I was in Chicago recently for a print industry trade show. The event is at McCormick Place, and our company arranges for us to stay at either the McCormick Hyatt (nice but high priced and isolated), or the Chicago Hilton (nice but high priced, and no Marriott Points). This year, I checked into hotel alternative through the show website. That's... More

Thank you for the comments about our hotel. We are a fairly new property, our guestrooms were renovated in April of 2010. I am glad you enjoyed our property and location, it is great to be within walking distance of many interesting shops and restaurants in downtown Chicago. We look forward to your next stay with us!

My husband and I had our wedding reception and a brunch the following day at this hotel. I couldn't have pictured a more perfect weekend. All of our guests had a blast and loved the food and service! I think we came in contact with, literally, every single type of staff during our weekend and in every instance, we couldn't... More

Location of this hotel is the best, as it is just 1 block from Michigan Ave. so most of the city landmarks (and the shopping areas as well) are within walking distance . The rooms and bathrooms are good - clean, well decorated and comfortable – and the service is up the standard of a Courtyard Hotel. In the restaurants... More

We love our location as well! Thank you for all the great observations about our hotel. Viand, our restaurant on site, offers many different options and is also a great place to grab a drink. Having a Starbucks store in our hotel is a great plus - especially in the winter! We hope to host your next stay in Chicago! More

I stayed here this past July and was extremely impressed. First of all, you cannot beat the parking price in downtown Chicago. I believe it was something like $36 a day; extremely inexpensive for this area! My two queen bed room included a refrigerator and a nice view of the skyline. The room was very clean and smelled nice.

Thank you so much for the glowing review! We appreciate your business and I couldn't agree more with all of your comments. Our parking price for self park is $30 and valet is $42, which are competitive prices for the area. Having Dunkin Donuts across the street is great! Our team is glad you had a great customer service experience... More

So you already know it's in a great location and you want to know if it's a dump, right? It's not. The lobby is nice, there's a Starbucks attached and a Dunkin Donuts across the street. The rooms are a nice size. (FYI There is no fridge or mini bar and as others noted, the bathroom was indeed split up,... More

Thank you for taking the time to review our hotel and comment on our location! I apologize the toilet paper was not up to your expectations, the products we utilize are Cottonelle, which are standards from our Marriott brand. Although all of our rooms do not have refrigerators, they are available upon request. Thank you again for your candor and... More

The location is IDEAL for shopping on Michigan Avenue. You are one block away from everything and on the same block as Garrett's popcorn. The rooms were clean and cozy, although ours was a bit chilly. Overall a good place to stay. More

The Marriott brand is usually a good value for the money and, as I am determined to take advantage of my Rewards sometime during this millennium, I always look first for their hotels whenever I'm traveling. There is, however, one vexing idiosyncrasy about Marriotts of a certain vintage: the bathroom configuration. Many of their older hotels have separated fixtures, such... More

Hotel was typical of Courtyard hotels, though breakfast was not included. Location is KEY for this hotel as it is just 1 block east from Michigan Ave. Much of the key Michigan Ave. landmarks where within walking distance! All kinds of dining options from Capital Grille, near Tru, Gino's East Pizza, to 24hour opened Dunkin Donuts across the street. Access... More

Thank you for the title of your review - everyone can relate to that! We do have a great location in downtown Chicago and it sounds like you were able to take advantage of the many shops and restaurants within walking distance of our hotel.
