At The Guesthouse Hotel you will find boutique shopping that features local artists and designers, a 24-hour front desk, and a mini-market. Other facilities offered at the property include meeting facilities and a shared lounge. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Clean and fresh suite. Stocked with everything you might need if you planned on cooking. We did not cook but appreciated the full size fridge and coffee pot. Found Clorox wipes under the sink (my husband was sick and wanted to wipe down some surfaces). Needed scissors to cut off some tags and was pleasantly surprised to find some in the first drawer I opened. Beds were very comfortable, bathrooms well appointed.

The Buckingham Hotel is a boutique property centrally located in the heart of Chicago’s Financial District, perched on the 40th floor of the iconic Chicago Stock Exchange building.

Each guest room features free WiFi and streaming TV, along with thoughtful amenities such as tea and coffee-making facilities, a minibar, a comfortable seating area, and a dedicated work desk—ideal for both business and leisure travellers. I have stayed here three times already, and this is the best hotel in my opinion! The staff is very friendly and accommodating, the location is excellent, and the parking is safe, convenient, and reasonably priced! Coming here has added so much to my Chicago trip, even the bathroom amenities are perfect! I love this place, and if I come to Chicago again, I will definitely choose to stay here!

Just 2 blocks away from the shopping, dining and entertainment on the Magnificent Mile, this boutique hotel is located in the heart of downtown Chicago and offers spacious rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows and upscale amenities. The location is amazing and the room that I was assigned was massively big. It was very comfortable and walking distance to all the nice spots in Chicago.

Featuring designs and décor inspired by the Chicago World’s Fair, every room at the The Royal Sonesta Chicago River North offers a 37-inch flat-screen TV with in-room fitness channels. Rooms also include large bathrooms with designer bathrobes and designer bath amenities. I requested a fridge on the 2nd day, and it was brought immediately. Didn't realize I had to request it at booking. They kindly gave me a discount when I mentioned it at check-out.
