"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
