“Charming and Convenient.”
Warm, welcoming. I love the Kimpton hotels, in general, and this one was exceptionally great. Excellent location for business travel, as well as visiting friends throughout the city. Walked to the office, and hopping the L around the corner for dinner plans. Doormen were exceptionally friendly, and the place was super charming.
“Great In The Heart of Chicago”
Loved this hotel - small room but everything was clean and convenient to major shopping areas. Will stay here again. Restaurant was also very good.
“Chicago Stay”
Close to many things in Chicago. Staff was very helpful in our stay.
“Very enjoyable stay”
Overall great experience, the only thing that could use some help would be the ability to take a HOT shower when its SO cold outside. Also, the airflow wasn't quite right but that's just being picky. Otherwise, the staff was possibly the nicest staff and the room was in a great location to enjoy Chicago.
“AWESOME staff, wine, and Goldfish!”
The front desk staff was friendly and helpful, the doorman ran out in the road to hail multiple cabs for us, the cleaning staff even folded the clothes I had left on the bed, and we were given an extra robe and a beautiful goldfish (we named her Francesca) for our stay. I came for a girls' weekend away and we all enjoyed the wine reception, and I will definitely rebook when I visit the area again with my two young daughters, my three year old would LOVE the fish, and I would love to escape for the wine reception. I will definitely be booking with Kimpton hotels whenever I am in their cities!
“A Pleasant Experience”
The staff was wonderful. They were very welcoming, helpful and responsive. We brought our dog and the front desk was able to provide us with someone to take care of our dog while we were out. The room was small, but comfortable. I would highly recommend this hotel, especially if you bring your dog.
“Great location, pleasant stay”
The hotel is in a terrific location a couple of blocks from Grant Park/Millennium Park, several CTA stops, Michigan Avenue, and the Chicago Theater. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful, especially the concierges who were quick with advice and recommendations. The building itself is architecturally interesting - being among Chicago's first skyscrapers - and has some lovely ironwork inside. Once inside, it does feel a little small, but this was fine with us. Our room was spotlessly clean. It wasn't particularly large, but we really don't need a lot of space. Note that as a boutique style hotel, you won't find the amenities of a larger hotel (e.g., swimming pool, large exercise room, etc.). We do wish the bar stayed open later - it closes at 11 on the weekends. After walking the Loop for hours in the high heat, feeling completely exhausted, and in serious need of refreshment and a comfy seat, we were annoyed to be relegated to the bar for drinks and snacks in the mid afternoon. We hoped to sit and relax in the plush dining room chairs but were refused. If it's 3 p.m., the place is wide open and you've got a waitress on duty, what's the harm? It seemed like a little request that would have made us so happy at the time. Yet, this was a minor irritation and overall we enjoyed our stay.
“Best ever”
We will never stay anywhere else when we go to Chicago. From the moment we stepped through the door we were treated with kindness and professionalism.
“Old Time Movie Set”
Our room and the whole Burnham experience made us feel we were in the 1920's. Down to every last detail, including the wrought iron on the elevators and the animal print robes in the closet, the experience was unique in this every-hotel-looks-the-same world. We would recommend it for a romantic getaway.
“Great Hotel!”
Beautiful hotel in great location. The staff were very friendly and accomodating.
