We stayed at Springhill River North the first week that it opened. It was exciting to stay at a brand new hotel and not have to think about worn or dirty rooms. I thought it was wonderful! They were still working out kinks (elevators not working occasionally - just walk over to the Residence Inn side and use their elevators) but the overall experience was great.
Location is wonderful. A decent walk to Michigan Ave (6 and 8 year old daughters did very well). A very short trip to the Rock and Roll McDonalds and Rainforest Cafe. Lots of night spots and restaurants in the area. A brief and cheap cab ride from Union Station. A short walk to the Navy Pier Free Trolley. Super nice and efficient staff. Really nice free breakfast - a definite step up from the norm (make your own waffle station, make your own sausage mcmuffins, generous fruit cups, yogurt, juice, cereals). The pool is small but adequate ...though we were there on spring break so lots of kids...I felt sorry for travelers attempting to get swim laps in!!
Room size was more than adequate...a bit cramped but what hotel room isn't these days? The bathroom is nice sized and it is really convenient to have a mini frig and microwave. Internet usage was free. It was great, also, to have the small sitting area.
I will definitely stay again if the price is right!!
