The Kimpton was wonderful. Staff was so curteous, kind and paid attention to every detail - even calling me by name after just one meeting. We were in town before check in and they kindly parked our vehicle and kept our luggage until check in. The hotel was stunning, clean and very comfortable. In walking distance to all that Chicago has to offer. We will definitely choose the Kimpton again!

Everything was ok except my room wasn’t in a good window view. Not sure if it was because of who I am.

Medicare condition but great location

This was once a really charming property, but has lacked upkeep and the updates that have been done have are low in quality. We didn’t have fully hot water for the first 24 hours, and after that it was decent. We opened a drawer to get an extra blanket and it was mildewed and smelled of mold. The manager’s response was that she had forgotten it was even there (she did say she was going to dispose of it). The breakfast is decent, but the happy hour consisted of stale packaged cake and carafes of unknown red and white wine. On the upside, the location is fantastic and the room was very spacious.
