I had a great two night stay at the Hoxton! I stayed in the "cozy" room, and while it wasn't a huge space, it was well-appointed and had plenty of room. I thought the decorations and accents were darling throughout the hotel. Also loved the location itself - very walkable area with a ton of restaurant options. The hotel was also incredibly clean - housekeeping is fantastic. Vivian at the front desk really went above and beyond to warmly welcome me and resolve a billing issue with my company. The entire front of house staff was lovely. George, manager of Cabra on the roof, was also so kind and hospitable! We had drinks in the lobby, the roof, and speakeasy downstairs and each experience was really nice. I'm confused by some of the negative reviews - I will absolutely stay here again next time I'm in Chicago.
I like The Hoxton. It's like the west loop version of Mesler. Great spot of hanging out with a few friends and having drinks. And there's no shortage of people at the bar to just talk to!
We loved our stay at the Hoxton! It felt luxury and cozy at the same time. The staff were very helpful and friendly! We were able to walk to many restaurants and shops in the West loop and even ate at the restaurant in the hotel. The restaurant, Cira, had delicious food and drinks and was an easy late night stop. We loved our stay!
This hotel is very convenient and walkable for the area that it is in. There are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby when needed as well as some coworking spaces. The staff helping to book a corporate event was very helpful throughout and flexible with changes. We were lucky enough to get availability pretty close to our team meet up and appreciated the service. There is a coworking space within the building however it is booked up quickly and a little bit more expensive than other options in the area though it is convenient. The pool on the rooftop is very small, but it is nice to have one if you want to use it. There's also a restaurant in the hotel as well as a bar with live music in the basement. The hotel restaurant is the best breakfast option within a few blocks ** From what I heard across our team staying at the hotel, there was a consensus about the air conditioners, being very loud as well as some frustration that you can't sit in the lobby restaurant area unless you are eating. There wasn't a lot of space in areas of the hotel where you could do some work if you were a guest of the hotel, so if you are a very small team either plan to have your meals around working or reserve a space elsewhere. Otherwise, the hotel staff were very responsive by text when anything wasn't working, we didn't have any issues other than air conditioners throughout our stay. The only thing to share is that if you are booking for a corporate event, this hotel is very lively and busy no matter the day of the week. If you're wanting something more calm and relaxed, maybe book hotel out of the specific area.
Was in the mood for drinks and what better place to go to other than the Hoxton. Walking in the lobby is the place to be. The ambience is has an old charm but modern feel to it. On thr first floor is the restaurant Cira. The is plenty of seating in he bar area. It's filled with couches and tables and the bar itself can seat at least 10 people. This particular day they had a dj and it was a vibe! This was a great way to start my Saturday.
The Hoxton hit all my hotel high notes: steamer in the room as standard, hot water kettle and good tea, plenty of room to hang my clothes, and a Bluetooth speaker to facilitate in room dance parties. This location is incredible. Tons of shops and restaurants right outside the door. I don't play pickle ball but if you do, there are tons of courts opposite the hotel. I liked the Hoxton in London; I loved it in Chicago.
stopped in for drinks after dinner with the girls and it was a nice spot. The wait for the bar was a little long but our drinks were well made so it wasn't a complaint. I liked the ambiance and space inside. I would come back if they hosted an event or had a dj.
I was NOT a lodging guest; this was a mere stop along the happy hour route. Grab a cocktail on the rooftop. Cozy vibe with a great view of the City. The pool area is cute if you have a small group lounging on a warm summer day. Otherwise seating is endless both inside & outdoors. ~Christy
Came for cocktails after dinner. The music and atmosphere were better than the cocktails. I would come back for the music and vibes.
Ugh! What a fun TIME! The Hoxton was a treat and a half. We called upon arrival to see if any upgrades could be done, and not only were they able to get it done fast, they did it with kindness, professionalism, and such care. We were moved up to the corner room on the highest floor to give us a better view, they left a handwritten note and a bag of popcorn for us, and the room was absolutely quaint, and adorable. So much so that even without a smart tv (they're working on this!) I still absolutely give 5 stars. The location is a 6/5 and you get a great sense of the city without having to step outside because so many great restaurants and bars are connected! Lazy Bird is a special little fun way to end the night. The art around the hotel corridors themselves were stunning, the beds were comfortable, the communication via text was flawless and easy, checking in & checking out flexible, extremely professional and attentive staff, everything felt like a small detail that had been taken into consideration, with thought and a sense of experience in the interior designs and structures. From the stand out pink artwork hanging to the beautiful green bathroom tiles, the Hoxton is one of the nicest hotels in Chicago.
I spent 7 nights at the Hoxton Hotel in the west loop area of Chicago this month. It's really an awesome hotel. Beautiful place with great attentive service at the front desk, at the bars and at the restaurants. Room service and the room cleaning crew were great also. it has a huge lobby with a large restaurant and bar and is very spacious, modern and inviting. There is a bar in the basement, Lazy Bird, serving great cocktails and live music. I didn't go to the restaurant up on the roof. I also joined their Dis-loyalty program which offered a 20% discount on the first stay and 10% off all food and drink. Well worth the $18 a month cost with these discounts. The neighborhood is also awesome - many restaurants and bars within an easy walking distance of the property. I'm going back to Chicago and will stay here again!
This was the perfect place for a small team offsite. We stayed at the hotel and rented a conference room for a few days to work out off. A top notch bar and restaurant made it easy to grab meals and drinks for the day we weren't able to get out. The room is on the smaller side but that's what I expect when I am in a big city. The room was well decorated with lots of little touches that made it feel truly like a boutique hotel. The bathroom was beautiful with the tile and waterfall shower. The hotel just had so much character. During the day it was bright and cheery. Made you feel like you were in a coffee shop that you could work in all day. In the evenings, it transformed into a cool and trendy bar with 90's hip hop. Even on a Tuesday night it was packed with well dressed people stopping by for drinks after dinner. I even loved the funny little signs like the ones that said "stuff" for closets. The restaurant served delicious food that was a blend of American and Mediterranean. Everyone enjoyed their food. They also had a small coffee bar inside but I didn't try the coffee. I really loved the conference rooms here. They are perfect for groups smaller than 10. The rooms were cozy (and you got the bonus of the fireplace smoke smell from the bread ovens below). The space was well decorated and made you feel like you were in a classy library. You felt like you were working out of a WeWork. So much better than the boring and sterile conference rooms you typically get at a hotel. The gym is limited. It's actually a yoga studio with 2 Pelaton bikes and one rack of weights. If more than 5 people wanted to use the gym, it wouldn't work with the limited equipment. Wish it could've been summer time during our stay. I heard the pool is really nice. Overall this is a great boutique hotel at the heart of an amazing area of Chicago. Highly recommend.
I can't believe I just heard about this place but so happy I did!!! It's a great vibe and the bartenders are some of the best I've seen in the city. Don't get discouraged if busy because you will still be able to get a drink quickly. The drinks were also great. Only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is that a dirty martini was $25 and you really want to hang out here so tough to stay long with that high of drink prices. read more

