Where is the Best Family-Friendly Hotel in Chicago, Illinois?
Pros: Great staff and service. Rooms recently redone, so everything is clean and nice. And they let you chose your own pillow type, which is a nice touch. Great rooftop bar. The hotel’s restaurant, C-House, was great for entertaining clients. The servers were personable and knowledgeable, and the food was perfect. Hotel is close to all the good shopping. Cons:…
Overall this is a very nice hotel. The decor is modern so that the rooms don’t have a lot of direct lighting.

Hotel is located at a great location but has several things missing. How does a 4 star hotel have no pool? When I asked they said their sister hotel has one which is like 4 to 5 blocks away thats like hey why dont I go to the local YMCA to swim? Walls way to thin we could hear the telephone ring of the room 2 doors down. Room too small barely any room to move around. I stayed at another 3 star hotel even that had a 42″ LCD TV this one being 4 star had a 25 inch tube not even flat screen.
