Fodor's "It's a bustling convention hotel, but one that retains its distinguished 1920s heritage in a Renaissance-inspired entrance hall and gold-and-gilt grand ballroom." Full review

"The historic, 1,544-room Hilton Chicago once hosted presidents and dignitaries, but today it's just a massive chain hotel in South Loop, a little far from many popular tourist sites." Full review
Time Out "The hotel boasts its own charm: fine art décor, 'executive' level for pampering and pub authenticity from Irish exchange program for staff." Full review
Star Service "The capacious lobby of this monolith—bright with chandeliers, marble and faux-gold flourishes, and frescoes overhead—makes a dramatic first impression. " Full review
Gayot "It is in a good location, near the city's celebrated Art Institute."

"“Though showing some age”, this “old grand hotel” with an “exquisitely decorated” lobby is “still a classy place” where “helpful” staffers cater to a mix of conference guests and families."
Not For Tourists "Lots of conferences at this enormous hotel."
Frommer's "The sprawling Hilton is one of the Loop's best choices for families, thanks to its indoor pool, proximity to major museums and Grant Park (where kids can run around)" Full review
Lonely Planet "This was the world’s largest hotel, having close to 3000 rooms... renovations brought that total down to a mere 1544, but the gilt grandeur and crystal-dripping class have remained." Full review

"This 354-room hotel is centrally located right on the river, minutes from The Loop, and across the street from the iconic House of Blues." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler74.4
"More is more at Chicago’s music industry hot spot (formerly the House of Blues hotel), extroverted both stylistically and socially." Full review
Time Out "In 2007 this 353-room hotel was fully renovated... the revamped image brought Moulin Rouge-inspired Crimson Lounge, a high-tech entertainment lounge and an east-west fusion décor." Full review
Star Service "This style-conscious hotel...is now a Marriott hybrid that operates as a fusion of the PG-13 style found at Kimpton's Allegro and Monaco hotels with that of the artier, edgier, modern The James." Full review
Not For Tourists "Brightly decorated folk-art themed room."