Great service. Lovely design. Good location. Drinks were good at the bar. We came here for the bar and some food. Drinks and food were both decent. The service was good in that the waiter and bar tenders were actually pretty attentive and really nice, which is what earned this place 4/5 stars. read more
So glad we chose this hotel. It is very nice. Located in one of the best areas, West Loop. The pool was very relaxing and chilled. Downstairs is so nice, with the sunlight beaming through the windows and you could see the train passing by. I just love it! There are two restaurants, one in the main level and the other one is in the rooftop, highly recommend both. There is a speakeasy like bar in the basement. Pretty cool place. I suggested this place to a friend and they are considering of booking it in the near future. read more

This was a great hotel! It had a lot of smart choices like the check out process being a drop off box, a great bar right at the entrance, and well used technology in the room. I thought it had good amenities and probably one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept on. The only reason I don't give it a 5 is because it did feel as if they were trying a bit too hard with their hipster theme and it took away from some of the more practical needs. read more

We really enjoy this hotel. Their use of classic materials & mid century modern decor, cafe & restaurants inspired by global culinary traditions, friendly personnel, west loop location, and cute guest rooms are a gem in the hospitality industry. read more
The Hoxton is a hidden gem in Chicago's Fulton Market. It's an upscale hotel that is used for multiple concepts such as a open seating lounge, restaurant, and rooftop. I have been here on multiple occasions and the first thing I will say is the vibe inside. It is always happening and filled with all walks of people. Today, I sat on the main floor doing work and ordered a latte with a carrot cake. The latte was very nice and light, small hint of steamed milk and a light roast expresso. The carrot cake was deconstructed and had hints of pineapple drizzle, small cake pieces and mousse cream that was perfectly light and fun to make the whole cake come together in my mouth. This is a great place to chat, snack on small bites and enjoy a nice evening upstairs on the rooftop. Must see! read more

