“Comfortable Accomadations!”
Nice hotel, friendly staff, with a great view! The only thing that I was unhappy with was that I paid for lakeview, and got construction view, but the hotel comped my 53 dollar valet parking.
“Book it!! Totally worth the money!”
Amazing experience. I arrived for the week of my birthday and met my girlfriend there. I guess one of the staff saw that I had spent a lot of time with her at Wave and that inspired them to send us champagne to our room. I was also upgraded for free to a Lakeview room. Really, the best experience, great price, everyone should be there! It's got everything from fantastic food, great service, Bliss spa and soaps all over!
“this is one of the best hotel in town”
the hotel is nice very clean and near to all hospital ,shopping and restaurants.the staff is courteous and very nice.
“Great hotel and great location”
Easy access to the Navy Pier. Several restaurants nearby. Park across the street for running. Very nice hotel!
“great place, good location”
This hotel was beautiful. Room was well-appointed, although I did agree general lighting could be improved but it wasn't really bad. Very quiet inside the room. Location was an easy walk to the Navy Pier or trolley stop. Restaurant was wonderful. I would go back again especially if I can get another good deal from Expedia.
“Great Hotel”
This hotel was very nice. We were able to check in early and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The beds were very comfortable with amazing pillows. The room itself was nicely decorated and clean. The restaurant downstairs wasn't very good, but overall was great! Would definitely return.
“Would return”
My wife and I went for a Sat. night stay the the "Fesitval of Lights" Had a wonderful time. hotel clean and comfy. Didn't spend alot of time there. Was convenient and within walking distance to Michigan Ave. shops and restaurants. Parking pricey.
“Great Stay!”
We had a great stay at the W Lakeshore for a get-away weekend. Great location--we walked to many destinations including the MCA and Michigan ave. The hotel has a hip/young vibe to it, but it was very welcoming to a couple in their 40s. Wonderful lake view from the room.
“Terrific”
Can't wait to go back! Clean rooms, friendly and attentive service and terrific location.
“Great Hotel”
Overall great hotel. The reson I gave 4 for the service is because to get the room we requested we had to wait till 3PM, which was incinvenient. we checked in on Sunday and the lobby was absolutely swamped with people and for some reason lots of kids, but it does not seem like a kid firendly hotel. The room was absolutely beautiful, again I think it is more adult oriented. Great flat screen TVs, nice bathroom. The high point of the stay was the hotel sky bar on the 34 floor. Absolutely amazing views and worth every penny.
