We stayed at the Best Western River North in Chicago for two nights at the start of our route 66 trip. We were attracted by the central location and free parking and it certainl y delivered. In the entertainment district, there are lots of restaurants, bars and clubs nearby, and it is within walking distance of the Magnificent Mile and... More

Great Location, Awesome Staff, Comfortable Rooms & Free Parking. Who could ask for anything more! This hotel is located near many great restaurants, (Gino's is our favorite) We stayed at this hotel also because it was convenient to Northwestern Hospital, where we had an early morning surgery scheduled.

We have stayed at this hotel almost every time we go to Chicago and this was our first time visiting as a family. We have now realized that although it is wonderfully located close to restaurants and that it has free parking, it is not the best hotel if you need to use a stroller for your little one. Our...

You just can't beat the price of this hotel. We usually go to Chicago twice a year, and this hotel offers everything we need. The free parking just can't be beat!

The parking attendants were helpful, and always had smiles on their faces and always someone on duty attending to the parking garage. The Hotel was... More

This hotel is a fantastic value for the room rate itself. Add to it they provide free parking and its truly the best deal in town. The parking attendants were absolute dolls. So sweet and friendly and helpful. The front desk staff was fun and warm and out going. They greeted us every morning and every time they saw us.... More

I will start by saying the hotel is in a great location. We were able to walk to the Navy Pier and all the shops on Michigan Ave. The free parking was awesome if you don"t mind risking door dings. The parking area is very tight. The pool was a little chilly, but nice and had plenty of towels. The... More