Just popped in to kill time before meeting up with a few friends. The bar area has a great vibe in a Saturday afternoon and the DJ was kind enough to take a few requests. We were seated on one of the couches and it was quite comfy. I ordered an el califa and it was really tasty! A little smoky and spicy - great flavor! We then had some champagne, and finished it off with an old fashioned. The old fashion definitely made it onto my fav old fashioned list - it had a really wonderful orange aroma and it wasn't overly strong. Plus they had large ice cubes which really make a difference. I would definitely come back for an old fashioned and the vibe anytime! read more

I went to the Hoxton for a Sunday afternoon happy hour. While this is a fine spot to grab drinks with some friends, there was nothing particularly noteworthy about the menu. I got the Cleric's Vice cocktail - there were subtle hints of citrus and honey-like sweetness, but it was not too different from an old fashioned in my opinion. I was quite hungry, and the garlic fries were more satisfying than the drink I had. Overall the Hoxton has good ambiance, and it's a nice place to enjoy good conversation over some fairly strong drinks. Brownie points for this being one of the few spots in Fulton Market that has availability without a reservation (at least when I went). But for the price (around $15 for a cocktail), I would have expected slightly more adventurous libations. read more

Spent the weekend downtown for a staycation to get out of the suburbs. The Hoxton offered a Wintertime Staycation deal which gave each room a $25 credit to whatever we wanted within the hotel. When we arrived, our room was not available even though we previously selected a 1 hour check in window. This was semi-understandable given it was Saturday and they had to deep clean because of COVID, however we chose the time to check in and sitting in the crowded lobby with our bags & masks on was not ideal. The room was great. LOVE the modern design and accents throughout the entire room. They provided a nice Bluetooth speaker on the nightstand to connect to which was a great touch for setting the mood/jamming to some music. The bathroom was beautiful and the water pressure in the shower was excellent! It was a bit confusing to figure out how to order room service with the $25 credit but we figured it out with a few calls down to the front desk. Overall, we had a great stay minus the waiting in the beginning and the confusing wintertime deal details. If you're interested in design this is definitely the place to stay as the interiors are amazing from the lobby bar to the rooms to the rooftop. Plus it's located steps from all the best west loop restaurants + the train! read more
Beautiful place, newer hotel about two years old-with two restaurants (Cira & Cabra (rooftop), a speakeasy/bar (Lazy bird), and a pop up shop. I'm not sure what the apartment is didn't get the chance to explore what that was. The lobby is a whole vibe very relaxing, chill great art and decor. Valet parking is $70, the chances of a meter are slim to none (Fulton market district) I DO NOT recommend driving. Free metered parking on Sunday's if you choose. The bathrooms are next level so nice and I loved everything about this place. Can't wait to come back. read more

As a local Chicagoan, it is always fun to check out new spots for drinks and bites with friends. I have to say the Hoxton is always packed and fun. The food at Cabra is delicious, the drinks strong and yummy, and the service impeccable. My only complaint is how hard it is get a table at Lazy Bird but I guess I can't complain that much!

Strangers semen in bed! You heard me... discovered this disturbing surprise during my stay and front desk acted like it was no big deal. They offered to change the sheets and to comp the raviolis I had ordered... I had to wait in lobby in my night gown while sheets were swapped. This was during a five night stay and was not noticed until my second night, so I slept in this nasty bed for 1.5 nights and the front desk thought an appropriate remedy was to comp a plate of pasta.... I've chosen to stay at Hoxton hotels dozens of times and have always recommended to friends. Have yet to stay again or recommend after this incident. Would probably fee differently if the situation was remedied appropriately. read more

5-star view from the SE corner (904) and great decor. Love the windows in the bedroom and bathroom for natural light. Good bed, good WiFi. The air conditioning sounds like a train taking off before it kicks on every time. The actual train noise (green and pink line) was manageable and we were lucky to be in a corner with nearly NO other floor noise. Wish there had been since more TV channels or options, though we didn't really intend to spend too much time in the room. Very posh food and bev spots. Lazy Bird in the basement has live music Thu-Sat! read more

