Our son just had a special birthday, so we decided to stay downtown (we live locally) to celebrate. We picked The Fairmont because our dog could come along. What a great choice! The suite had a fabulous view, gorgeous bathroom, dog bed and bowls for our hound, and a lot of ultra extras. There was even a chocolate birthday treat... More

This hotel is lovely. The Fairmont staff from the front door to the desk to the room servicing staff are polite and friendly. The rooms are very tastefully appointed and the ambience serene. Except, of course, when your stay happens to coincide with the stay of several hundred teenagers who are in town for the junior model UN. That last... More

Our visit was a weekend getaway for two couples. We booked two rooms, pre-paid, non-refundable through an internet website and got a decent rate. When we arrived, check in was quick and courteous. Our rooms were beautiful. Spacious, clean and well appointed. We lucked out with a beautiful East view, on the 19th floor. All of our interactions with the... More

So, there are several things to discuss here. One, the restaurant was great. Overall I liked my stay here. The room, with its irregular shape, was very spacious, nicely appointed, clean, and comfortable. The shower wasn't huge, but at least it wasn't in a tub. The toilet was in its own closet, which I love. The sink didn't have an... More

Comfortable furniture, nice décor, and spacious bathrooms. Second visit was very much marred by the lack of cleanliness in the bathroom. The walls of the bathroom were filthy, including with what looked like possibly a... More

Nicely located, very nice restaurant. Poor housekeeping service (mold in the trashcan and on the floor, coffee machine dirty on check-inn, bathrobe dirty and never changed. My little daughter ate a piece of bread once and we had the bad experience to discover the bed on night done but still full of bread...Early check-inn impossible with one of the employee... More

First time staying in Chicago and very pleased with this hotel. I booked a suite, which was very large. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The location was very good, maybe a little bit of a walk to downtown attractions and restaurants, but not bad. The food at the restaurants here was very good and overall, a pleasant experience. More

We have never stayed at a Fairmont hotel before but I found a great deal on Expedia for our Chicaco trip in August - $150 including valet parking. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The hotel was quite conveniently located - we walked to the Pier, took the free trolley ride back that dropped us pretty close to... More
