I usually stay while in Chicago at the Westin Chicago River North, which is a bit nicer, newer and maybe a bit better located (for restaurants, for my taste.) That was booked because of a big convention so I ended up at the Westin Michigan Avenue. It's older and seems a bit dated -- not bad just nothing super special.... More

Located in the heart of the Mag Mile. Across from The Hancock building and historic Fire Station. Short walk to all you want to see. Rooms are updated, clean with great views. Quick check in and out. Wi-Fi is NOT free in rooms.

Perfect location for shopper and short stay in downtown Chicago. Easy access to most attraction. SPA is not what we expect, a rather very small one, yet surrounding area has many SPAs to offer. Basically loved the stay there

Wow! I used to go to this hotel all the time with my mom, dad and siblings when I was younger. We all decided to go back for a mini reunion. First of all, the hotel has not changed in 20 years. The rooms are still the same. Secondly, the bathroom was dirty and everything seemed a bit dusty. Two... More

Location is excellent but rooms and baths are small and don't come close to the definition of heavenly. One of our three rooms had a nice view of Michigan Avenue but the other two rooms had a view of back alley nothingness. One room had a smoke smell left over from the last guest. We misplaced a purse so searched... More
