Booked a two night stopover in Chicago prior to flying back to the UK, our room was a reasonable size, fresh and clean - checkin was very straight forward and we were in our room within five minutes of arriving. Although the hotel is called the Crown Plaza it does not seem to be well known by that name locally... More

Location, location, location! Great location. Just take a right out of your hotel and you stumble onto Michigan Ave! It is located across the street from Northwestern Hospital so you do hear ambulance sirens but I was able to sleep through most of the busy noise... The room itself could do with a refurbish but it was clean and comfortable... More

Overall, this was a great hotel. Service was friendly, and they recommended a good jazz lounge with a cover charge coupon. Room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable. Bed was perfect and the shower pressure was fantastic. Literally a block from Michigan Avenue and extremely close to any shopping and recreation activities. Great restaurant in the lobby call Elephant and... More

This hotel has a small reception area but the rooms are clean and comfortable. The hotel itself is only a very short walk from the Magnificent Mile and CTA locations. I would recommend as long as you are not looking for high end bells and whistles.

We had a very pleasant stay here. We were given a corner suite (small suite) with a nice view of some of the Chicago skyscrapers. The room was very clean and pleasantly decorated, and there was a good choice of TV channels. Check in was really slick and straight forward. The concierge was able to make good recommendations for restaurants... More

The stay was fine, the room was fine, but often in hotels you can judge them by how well they handle the things that are not routine. They handled the routine stuff very well, but when I needed them to send my clothes out for dry cleaning they instructed me to have them at the front prior to 9PM, so... More

Thank you for your comments. I did, of course, hear of our failure to have your cleaning back to you in time for your speaking engagement. There was an AM/PM confusion that we deeply regret and it was our pleasure to reverse charges. Thanks, Peter Austin, GM More

We were a little concerned with some less than great reviews. But, I can't figure out what the complaints are about. We were given a corner suite on the 18th floor over Memorial Day weekend. It was exceptional in every way. Clean, cozy and an amazing view. We did hear sirens, but we understood it to be across the street... More

The staff is very knowledgeable and will be very helpful in suggesting restaurants and activity companies. We stayed on the 30th floor and we did not hear many sirens from the emergency of the hospital next door. The rooms are equipped with fans in the heating/cooling systems for white noise and this was perfect to block out any outside noise.... More

What makes this place worth the visit is the staff and the location. You can't beat the location if you like Michigan Avenue shopping. The hotel itself seems to have changed hands a lot. The marquis outside looks like the last owner's name is barely scratched out. Apparently it's now a Crowne Plaza property. The rooms are ok size-wise. But... More

Thank you for taking the time to let us know of your issues and your compliments to the staff. I will check the air conditioning in the meeting rooms so that we isolate the noise issue that you experienced. The hotel has had the same owners for many years now but we did go from an independent hotel to being... More
