Stayed here to go to Cubs game and then hang out in downtown area afterwards. There were 6 of us and no minivan taxis so we all crammed into one taxi. Was so far from downtown area we didn't go back there to change clothes because it would have cost to ride a taxi back and forth. If you are planning on being downtown for your outings my advice would be to find something downtown instead. We paid around $90 for our room. I'm guessing you could find something for same price but with more convenience. Took a limo back to hotel and the driver couldn't even find our hotel. It is a very nice hotel but just too far from everything. Self parking is $27 and valet is around $38.

We got a great deal through Priceline on this hotel. We were a bit concerned at first because of the location on the "South-side". Those fears are unwarranted as you probably won't be walking anywhere from this hotel. The location is a bit distant from downtown, causing you to rely on public transportation a lot.

However the hotel offers a free shuttle that takes you downtown. You are on your own getting back, but just grab the #3 bus and it drops you off right in front of the hotel. The shuttle driver was awesome! She even took us to the closest blue line station (to get to the airport) after we checked out, so we wouldn't have to pay for a taxi or fool with dragging our luggage on a bus. [I hope I don't get her in trouble for that, as that's not one of the shuttle stops. But there were only a couple people on the shuttle and it was on the way to downtown.] That's indicative of the overall service we received while at the Hyatt. Thank you Hyatt.

The hotel has all the amenities you would need..room service, onsite restaraunts, pool, fitness center, concierge, etc. Very nice decor, comfortable and clean.

My only complaint is the location, but if you plan accordingly it's not a big deal. It was our first trip to Chicago, so we weren't there to sit in a hotel. We got up and got going and didn't come back until the evening. We made sure to grab dinner before returning to the hotel, as there isn't much nearby, but we also ordered in from downtown restaraunts (Giordano's and a chinese place) and had it delivered with no problem. Hotel food is a bit expensive, but what hotel isn't? There's a McDonalds within walking distance down a few blocks and there's even one in the McCormick Place convention center if you need a meal in a pinch.

We even got adventurous and walked back to the hotel one afternoon/evening from the Grant Park/Museum Campus area. It was only a couple miles, but stopping to grab dinner on the way and admiring the scenery made it enjoyable. We (myself, wife and 2 boys (8 & 5) safe the whole way to the hotel (we took Michigan Ave to Ceremak).

I stayed at the Hyatt McCormick Place and was very impressed. The suite was beautiful, the views we outstanding. We were able to view a fireworks display at the Navy pier form our room on Saturday night - I wondered if Liz, the Guest Experience Manager, ordered that display for our party. Service was excellent, the suite was excellent and very roomy. The view of downtown Chicago and the lake were awesome.

The staff was great and helped us out by providing extra trash cans in the room. We had a get together at my suite after the graduation, 30 people and tons of food fit easily. The staff helped us transport the supplies and food in and out of the hotel.

It was an excellent location as I was attending an event at UoC. Access to downtown was very easy. I would very much like to stay here again. As a matter of fact, it was very hard to leave the room to head back home. LCD tv, great walk-in closet, nice living room area and very highly recommended!

I want to thank Liz and the staff for making my stay a memorable and enjoyable stay.
