I choose this hotel because of the photos online and the price for a package through Priceline. While I generally trust the site and I always double check with Trip Advisor obvisouly this slipped by me. I was greeted in the Lobby by a drunken guest, andf super loud doorman. I told the counter agent that my flight was 10 hours late, that I had a early morning meeting and she then put me on a floor with a girls night out party facing the street! The temparature in Chicago right now is 60 and my room is freezing cold. I called for a blanket and they told me that they do not have any more???? Huh?

There are no amenities here and my dinner was a bag of Hot Fries from the 7-11\ and if you park your car you are going to pay $39.00 to park. Are you kidding? Okay, I thought I had a deal but this is a dud...

I stayed at Hotel Blake at Chicago, Illinois from May 9 to May 15. The service at the hotel was great. The people at the front desk/doorman/cleaning lady were very friendly and helpful. The room was a very clean and nice.... bed was very comfortable. I love the location of the hotel. It's located at the south end of the downtown area. There are a lot of nice restaurants near the hotel. We walked to the Art Institute, Millennium Park, downtown and Michigan Ave for shopping. We caught a bus to the Field Museum, Navy Pier and Chinatown. The price of the hotel was very reasonable (we got a 30 percent discount for the spring sale at the hotel). The only complaints- no refrigerator and microwave. I will definitely stay at the hotel again and recommend it to anyone visiting Chicago.

I travel frequently into Chicago for business and this was my first stay at the Hotel Blake. I was really impressed with the Hotel and the attached restaurant. Check in / out was friendly, fast, and easy. The rooms were extremely nice and the overall facility was excellent. I would strongly recommend the Hotel Blake for business and leisure travel. Great value, great location, great place!

Although it's not situated in the middle of everything, all the main attractions of Chicago are relatively close and you can either walk there (which we did most of the time), utilize the buses/trains or take a cab. Cab rides to most places are about $10 (including tip). The hotel itself is nice, the rooms are spacious, the beds are comfortable, and the shower is very nice, but the thing that makes this hotel a great one is the service. The people who work the front desk as well as the doormen (Showtime in particular) are friendly, no matter what you need they are extremely accommodating. They will often ask you where you're going and happily give you tips and suggestions, sometime they even have coupons or deals. My fiance and I throughly enjoyed our stay here and would not hesitate to come back.
