We stayed here on a visit to Chicago during the Chicago Blues Festival this year. Everything we wanted to do was within walking distance. There is a Starbucks in the lobby which is very convenient. Rooms were on the small side, but new and crisp and clean. The lobby is a landmark. The staff was helpful and friendly, despite being... more

Wish we would have had more time to induldge in the perks of the Palme Lovely hotel. Very expensive bar. Try the Bar outside the main doors to the right Millers- great bar,Also, upgrade to the executive floors for private elevator and night time snacks and breakfast in the am. more

Hotel was beautiful, rooms were nicely done, and was perfectly located for walking to theater, Millenium Park, shopping. Hotel restaurant was just okay even though was hyped, but bar was nice and worth a visit. Corner Bakery just around the corner for inexpensive breakfast. more

Loved the ornate lobby. Could imagine the many years of fashionably dressed women sweeping down the stairs. Tea in the lobby was delightful. Courteous, helpful staff. Rooms were comfortable. Lunch sandwiches delicious. more

The train stop direct from the airport was about a 1 minute walk from the Hotel. Interior of the hotel was very classic and beautifully decorated. They've also converted the bar to a very... more

For our first stay in early October we declined an offer to pay $30 ($39 w/tax) for an up-grade to an "Executive Room", including snacks, happy hour hot & cold hors d'oeuvres, and breakfast. We had to... more

First off use Priceline. I got a room for $100 a night. The hotel itself was quite nice. The location can't be beat. You can walk to a ton of great stuff. The staff was really helpful. The Lobby bar was fairly hoppin at night. The room was smallish, but not too bad. I would stay there again in a... more

Customer service was wonderful. They would recommend places to go and great places to dine. The subway and bus stops are right outside the doors. Taxis are at your service 24hrs. The lobby is very beautiful and impressive. The lobby had couches and chairs that were serviced by the restaurant, so you could enjoy yourself there. The rooms were small,... more
