Freehand Chicago

8/10 Good

"staff was helpful, room is old, curtains have stain all over."

The Whitehall Hotel, BW Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent

"The two main complaints that I have is that there wasn’t a full length mirror anywhere and no complementary bottles of water in the room. Other than that, the beds were fantastic. The sheets were great. The pillows were awesome and the staff was terrific."

Sheraton Grand Chicago Riverwalk

8/10 Good

"Hotel and location are wonderful! Clean and staff friendly! Only complaint is the on site self parking is way to expensive. It’s $75 per day and you can pay cheaper at a self parking lot right by. Also the $30 dollar resort fee plus tax is crazy! They give you $15 credit and say go to the bar and get 2 drinks but the drinks are expensive and you end up paying more than $15 dollars. A beer is 14 dollars and we had 2 cocktails and it was $63! Plus we tipped. The room was $421 per night for a river view which is expensive but we did it for 4 nights and splurged. But with parking and the $30 per night fee for 4 nights it cost us an additional $600! Crazy! Not sure if I will stay again there! It was our second time we stayed there and they didn’t have us pay to park and there wasn’t a resort fee. Was in 2021."

Hotel Felix River North/Magnificent Mile

8/10 Good

"Hotel Felix was in a fantastic location. The staff were very friendly. Our room on the 9th floor with 2 double beds was small, with only a mini fridge. The curtains were old and difficult to open and close. The WiFi would drop or was very slow. The television also provided issues, turning off or to the starting screen, multiple times. The hotel offered only coffee/tea and fresh fruit until 9am. The staff made our stay more enjoyable."
