I booked a room at the Silversmith on Dec 17 of 2011. I booked it through a third party travel agent. Parking in Chicago is a really big hassle. When I booked the room, I asked the third party agent is parking included in the room numerous times. They assured me that parking was included. I even called the Silversmith... More

I can't say enough great things about this hotel especially for the price and location. The room was well appointed with a large spacious bathroom including plush robes. Beds were comfortable. If you are a light sleeper, you may want to request a higher floor due to the El being just outside, but it didn't bother us. The front desk... More

I was in Chigago for a couple of days and needed a hotel that was in a central location. The location of this hotel can't be beat, it's right in the loop and only a block away from shopping on State Street and all of the museums/Millennium park on Michigan Ave. My room was very large and clean, with a...

I recently stayed overnight at the Silversmith for business and was blown away by the value. The King Executive room was spacious and clean, the bed was comfortable, the craftsman style furnishings were nice, and the staff was exceptionally helpful. You could pay two or three times as much to stay down the block at the Palmer House and still... More

The location was perfect for us. Close to Millennium Park, Art Museum, our concert venue at Roosevelt University, and the only downtown Chicago location of TJ Maxx. Elizabeth at the desk was very pleasant and helpful. She helped us with dinner reservations when the concierge could not be found. The room were not luxurious like some 4 star hotels, but... More

I love this hotel. A landmark Burnham building with all the fine Arts and Crafts movement details. But it is the staff that makes this place so special. Very friendly and accommodating. Yes, there is noise from the L. But that is a given anywhere in the Loop where the sound bounces off the tall buildings. Earplugs work fine for... More

I stayed here after I had a recommendation by another Tripadvisor member. I just was able to spend 1 night, December 9, 2011. The staff members were all nice and helpful. The entire hotel is clean & comfortable. I was informed that the owners will be revamping the hotel next year, so it will be even nicer; I am hoping... More

Stayed overnight at the Silversmith this weekend. We were very pleased with the room and the property itself. It was a great value, and if it wasn"t December in Chicago, we woould have taken more advantage of it't great location. Staff was mostly very helpful. The room was spare but comfortable, very large, high ceilings and great bathroom. We were... More

Just one block from Millennium Park. I booked the Executive King Suite, top floor, supposedly the best accommodation. Room was very spacious, free wi-fi, with a sitting area, yet didn't feel like a four star accommodation. Room was scarcely illuminated and rather old. The whole building, the forniture, the carpeting are all quite old, and not perfectly kept. Also cleaniness... More
