We payed for a deluxe room but ended up in a tiny standard room with a tiny bathroom. The room we paid for was not available. To get a nicer room, a one bedroom suite, we paid $50 more a night. A lot of little things were wrong that keep this hotel from getting a better rating- Dingy lobby with... More

In this day and age WiFi should be free in the hotel. It cost me $10 in fees to use their lobby computer and print out some tickets to a Cub's game. They need to get with the times! And although the King bed was great, the person who got stuck with the pull out sofa couldn't walk the next... More

This wonderful older hotel has very comfortable remodeled rooms with plenty of floor space! The small lobby bar has gorgeous vintage window facade plus huge TV for the game of the day - without the noise of a large bar! Easy walk to many sights and conference hotels downtown !

Stayed recently on a business trip and the hotel selection was not ours. This hotel is old despite the attempt to seem euro. I looked at the professional photos that are posted on Trip Advisor and laughed as while the lobby has those furnishings it is not that bright and shiny. I had a room with two beds despite my...

We have stayed here in the past and the hotel is as comfortable as always. The location is excellent , the staff friendly helpful and courteous. The rooms are quiet, comfortable, decorated nicely and feature a large flat panel TV. The bathrooms feature a large rain shower type bath stall but no bath tub. The towels are large and plentiful....

We stayed at the Knickerbocker during our trip to Chicago in May. The hotel is just a couple of blocks off of the Magnificent Mile. And it is off of the north end of Michigan Ave., where there are many things to do. It was close to Watertower Place, etc. We could walk everywhere and there were plenty of close... More

Let me start out by saying that pretty much everything I experienced, both good and bad, I read about in reviews, whether on TripAdvisor or elsewhere, but I still wanted to give the Millennium Knickerbocker a chance, as I tend to go back to the same places, and this time, I wanted to step out of the box.
