Having just stayed 4 nights, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Chicago is a great city and the Hotels is well located within the city centre within walking distance of many of the main attractions such as Miracle mile and millennium park. Getting around Chicago is not difficult, we used public transport buses and the L train, all of which are... More

The original plumbing fixtures(25-30 yrs old) still exists and needs to be updated. The toilet in our room was not bolted down to the floor and rocked back and forth when you... More

I stayed in the with a friend from the 5th -9th of April. I couldn't say enough for the hotel. The check in was so fast and our room was beautiful. The lock on our bathroom door got stuck shortly after we checked in. My friend was stuck in the bathroom but she was fine. The hotel maintence staff delt... More

I stayed at Westin River North in February. To be fair, location is very convenient, lobby is nice - rooms are ok (bathroom definitely on the old side). It'd deserve a good rating in principle But my experience has been extremely disappointing: arrived there on a Sunday evening (around 7pm) after a long intercontinental flight. Checked in just to discover... More

Stayed here as part of a convention in early April. Conveniently located to dining and shopping although in the mornings it's not easy to find a quick breakfast/coffee house nearby. I had a partial view of the river from my room. The room was standard for a business hotel and the bed was comfortable, but somewhat soft for my tastes.... More

Absolutely recommend this hotel. Great location. Every member of the staff was incredibly helpful. I felt like a princess from the minute that I walked in the door. We had a conference and the conference planner, concierge, front desk team, banquets team and AV team surpassed all of my expectations. From a leisure perspective, I was able to take advantage...

We stayed at this hotel as part of a conference and I’m thankful they got a great rate because the normal rate for this property would have been outrageous for the quality of staff and rooms. First off rooms weren’t ready when we checked in which made us bell check our bags. The desk clerk wasn’t apologetic nor did she... More
