I was apprehensive when my friend told me she booked this hotel for our July 4th, Taste of Chicago trip. Why? because the price was really good considering it was so close to Millienum Park. However, the hotel was better than i thought. We was in a great location. The park was a 5 min walk away, buses and trains... more

I stayed here for a conference. We got a discounted rate since there were so many people booking rooms which made it more affordable but otherwise it would be very expensive. more

Stayed for two nights while attending business meetings. Room was lovely (although a very long walk from elevator around three corners which as a waoman I dont appreciate). Well furnished, safe in the closet ,and a smallish but well fitted bathroom. One thing missing was an in-roomcoffee maker. My only complaint is that when I arrived I had to carry... more

I only stayed at the Palmer House Hilton because my meeting was being held there. The hotel is old and shows its age. The bathroom is small and the sinkpost was ducttaped. The walls are paperthin, every night I could here the crying baby in the room next door. Saturday night, a drunken guest a few doors down woke everybody... more

We stayed at this hotel for one night during the last weekend of August so we can enjoy downtown Chicago. The good: The lobby was beautiful and our room was nice enough. The location was also great and 2 blocks from Grant Park which made sightseeing super easy. Also it was one block away from most buses, the red line... more

We arrived after a trip from sunny maui only to arrive to a rainy chicago. Got to the hotel to find a grand interior lobby although busy looked the part. The room was a different matter. a single room with a double bed a very tight to space to say the least. We were probably unlucky but thats life! more

I wouldn't recommend this Hotel for a Family Trip because the rooms are extremely small, however the room was nice. DIdn't have much of a view but we did get it for $85 on Priceline so I didn't expect a lot. The room was nice and clean and service was great.. Lobby is out of this world beautiful if you... more

We were very pleased with the friendly, accommodating staff and our great room. We picked up our Go Chicago Card and our Grayline trolley pass in the gift shop there at the hotel. The location was great for accessing parks, museums, shopping and wonderful dining, either by walking, or nearby trolley and public transportation. We had a great lunch in... more
