Beautiful Hotel
A truly beautiful hotel. The architecture and layout were awesome. I love old buildings and their charm, and this didn't disappoint.
The room I shared with my son was quite large, but I understand they also have some that are on the smaller side. Ours had two bathrooms, but both were quite small. The room, while very large, seemed to be large only because they combined two rooms once upon a time. Two beds on one wall, a chair on the outside wall in the middle, and a desk with a tv on the other wall - nothing special. Also, the tv, given the distance from the beds, was much too small. Overall, the room was very average.
The sevice was outstanding, from the moment you pull up to the curb, all the way through the front desk service and any other request we had - we were met with prompt responses, smiles and offers for further assistance. The manager and employees should be congratulated for going over and above being simply efficient.
Thanks very much for a nice weekend in Chicago, Palmer House. We enjoy trying different hotels when we travel, but we would not hesitate to stay here again and would recommend it.
