Very Good
Review summary
The hotel is praised for its excellent central location, spacious and well-designed rooms, comfortable beds, and a standout gym facility. Guests consistently highlight the friendly, attentive staff and the clean, comfortable environment, although some report issues with noise from the street and inconsistencies in room cleanliness. While the hotel’s aesthetic, restaurant, and convenient proximity to attractions are well received, a few note concerns about parking and the high resort fees.

Nice art. Good location close to where I wanted to be
Little over priced compared to similar hotels in my opinion

Location, friendly staff, quick, efficient, and responsive.
Lighting in the rooms, thin walls and hearing all the sirens all night

The hotel has a nice look and feel with the museum topic. The room was awesome. Very spacious and well decorated. There are multiple areas in the room to use and plenty of storage. Bed was very spacious and comfortable. Room had a nice coffee machine and the bathroom was also nice and spacious.
Nothing really relevant.

This hotel was nice. The room and bathroom were a great size, with a sofa and table area, which was good for myself and my two daughters staying for a girls trip away! The beds were very comfy and the bathroom was spotlessly clean. Overall, it was a super choice for our first visit to Chicago and I would recommend it as we walked around the city very easily from the hotel given its central location for the touristy bits and it was reasonably priced too! I loved the bedside charging block for mobile phones which was provided, as it was a really good device and very convenient to just put my phone on top of to charge, simple but very useful!
I would have liked the room to have a safeThough we were high up, we could still hear some traffic and the sirens, didn't disturb us as we are good sleepers but may bother others. Check in staff member wasn't the happiest I have ever met.
