Solid Experience

Great Location and very helpful staff. Comfortable room and very good room service. Bathroom was on the small side with the unusual sink design, while pretty, made it difficult to use the counter space. Only real complaint would be the 2 hotel elevators, which are on the small side and were often over-crowded leading to long waits to get on and then many stops with 17 floors.

Loved this place!

I stayed at The James with my mom and sisters for a day of shopping in the city. They had two double beds (not many hotels offer this anymore), the location was fabulous, and the service excellent. From the minute they parked my car and took my bags, the service was impeccable. They held my mother’s purse at the front desk for her all day. They stored a cake I brought and offered candles. The service was so great and so not pretencious (sp?). We loved the Kiehls products in the bathroom and the comfy beds. Having Trader Joes’s across the street is huge to run in and get bottled water and healthy snacks. Starbucks is also on the same block and there’s a nice bagel shop across the street that also offers egg breakfasts. There’s a movie theatre right across the street and you’re right around the corner from Michigan Ave. It really is perfectly located if you plan to spend your time on the Mag Mile!

The only place to stay....

I took my daughter to Chicago for the weekend and we stayed at The James..what a wonderful hotel. The staff are amazing. They are helpful, polite and eager to make the stay one of a kind. The food is amazing. It is a block off of Michigan Ave. I will go back and stay at this hotel again.
