This is a great location, in terms of shopping and seeing the most attractive part of downtown Chicago. The hotel itself is relatively inexpensive for this part of town and for overall quality. There are a few aspects of the place that are a drawback, as has been noted in prior reviews. First, the place is hampered by its inadequate... more

This is the second year in a row we stayed for three nights at the Allerton Hotel; the fact that we came back speaks highly of the property. We really like this place. It's funky, though. When you enter from the street level on Huron (even though it is a Michigan Avenue address), you are greeted by a doorman, but... more

Great location and great value. Room was clean and very nice. more

Very surprised to read some of the other reviews because our visit was wonderful. The front desk and concierge greeted us and immediately made us feel welcomed. We were able to check in early. Pleasantly surprised by our room (a junior king suite). It was clean, comfortable, quiet. The location could not be beat. The lobby bar and restaurant were... more

I always do my homework when it comes to booking hotels. After reading a mix of good and bad reviews on this hotel I booked anyway, because I couldnt beat the price. $150 night. And after spending 3nights there I have no complaints! Checking in went smoothly, staff friendly. Room was clean, fresh and suprisingly lots of room! The bathroom... more

Just recently returned from Chicago to attend a friend's wedding. In searching for a place to stay, I found a great deal on expedia.com for $89.00/night I couldn't pass up. I booked the Allerton on the spot then started reading past reviews on this forum. I became very skeptical about my choice based on everyone's complaints on the size of... more

Stayed 2 nights in a junior king suite (pictures listed under executive suite on the Allerton website) after finding a great deal online. This room has a bedroom and separate living area, with a t.v in each! I enjoyed having the extra space knowing that the petite and standard rooms are quite small, but this is a boutique style hotel,... more

Stayed here two nights, Nov 2 and 3 and it was BAD. A conference rate of $157 appeared cheap enough but considering the hotel, service, etc it was WAY over priced. The rooms are just right for 4 shoe boxes. on the upper floors the hallways are about 90 degrees. Food is weak to average. Bartender in the evening was... more

This hotel does care the slightest for the guests satisfaction. Upon check-in I requested two beds in the room as was told I would have to pay an upgrade fee, not for a nicer room, just for the extra bed, this was just the beginning, don't get me started. I strongly causion you against staying at the Allerton, plenty of... more
