“Best Residence Inn I've ever stayed at”

Residence Inn Chicago Downtown

4 of 5 stars
Cambridge, MA
Apr 27, 2008

I was very impressed at first with the room: all the fixtures and furniture looked new and stylish, and the tv was one of those new flat screen LCD wide screen types. My only complaints would be that the fridge is pretty loud when you're trying to go to sleep at night and that the shower, although new, doesn't have a tub so you can't take any baths. The breakfast and hospitality hours are pretty typical for a Residence Inn, which is to say that it's pretty decent for being complimentary. The location is excellent for shopping on the the Magnificent Mile and Watertower Place, going to the top of the Hancock Tower, jogging along Lakeshore Drive, and the "beach". All in all, the best Residence Inn I've ever stayed at, and I wouldn't mind staying here again if the Courtyard is too full or overpriced or if the James Hotel doesn't have one of its awesome Travelzoo deals.

“Musical and Shopping”

Residence Inn Chicago Downtown

4 of 5 stars
Springfield, IL
Apr 1, 2008

Booked on Priceline so wasn't sure what we were going to get. Hotel is 1.5 blocks off Michigan Ave right down from John Hancock building. GREAT LOCATION. Lobby was clean and room was large and clean. Elevator alittle scary but that is normal with older buildings. Parked alittle down the street for about 8 dollars cheaper than valet, not sure would do again.
Recommend Hotel great value for Michigan Ave area.
Not scary walking back to hotel at night from Cheesecake Factory.

“great hotel - great location”

Residence Inn Chicago Downtown

5 of 5 stars
Oxford, Michigan
Jan 12, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

Stayed at the hotel just after New Year's 2008. Stayed in a two-bedroom suite. Very roomy and clean. The beds were so comfortable. They had said that there was construction, as they are renovating, and we heard nothing at all. It was a Friday, therefore, the workers could have gone for the day. We had the breakfast in the morning and it was a delicious hot breakfast with eggs, biscuits and gravy, and an array of other breakfast items. Everyone I talked to at the front desk were very accommodating. We have stayed at this hotel for several years and still like this one. It is so convenient to the Magnificent Mile, Water Tower Place, and the John Hancock Center. It is a one to two minute to walk to all three. The Cheesecake Factory is located in the bottom of the John Hancock Center, so that is a great place to eat. I will continue to go back to this hotel when I stay in Chicago - it is great!!!!
