Outstanding experience here in the hotel, read update below regarding my truck. Great walking distance from all the tourist spots. Excellent bar/restaurant on site. Real in room hot tubs to relax after a long day, not a small, one person, jetted tub… real deal. For North river Chicago area, good value, clean room, very friendly staff. Great weekend stay all around. **Upon getting home the next day, and washing my truck, as it rained there and on the way home. The hotel’s Valet service had my truck all weekend. It never left from check in to check out. This is the damage as a result of being left in their care. My Truck was pristine prior, I take meticulous care of it. If they call back and make it right, I will update this review. I’m still waiting for that call**

This was my second time staying at this location. I live in the suburbs of Chicago and this is definitely my hotel of choice when spending the weekend in the city. My first stay was in the 1 bedroom suite. And my second stay was in the junior suite for the weekendof my wedding. The staff here is very friendly, helpful and had plenty of recommendations for local places to visit. Its in a great location next to lots of restaurants and walking distance from the riverwalk. The CBR restaurant staff is very friendly and the food ans drinks are great. The rooms are always clean and the views of the city are amazing. They also have a nice roof top lounge area. The only thing I wish they had are microwaves in the rooms and smart tvs. But other than that its a great place to stay when you are visiting Chicago.

Stayed here for 5 days. The room looked like it was last renovated in the early 2000’s. The headboard was peeling, the cabinets were damaged and the bathroom clearly needed work. The front desk team was kind and accommodating. However, we had to valet our rental for $90/day and they lost our key and kept us waiting without letting us know the second night and then finally found it after a 75 minute delay. The third night, they kept us waiting for 30 minutes and we asked what the delay was and they failed to inform us that their “garage door broke” which was unreal that they just don’t communicate… once again they delayed us about 60 minutes. Definitely wouldn’t return to this hotel.
