a decent hotel in such a prime location. However, there is no way we would have paid the standard rate.... More

Good Location, right in the heart of downtown shopping district and not too far from waterfront. The building is dated and the rooms are small. It is not up the usual standards of what I expect from SPG. No club lounge which was very disappointing.

I got a room at the Westin using Travelocity's Top Secret deals. This made the room a good deal, although I'm having a bit of an unresolved dispute right now about an extra 3rd person fee that was charged that the hotel says they don't charge. The area to unload your car is almost non-existent. We pulled into a bus... More

We were shown three rooms before we found a suitable one. The first was right across from the elevator, the second almost in the dungeon with a view of a concrete block. The room was adequate; had to ask for robes and extra towels. Only two were provided. Definitely not a "luxury" hotel. Walls very thin! My first disappointment with... More

Great location on north end of Michigan ave. Comfortable room, basic amenities. Excellent restaurant - food, wine, service. Typical big city rates.
