Albeit a strange hotel, it was a fun place to stay. It's literally in the heart of the stock exchange, so therefore on a Sunday, it was completely (and somewhat eerily) empty. It's right on the El Loop, so you can get to and from Midway very easily. The rooms were nice and big and the 40th floor view was... More

Located at the 40th Floor of the One Financial Place, the top, inside Chicago Loop, really close to every attraction and well connected to the O'Hare Airport in 45 min CTA Train direct from Terminal 1 and less the 1 Min from La Salle Stop. The Room was big and Cleaned Everyday, the Best thing is the View, we had... More

I agree with other reviews that the location is a bit hard to locate but once your arrive, this quaint hotel only offers about 20 unique rooms. Some have views of Lake Michigan and it has personality and charm compared to other corporate hotels. The staff is warm and friendly. Food is great too. Room has a mini-bar and the... More

This is actually located in a financial building. You will be hauling a 10 lb key around that is used to access entry and elevators very inconvenient. Now take elevator after elevator to finally get to your room. There is no pull up service so be prepared to haul your luggage down the street and through revolving doors to get... More

We thought this was a great hotel for our three night stay in Chicago. Yes, the security is unusual and the elevators a challenge the first time (it takes three rides to get to breakfast!), but the hotel is amazingly quiet, well-appointed and served. Then there's the view - we looked south and could see Lake Michigan at the left... More

Great hotel but better for a single on business than a couple on vacation. Not for families. Underground parking hard to find; needed turn-by-turn directions over cell phone from front desk. No help with luggage; had to make 2 trips over 40 floors with three elevator changes. When you park in garage, find the correct spaces because each section is... More

I loved this place so much I wasn't sure if I should write a review. I didn't want to let the secret out. It is close to everything. Amtrak? A few blocks away. CTA? Blue line is half a block away, all others are one block. View from room? Amazing. I almost didn't want to leave the room. I just... More

I have had the pleasure of staying at the Buckingham Athletic Club twice. Both times, though different, I experienced nothing but the finest views of Chicago and the most courteous treatment by the staff. The hotel is conveniently located withing walking distance of several Chicago landmarks, as well as the subway and Metra being located directly outside! We walked everywhere,... More

This was my second stay here and for some reason I was once again upgraded to a suite at a very reasonable price. The suite was very comfortable and I loved being able to go for a swim in the Athletic Club pool. Wifi reception worked well, the breakfat buffet was fine, and there was a coffee-maker in the room.... More