We loved our stay at the Hoxton! The whole place has a very hip, upscale vibe, while also being very "chill" (the word used by the very nice woman at the desk). When we were looking for a place to stay one night in Chicago, there's no shortage of options. We wanted our stay to feel special (ie not a Days Inn), but also didn't want to break the bank. The Hoxton seemed like the perfect middle ground. In the end we were pleasantly surprised at the high end details, considering the value. We stayed in a "Cozy" room and I was a bit worried it would be too small. It was not! The room itself didn't have a lot of extra space, but half of the room was the bathroom-- which was amazing! We had windows all around that gave us a view of Chicago. The bed was super comfy. There's coffee, tea, OJ and milk in the room. Free breakfast of overnight oats and fruit is available if you fill out a bag and leave it outside your door. There are three bars/restaurants in the hotel, but as we were just staying one night, we didn't have a chance to check any of them out. We will definitely be back in the summer for a little rooftop cocktail / pool action. The hotel itself is geared toward a younger demographic, and it was refreshing! In Detroit, we have a few similar 'boutique' hotels, but I often feel out of place there because things are SO fancy, or like the business is trying too hard to be hip. The Hoxton somehow fell right in the middle where they ARE hip, but also welcoming. 100% recommend My only critique is that we had a bit of confusion over breakfast in the morning that wasn't easy to work out, and the tea-bag-style coffee in the room was pretty rough. There is a coffee shop in the lobby, but I do like a bit of coffee in bed before I get the day started. A note about the neighborhood -- it seems to be a VERY new neighborhood. Lots of new construction, hip restaurants, coworking spaces, etc. We went out earlier in the night and had a lot of fun at an arcade bar right around the corner, and there are a few well-reviewed restaurants within walking distance. Def recommend for a weekend away. read more

My friends and I were looking for a place to sit down and drink last night and we went here!! Their lobby is a great place to congregate over some drinks and food! The ambiance is intimate and the space is amazing! If you're ever in this area looking to just have a drink you can't go wrong with stopping inside! The menus at the bar is really good, so when it comes to drinks and some bites from the kitchen you won't be disappointed. read more

This is overrated, the room is beautiful but too small and they're extremely skimpy with amenities - no fridge, no tissues, tiny towels, no robes, and meh service - we had late checkout and got locked out preemptively, and they were slow to bring up a towel. The rooftop pool is small and unheated - next time I'm doing Nobu I think - had my mom visit me in Chicago and wanted to have a relaxing weekend. Just expected more at this price point. I do like the restaurants - theyre gorgeous and the food is great. Cira is cozy and cabra is beautiful but very crowded and loud - definitely need a reservation. Then they also wouldn't let us in the speakeasy bc apparently it was at capacity on a Thursday night read more

This will be the only hotel I stay at when I am in Chicago. I have to admit that I was a little anxious about staying here. I knew nothing about the place and the price was extremely low for downtown Chicago standards. I was immediately impressed when I walked into the lobby. Gorgeous layout and decor. It was teeming with happy travelers and locals. Turns out that The Hoxton is smack dab in the middle of an emerging neighborhood. Formerly the meatpacking district, it's now the home of many fantastic restaurants like Girl and the Goat and Au Cheval (best burger I have ever eaten). And speaking of restaurants .... Iron Chef Stephanie Izard's Cabra restaurant is located on the rooftop. If you stay here, you MUST eat at Cabra. The room was a fun blend of modern and industrial. Very cool. Great view! Probably the most important thing about staying at any hotel is the service. Matt, working the front desk, absolutely made my stay so much better than any other hotel in Chicago. Thanks again Matt!! It's clear that The Hoxton takes pride in the service they provide to their guests. And that, above all else, is the reason I will be back each time I visit. read more
We stopped by for drinks and dessert and had a nice time. It was busy so we didn't get a great seat but we were walk-ins. Definitely liked the desserts but the drinks were average. Wouldn't come by for the signature drinks but maybe just a classic cocktail or something. The drinks were pretty pricey for not enjoying them or being asked if we wanted a replacement. Nice ambiance and staff were friendly. Not sure if it's worth coming by again though. read more

