The Blake is in downtown chicago and a short walk to the Lakefront and an even shorter walk to a lot of really nice restaurants. Very comfortable room and excellent service. I'd stay there again, for sure. more

I was in Chicago for a five-day conference and stayed at the Hotel Blake. My SO came with me and we did some sightseeing as well. The room was extremely spacious, as was the bathroom, and there was a good-sized desk, a couch, and free Internet access. The hotel also served a light continental breakfast. The staff was friendly and... more

Stayed at the Blake with my wife while I was in town for business. It was a "mostly" very positive experience. The desk staff and the night door attendant were extremely helpful and polite. The room was slightly small. However, all the furnishings were up to date. The only negative was the day/morning door attendant got a little snippy with... more

Selected because of its central and convenient location, I was pleasantly surprised by the comfort of the room and the friendliness of the staff. Truly one of the best bargains in Downtown Chicago. Will be booking at least two return trips soon. more

Room was very spacious and very... more

Come to find out there was no mini frig., the computer access was unreliable (also am a student and had a paper due), the business office... more

Just back from 3 days in Chicago. We found the hotel blake in our lonely planet guide book. Excellent location, nice big room and friendly staff. Unfortunately the wi-fi connection was not working properly and breakfast was below our expectations, but on the whole it was a good choice more

We love Chicago and we love Hotel Blake. We have stayed there every summer for the past 5 years. We usually stay for at least 4-6 days. The hotel is in a good location and one can take a short bus ride to get to the Field Museum or just walk a couple of blocks to get to Michigan Avenue... more
