Great but miss the Cherry Circle Room
Love the location and ambiance of the room. Miss the Cherry Circle Room which was my favorite dining and drinks part of the hotel on my last visit. Cindy's is nice with a great view and great food, but not as intimate and stylish as the Cherry Circle.

Great place for a cocktail, not an overnight.
This is definitely a 3 star hotel. The rooms were very hot & muggy with hardly any light (the windows open to a very narrow alleyway). In-room thermostat does not work and was stuck at 71 degrees our entire visit. Accommodations were cramped, bed was hard, elevator took between 7-10 minutes to be called which made us late two days in a row.
The common areas are very nice, but I will not stay here again.

Great first trip to Chicago!
The valet parking makes it easy to get in/out of the hotel area without stress. $79 a night is expensive but worth it to us. The customer service is top notch and everyone is friendly and professional. The room was clean and well kept. Bed comfortable. The only problem was that our mini fridge wasn’t working. When I notified the front desk, they apologized and refunded the $30 resort fee without me asking for it.

What a charming hotel! We loved playing a boar game in the Game Room before our dinner at the rooftop Restraunt Cindy’s! Such a great location, so close to Millenium station and the Fine Arts building. We came in to see a tapping of Wait Wait Don’t Tell me and had an absolutely fabulous time in the city.

The location is really the best thing about this hotel. It relies on that and the history of its namesake. Otherwise it’s just meh. And very overpriced.

Booked the Founder’s room. The fridge did not work. There were less windows/ no tub which is misleading from the listing. It’s a gorgeous space with some luxe details but misses

Noisy
Overall a great place to stay that’s well located. There was construction work happening that was incredibly loud and began before 8 am in the morning. I struggled to have virtual meetings in my room due to the noise. I wasn’t given advance notice of this by the hotel.

Will stay here again!
We stayed the day after Christmas overnight in a compact room with no view but the amenities in the room are great, the bathroom and bed were very comfortable and the hotel itself is beautifully unique and cozy. A lot of Bear's fans were staying here which made the atmosphere in the game room bar fun.