Wow! I simply love the aesthetics of this place. First, you are greeted by a polite and cordial gentleman at the reception desk, who checks you in and makes sure you remember about the "breakfast bag" that you hang on the door--to request a fruit, juice, breakfast pot (overnight oats made of poppy seeds, dry berries, coconut cream, and honey). Then, you come up via the elevator (you will need your room card to operate it), to your room. The subject of this review is the room I was in--Room 727 (don't you just love that lucky number?). The room had two twin beds. For someone who has lived, watched Netflix, eaten breakfast (or lunch, or dinner, and anything in-between), on a King bed, I found myself wondering how the three of us (daughter, friend, myself) would manage to sit on the bed, let alone sleep in either bed. But after a while, my eyes had gotten adjusted to the size of the beds (kinda like your eyes adjust to the dark when you enter a room). The room is so pretty. The windows are big and tall, although this room had the wall of a building under renovation as the "view". But it doesn't matter. If I wanted a scenic view, I would go biking around Lake Michigan. I was wondering if none of the wall outlets were actually working, since my i-phone wasn't showing the "charging" sign. Ahah! You needed your room card to activate the power, didn't you? You might ask. Well, you're absolutely right. The bathroom has a walk-in shower, if that's important to you. It's not a huge bathroom, but it's not too small that you have to walk sideways to get in. And you can still close the door while you're sitting down on the commode without getting your knees banged up in the process. Can a second person come in and use the sink or jump into the shower? Why would you want to do that? So, the answer is, I think not. There's a "non-rip off fridge" that is stocked with a couple cartons of spring water in a 100% plant recycled carton, as well as a small carton of 2% milk--all complementary. But there's a snack shop downstairs should you have a hankering for a quick snack or two. Then there's the two restaurants within the Horton. One is called Cira. I am going to dinner tonight at the second restaurant, which is on the top floor, known as Cabra. A separate review is, obviously, coming soon. There's a coffeemaker (I nearly gasped, but fortunately did not pass out) upon realizing that the room didn't have a Keurig (it has become ubiquitous in nearly all the places I have stayed or visited in, hotels and offices included). But just like riding a bicycle, I did eventually come to my senses and recalled how to plug the coffemaker in, pour 4 cups of water into the carafe, and pressed the lever which I presumed was the "on" switch. Finally, I got to enjoy a couple of cups of herbal tea, made the old-fashioned way, by boiling water and brewing the teabag inside the cup. As far as Room 727 goes, don't expect a microwave oven. I didn't check for an iron, or a hair dryer (both non-essentials for me). Ok, I felt compelled to check for the hair dryer at least. There is one in the bathroom. Didn't find an iron, or an ironing board. What I did find is the overall effort of the Hoxton to go green. I'm pleased with that. I must mention that the Hoxton is in the Fulton Market. There are many places to satisfy everyone's dietary needs and/or cravings, just within this district. Parking--you have a couple of choices (at least the ones I know about). One, there's valet parking (not at all cheap). And then again, if you walk just a block up, there is public self-pay parking. I think I am paying $25 for a 24-hour parking privilege. Parking space comes at a premium, if you are lucky enough to find one on the street. By the way, the lobby is darkish--definitely not as brightly lit as other lobbies one might find at a Hyatt or a Ramada hotel, etc. So, it's cozy for some, maybe. Don't worry--I didn't feel as if I was walking into a dungeon in a medieval castle. Not that dark. But it did (briefly) take me to some imaginary place that is usually inhabited by mysterious creatures. Don't let my obsessive-compulsive hobby of taking note of the non-essential details deter you from booking your stay at the Hoxton. Next to the Blake Hotel on South Dearborn Street, Printers Row, I think that the Hoxton can comfortably earn a place in my Top Three places to stay at while in Chicago. Not counting staying with dear daughter in her apartment in the Logan Square area. Why am I staying at a hotel if daughter has an apartment, you might be asking. Long story, but the short of it--she's working late at the Cabra restaurant on the rooftop, so I thought this would be a nice treat for her (to take a break from taking an uber home every night). Best part of all--you'll get your fill of dog spotting! Yes, the Hoxton is dog-friendly. Yeah! Even the dogs who were checking in with their humans looked excited to stay at the hotel. :-) That's a "10"! read more
