    Pros +

    • The beds were so comfortable and the view was amazing of the city!!
    • The unique location in the heart of the downtown south loop with easy access to trains at LaSalle snd to work, the most beautiful views ever in a downtown Chicago hotel. Love this place!
    • Hotel met all my travel needs. Comfortable deluxe suite at a very discounted price. Comfortable bed and clean room. Hotel itself in excellent condition. In downtown central right by the CTA blue line for easy access. So close to a lot of restaurants

    Cons -

    • No food easily available late at night.
    • Some of the furniture is a tad dated. Not a pressing concern though.
    • Parking - convenient & cost effective once we found it but web and staff directions were terrible. We wasted 45 min lost. Part of hotel is on third floor with rooms on 40th. Slightly inconvenient but not a deal killer.

    The views are spectacular! We had a gorgeous city / partial lake view from our room, and everywhere in the hotel offered a unique and great view of the city. The room was lovely, the bed heavenly, the tub deep. It was also very quiet. Very nice amenities.

    Amazing views; more luxurious than expected; staff very helpful; access to the Buckingham Athletic Club.

    9GeorgePosted on: 8-8-2016

    With only 24 rooms (top floor of 40-story building), it felt "exclusive"; I had access to something not everyone else did... The decor, the ambiance... all elegant; with hi ceilings and solid wooden doors and trim. Very nice.

    10DavidPosted on: 7-13-2016

    The view of Lake Michigan was incredible, the room was clean and classy. It was a little odd that the rooms are at the top of an office building and Athletic Club (that we never saw). There is a private restaurant onsite that we didn't visit. Mini bar inc

    The maze of elevators that must be navigated to reach the rooms (3) is a little confusing. The lack of personnel to assist with questions and concierge services may turn off some visitors. Parking was difficult to find on first arrival.

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 6-10-2016

    The view from the 40th floor was amazing. Mine looked north, so a look to the left revealed the Willis Tower and the right, Lake Michigan. It was modern and very clean.

    10MarkPosted on: 11-7-2023

    As always, the staff was incredible and the room was immaculate

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 2-17-2023

    Great hotel experience here.

    Breakfast could be a bit better

    10MarkPosted on: 12-27-2022

    The view!!

    It was a bit off the main path, but not too bad!

    10BrittanyPosted on: 2-19-2026

    Location and view were amazing! Very clean and huge room.

    Bed, and view

    Hvac was funky. Either totally on or off with no cycling

    Staff was friendly

    Ripped sheets on beds floor was a little dirty and bathroom had stains

    10PaulPosted on: 1-19-2026

    Stunning views of the city. Close to many things. Room was clean. Staff was friendly and efficient. Loved that our vehicle was in a secured garage under the building. Totally worth the $40 for parking. All around great experience.

    Hard to find initially. Didn't see a sign on the outside of the building for the hotel.

    10JarredPosted on: 1-19-2026

    The hotel was very nice and comfortable and the view from my room of the city was amazing!

    The Tv remote didn't work very well even after I changed the batteries, but that was about the only thing I had an issue with, other than that the stay was very nice and the folks at the front desk of the hotel were very nice and helpful.

    10JonathanPosted on: 1-15-2026

    The view; the bathtub (seriously!), the bed, the quiet, the location on the 40th floor, the staff --> pretty much everything was great.

    There was no option for live TV, which means I could not watch anything unless I signed into streaming services.
