Definitely a 3 star
Stayed at the Chicago Fairmont 09/14- 09/16. We hit a priceline bid of $150/nt for a 4 star hotel on the area.This hotel is NOT a 4 star hotel. It is an older building where some things have been updated, but for the most part not. The lobby was nice and front desk staff friendly. The bar in the lobby was pretty bad. Their claim to fame is all about being an exclusive wine bar. Bartender was not really familiar with wine selections and there was ver limited beer selection. The elevators are old, but quick. The hallways are dinged up and needed repainting. The room furniture was outdated and reminded me of a 1970's Holiday Inn. Bathroom had been redone, but was kind of dirty. Not impressed with the housekeeping job. Bottom line is that this hotel needs a $50 million dollar renovation and we feel Priceline ripped us off. Better to try another accomodation while there.
