We stayed at the Allegro over the July 4th weekend (4th - 6th). The location was great, and we got a great deal with parking included! Overall the experience was good and the hotel clean and very nice (beds very comfy as well). Although the elevators were very slow (we stayed on the 19th floor).

However, we had some questionable service however when we were there - started with the parking situation where we were told that valet was included and that we should move our car from self part to valet. That was a good suggestion but they neglected to give us the parking pass to get out of the self park (were told by front desk that b/c we just parked we didn't need it) which meant having to run back and forth a few times from the hotel to the self park (which aren't connected) to get everything ironed out. A little frustrated but were told that it was the guy's first week.

We arrived early and there were no rooms available so we left our luggage at the front desk (which is fine).... however when we did check in, they said that they'd send the bags to the room but 3 hours later they still weren't there. Called down to front desk and they showed up after... but was told that the front desk wrote the wrong room number on the tags and our stuff was almost given to someone else.

Asides from those mishaps however, the consierge was very helpful and the stay overall very good. They even helped us print out something when we checked out. Next time we want to stay closer to the Mag Mile however. Enjoyed Chicago a lot and would go back.

My 8 year old daughter and I stayed here on a weeknight and attended Mary Poppins which was right next door at the Cadillac Theater. It could not have been more convenient. The room and bath were very clean although small and the decor was a bit funky, but nice. The beds were very comfortable. The staff was very courteous and the concierge helped us with our dinner plans. The hotel had a nice wine hour and WII games for the kids. I would stay here again especially if attending the theater.

We booked the room with a very good 4th of July weekend rate and enjoyed Kimpton's usual good service and interesting hotel decor.

We planned an active and closely scheduled weekend with visits to the "Taste of Chicago", "Blue Man Group", and activities on Navy Pier. All within short taxis rides of the Allegro.

Only one hiccup in the planning was related to the stated hours of operation of the restaurant. Front desk and literature said 11pm closing, when actually it closed at 10pm. So we had room service, however our room not really large enough to enjoy the meal that arrive a hour after we ordered.

Room was clean and comfortable. Staff attentive and efficient. We valeted the car and rode taxis to all destinations. Had a bit of a problem returning one night as many streets closed for 4th celebrations.

Would return, especially at "specials" rate.

I've stayed in a lot of Chicago hotels for various reasons, usually just for fun, as I live just north of town and enjoy going out in the city every now and again with friends or visitors from out of town. The Hotel Allegro is both funky and sort of sophisticated, with a hip decor of bright colors, deco architecture and furniture, and flashes of fun and whimsy. The rates are very reasonable for a better hotel downtown, and there is a free wine hour in the loungey lobby for guests. It's right in the theater district, just a few blocks from State Street shopping, Millennium Park, and the Art Institute -- great location.

My room had kind of an odd shape, jogging over to the right after you opened the door, but it was quite comfortable and cheerfully decorated, with a cool mirrored desk that I admired. When I looked out the window to see the El tracks directly outside my window I figured I would not be getting much sleep that night, but the place has some good glazing on the windows, and the A/C blower helped to eliminate all traces of train and traffic noise outside.

Hotel Allegro, in my view, is a good bargain for the price in Chicago, with a great location and a fun, modern style.

Manager Jeremy Baker and his team of professionals are to be commended! Everyone was so helpful. After reading the room reviews i was leery, but the Premium King was large! The sink was small, but so what! The room was wonderful! We ordered a pot of coffee in the morning from room service and within 10 minutes it arrived piping hot with extra cream as requested. The coffee had bold wonderful flavor!!! My hat is off to Jeremy and his staff!!! They definitely added the Kimpton Touch that we keep coming back for! I highly recommend the Allegro Hotel! By the way, the sangria at wine night was also fabulous! :-)
