Hard to find much of anything to complain about here. The desk staff was incredibly helpful and pleasant, always greeting us as we returned to the hotel. Just had new carpet installed in the main lobby, which despite the "new carpet smell", was nice to see that they refresh the place a bit. Rooms were adequate, clean and well maintained.... more

The staff are very friendly. The location is perfect for walking to all Chicago has to offer. The rooms are bright and clean. There is a great bakery 2 doors down. Great pizza next door. Only thing negative the hotel needs to be freshened up a bit. more

We were very pleased with our room. We booked through Perfect Escapes and got a free room upgrade to a remodeled room with a view of the river. When we checked in we were told we had a late checkout as part of our package and to call and tell them what time we wanted to checkout . When we... more

The two of us stayed 4 nights for a first-time trip to Chicago and found Hotel 71 to be perfect for what we needed. If you can afford the upgrade, definitely book the Premium/River View level rooms. The riverside views from this hotel are beyond excellent, something you would expect to pay at least $400 a night for and we... more

I stayed for 6 nights at Hotel 71 for a conference. I would strongly recommend staying in a "river view" room. They have the best view of Chicago for a very convenient price! It is in the heart of the city and close to many places. But if you are looking for luxury and entertainment in the hotel (SPA, swimming... more

My boyfriend and I have stayed in this hotel in several different rooms, the first room was a suite and it was fabulous, the second was one of the more expensive rooms with the most beautiful bathroom, very clean and very spacious. The third stay was just a regular room, and it was still very nice and spacious and clean,... more

The view is breathtaking, and just a stone's throw from Michigan avenue. The room was very large, and so was the bathroom, which was very pleasant. Good value for money, I would return there without hesitating. more
