3 Star Hotels in Chicago

I'm from a suburb of Chicago, but had a guest coming from out of town so we stayed at the Congress. The check-in process was smooth, the room was clean, well-kept, and comfortable. Because it's an older hotel, the walls were a little thin and we could hear the conversations of people walking past our room, but it wasn't unbearable. The Congress is right on Michigan Avenue, walking distance to the Art Institute, Millennium Park, and State Street shopping -- Michigan Avenue shopping, too, in warmer weather. The only complaint I have was the price of food. We ate breakfast in the hotel restaurant. I ordered an egg whites omelet, a side of cottage cheese, and a large orange juice -- it cost over $20! My guest ordered the "special", which cost over $20 for two eggs, potatoes, toast, a side of cottage cheese, and a glass of orange juice. A little outrageous, but I guess that's what you get at a restaurant in downtown Chicago.

We came to Chicago for a Jimmy Buffet concert near Soldiers Field. This hotel was clean and close to walking distance. The only issue was that we booked with Expedia for 2 adult and 2 children but when we got there they only showed 2 adults were booked.

Stayed here for a girl's weekend. It's on the south end of the Magnificent Mile and close to restaurants. Stayed in a 2-queen room, and with the accompanying couch, it was a perfect fit for 5 of us. I recommend waiting a few hours from check in start to actually check in - you may get an upgrade to river view, like we did! It was a BEAUTIFUL view!

Fast and easy check in. great suite. lots of room for the 3 of us. One block away from House of Blues. The entire area is packed with restaurants and bars/pubs. 7 ish blocks from Giordano's on rush street as well as the Magnificent Mile shopping. Great price, will stay here again
