“Great, central, comfortable hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012 via mobile

The Conrad is good, traditional elegance, with friendly, helpful staff.

The lobby is bright and spacious with a popular-looking bar and nice outdoor area for summer.

Our room was large and comfortable. Huge, cosy bed, armchair, desk, etc. Big windows. Both a bath (deep and nice) and a shower, and a separation door between toilet and the rest of the bathroom.

Only disappointments were no in-room coffee/tea maker, and no swimming pool.

“Nice room and location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012

Stayed two nights in the Conrad. The room is large enough and nicely appointed for the price. The separate tub and shower in the bathroom is a plus, as well as the water closet. Great service from the front desk and quick valet. Perfect location for exploring downtown Chicago.

“Lovely hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

person found this review helpful

I stayed with my husband for a winter weekend, and the hotel was perfect for our needs. The Conrad is in a great location, in easy walking distance to tons of shopping and dining options - including some that are attached, so you don't even need to go outside. Due to Diamond status, we were upgraded to a suite that overlooked Michigan avenue. The room was plush, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom (including the soaking tub!) was great as well. I can't speak to lunch or dinner, but the Hilton Honors breakfast was delicious. Nice workout facilities. I don't know about the summer rates, but the winter room rates were very reasonable.

“So sad to leave the Conrad”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2012

person found this review helpful

I was in Chicago for a conference January 17-20 and had the opportunity to stay at the Conrad. Hands down the best hotel I have stayed at. From check in to check out everything was great. I got to the hotel around 11:00 in the morning and was fully anticipating to just drop my bags off because the posted check in was 3:00 pm and I wanted to go to the shedd aquarium that day. When I got to the check in desk I told them that I just wanted to drop off my bags because of the posted check in time. What a great surprise when the front desk associate checking me in said he could check me in right then. High marks for that. I got to my room and droped my bags off. The rooms have a large bathroom with a soaking tube (great to use after the workout room to soothe the sore muscles and sore knees after working out), glass enclosed shower, and separate room for the toilet. The only down side was the office building basically right outside my windows but not that big of a deal just close the drapes. Its really nice that the hotel is attached to the The Shops At Northbridge because there are about six restaurants in the mall so if you don't want to go out you can take the elevator down and get a bite to eat in the mall. Also there are other restaurants very close outside the hotel, very convenient. Try the italian restaurant that is basically right out the door of the hotel. You will get to use that fridge in the room because they serve huge portions. One other downside is the price of a drink in the hotel bar. It was ten dollars for a rum and coke.Pretty steep in my opinion. The other great thing is the gift shop stays open until 11:00 pm great for those late evening munchies. Also housekeeping was great because they organized my toothbrush, contact case, etc when they came to check the room. it was a nice gesture that they didnt have to do. Overall I would defiantly recommend this hotel to anyone.
