Phenominal lobby and common spaces. The room was spotless, as was the bathroom, but the fixtures in the bathroom were pretty dated. Overall a great stay. More

We stayed at The Palmer House (a Hilton property) over a long week in February. The classic hotel was the perfect spot to see the sights of downtown Chicago. The historic hotel has been beautifully restored. The lobby is amazing and worth a visit by itself. Our stay was on the Executive Floor and all the amenities expected were there.... More

A grand old building with a very impressive lobby area, unfortunately, this hotel lacked all the details. Where to start? As expected with an older hotel, rooms were sometimes of a funky layout with cramped bathrooms. That much I understand. But why would you put the only shelf in the bath above the toilet (don't drop anything!) or put the... More

Stayed here for my son's auditions. It is a beautiful classic hotel. Old hotels can have small rooms, but I was pleasantly surprised at ours. The lobby is amazing. The hotel is VERY big and hosts a lot of groups/conferences. But you don't notice it much. Read the traveler tips. State street side can be noisy from the L trains.... More

All aspects of my stay were excellent even though there was renovation underway in the elegant lobby. The staff and management were helpful and effective. More

The lobby is phenominal! I won't lie, we chose this hotel for the lobby. You can feel the history of the building when you enter and I just loved it. We even splurged on the overpriced lobby drinks just to sit and enjoy the painted ceiling (and the people-watching). The room was nice enough. It was a smaller room, but... More

The hotel itself is very aw striking. the rooms were remodeled{good thing} but, they were done super modern which does not match the hotel. the standards rooms are a shoe box and the front desk service is very lacking. helps to be a diamond member where your treated like...

The hotel is located downtown Chicago, and has the most fancy lobby. Must- see :-) The streets around is very beautiful. Breakfast is pretty good and a lot of choices. Service staff is friendly and professional. The room is so tiny and giving me a surprise. And it's just beside elevator and I couldn't fall sleep as it's so noisy.... More
