Great location - excellent concierge staff
We stayed at the Marriott Downtown Chicago Magnificent Mile for Labor Day weekend. The lobby bar area was extremely busy and loud due to all the Iowa Hawkeye fans on site. The room was clean but the bathrooms were small. We had a great view from the 27th floor facing Michigan Ave. The concierge staff was great and had plenty of restaurant ideas for us. They called ahead and made sure we had seating on Friday night and booked our Smith & Wollensky reservations in advance even calling the room to confirm the next day. The hotel is about a $38 cab ride from O Hare without tip and an easy walks to the Navy Pier, all the shopping, many of the best steak houses and the Wendella Boat tours next to the Wrigley building.
