Will Definitely Return
Had a nearby business convention and chose this hotel on the basis of TripAdvisor reviews. My wife traveled with me and we were not disappointed. Front desk was very welcoming and accommodated some special requests. Hotel staff was uniformly cheerful and courteous, and our room was relatively spacious and very clean, with an unusually comfortable king-bed and plush bedding. We also really liked the contemporary decor - a surprise considering the ornate "old world" building, lobby, and meeting areas. And, unlike some reviewers, we enjoyed the contemporary open-style glass shower and stylish bathroom fixtures. Minor issue with loud sound when nearby showers were in use in the morning, but it was a very temporary irritation. Location was great for visiting beautiful Grant Park and we walked to the Shed Aquarium, which was amazing, although overcrowded the day we went. We did not get a chance to eat at the hotel but will next time because we will definitely stay here again.
