My wife and kids enjoyed two nights at the Chicago Hilton. Very pleasant staff. Nice room. It was not busy and that likely improved our experience. Walked to Shedd Aquarium. Used HHonors points so the value for us was great. Only complaint was the noise on day of departure while there was renovations in an adjoining room. More

I spent three nights here alone for a convention, and while this hotel offers comfortable enough accommodations and a central location on Michigan Avenue close to Millennium Park, there are many other options that I would personally consider first, especially for leisure travel. The property is old and full of character, which means grand old marble staircases and an impressively... More

Our family of 5 stayed here the week between Christmas and New Year's and had a wonderful experience! We had a two bed room with a pull-out couch on the Executive floor (well worth the extra expense I might add), which was more than enough room for our family. The concierge service and executive lounge amenities really made the difference... More

Stayed here on business and had to share a room with a colleague. But as it turned out, not only did the 'suite' have two double beds, but also two bathrooms, which made everything a lot easier. The room was pretty small, but nicely appointed in citified Hilton style. Well located, right on Michigan Avenue, (about a 10 minute walk... More

This expansive, ornate hotel provided a lovely stay for my husband and I over a weekend in early December 2011. The rooms are tasteful, quiet and comfortable, and the staff is efficient and pleasant. Just a few blocks south of Millenium Park and the Art Institute, Hilton Chicago is also close to many of Chicago's architectural treasures, as well as... More

The check-in attendant was delightful. We were given a room on the 20th floor which is not on the exec level. Rowdy teenagers kept me up all night so I requested a room change and was moved to the exec 25th ( I am Hilton Gold). What a difference! It was so much nicer, it made the inconvenience of moving...

Beautiful hotel. Renovated rooms are very nice. Spacious fitness facility. Spotty service, which isn't all that surprising at a property this huge. I stay here regularly for business. Shop for good rates, which you can get when there is not a huge meeting. I'm a Hilton Gold. Do not get consistent treatment (upgrade, etc.); the Lounge is spacious and staff... More

Amazing and well preserved hotel. Rooms and public areas are well kept and of high quality. Location is a bit away from the busier areas of downtown, but still walkable to Grant Park and close to an L station. I really liked this hotel, but the major downside was that there was no free internet, not even in the lobby.... More
