Went to see the pre-Broadway run of The Adamms Family in November - walk to most all theaters from this great location across from the Macy's (OK, it's the Marshall Fields for those of us that are traditionalists). Great location and room was fine for a night with two teens - they're not huge rooms. We had breakfast down in... more

Our annual 3-day trip to Chicago, instead of the usual large Palmer House we chose the Burnham and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Room, the end corner on the 11th floor, was really small and oddly shaped; could see why, looking at architecture of the bldg outside. Good use made of the small space. Gold and dark blue scheme, beautiful window... more

Finding a "pet friendly" hotel is hard enough - finding one that was a total delight is a dream come true. While traveling with our pooch Jack to Chicago, we had the pleasure of staying at the Hotel Burnham... right in the heart of the theatre district, close to great shopping and fine restaurants... but it was the hotel itself... more

We usually stay at the Monaco down the street, but we couldn't get a room for Saturday night. So, I booked a great deal with the Burnham. The room was cute, although really small (and we have a NYC apartment, so that's saying something). It was fine for the night, although it wouldn't have suited us and our dog for... more

Stayed in the Burnham for 3 nights in September 2009. We won this hotel on Priceline and were very lucky with the Burnham. This hotel is just great: incredible staff, central location, amazing building. The Kimpton Group obviously did a great job in restoring this historic landmark! The rooms were smaller than average, but they were nicely decorated and added... more

I booked this hotel through my company's travel website. The rate was about $225 a night. When I got to the front desk they told me that they only had a room with double beds left. I said that I would prefer a room wiht a one king size or at least a queen size bed. They said they were... more

Greeted by a classy and friendly doorman who was also attending the dog bowls out front, as pets are welcome though unseen. Every portion of our stay was carefully planned and pampering... from Reggie's informative guidance to our room, to the coffee and tea service in the warm and cozy lobby. The room decor created a feeling of royalty and... more

In large cities choices abound, and sometimes the best are the smaller boutique hotels that combine the cities history and accomodations enjoyed by a much larger upscale hotel. Hotel Burnham does both beautifully. Never thought you'd want to stay 24 hours at the office - but even though this hotel has retained this historical office feel and unique look -... more

It was perfect for our needs - and the service was unparalleled. The location was perfect for the theater weekend we had planned. Our room was lovely, if small, with very comfortable beds and a view of Macy's with its lighted Christmas windows. The desk personnel, housekeepers, and bellman were all very attentive - as well as the servers at... more
