    I stayed here while checking out the Chicago Jazz festival. It is right in the heart of downtown and near many stores and restaurants. The staff was very friendly. The room was clean and nicely designed. The jets in the shower was great. It had a combination jet set up. There was also a nice sized tub. There was a workout room, sauna and spa. There was also a bar and restaurant.. This is a great place to stay. I do plan on visiting soon.

    This is a Two-Key Michelin Hotel, and it shows! Superbly appointed yet functional rooms, seamless service, a calming ambience with pastel themes, and understated luxury everywhere you look. While I was here on a work trip, I would not mind splurging on a repeat stay with the missus. Will be back!

    The Langham is absolutely stunning with exceptional service. I was in Chicago for work and had the pleasure of experiencing the Langham. To call the hotel is well-appointed would be an understatement. The lobby area, the bar, and the accommodations are impressive. I run out of adjectives to describe my wonderful experience here. The cocktail bar serves the very best drinks in the city, hands down. Located in the heart of downtown overlooking the River. It is perfectly located. Despite all the accolades, the prices also match the extravagance. My cocktails was $22, and others on the menu exceeded $30. I am not a rich man, but the Langham made me feel like King for a day. Five starts, easy.

    Really nice hotel. Comfortable bed and our room was nice and spacious. The location is really convenient as well. We enjoyed our stay here and would stay again.

    I will never stay anywhere else in Chicago again. This place is the best. The accommodations are beautiful, the location is perfect and the staff is exceptional. Also, there were lots of security precautions during the St Patrick's Day celebrations and always multiple staff at the front doors to assist. You need a keycard to get to the floors with rooms which I also appreciate. There is a Nespresso in the room as well as a fully stocked mini-bar with all sorts of things. They are not cheap so beware. I apparently had a half bottle of Sauvignon Blanc (basically two glasses) for a whopping $85 when I could have walked to Eately and gotten three full size comparable bottles for the same price but hey, I am not shocked. This is a luxury hotel and the prices reflect that. Alex, the concierge is a wizard, full of resources and suggestions, kind and communicative. Toya, who is in charge of turndown, she is the sweetest. The kids and I adore her. She is fun and spunky. Henna, who assisted us before arriving was beyond helpful with every bizarre request I had, concerns, etc. Context: I was coming to Chicago for St Patrick's Day as a single mom with two kids on an extremely busy weekend.

    Such a lovely spot! The staff here are incredibly friendly and welcoming -- you feel taken care of from the moment you walk in. The food was really good, fresh, and satisfying, and the location is excellent, super convenient and easy to get to. Overall, just a great experience from start to finish. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending this place to friends!

    I had the good fortune of attending a dinner event at the Langham Chicago, and as expected, the food was impeccable. I started with a simple green salad, a large bowl filled with light and crisp greens, tomatoes, radicchio and turnips, very refreshing. Followed by a burrata salad which had a large, plump burrata dumpling over a bed of greens, sweet plums and pickled onions with a few slices of toast. Then a filet of cod - soft and flaky with crispy skin, over a puree with cubes of potato and Brussel sprout leaves. And finished off with a chocolate mousse donut with a small cherry mousse adorned with gold leaf. And a deep cup of coffee. Excellent food, excellent service and a posh setting. If you have a chance to visit the Langham, go for it!

    See all

    Are the saunas included with hotel reservation, like the pool? Or are they a part of the spa, and require payment? Also, is there social distancing required in the pool and saunas, such that reservations are required for them?

    There are two sauna rooms, one steam room and showers (cold and regular) in the Chuan Spa locker rooms on the fourth floor. All hotel guests have complimentary access to those amenities; simply register at the Chuan Spa front desk to receive a key… 

    What room location is most desirable? We seek quiet.

    This hotel is city, expect moderate city sounds. So absolutely worth the stay.

My first night when I couldn't get up to the roof, I tried the restaurant downstairs. Also closes at 11pm. 10:20, hostess says they just called last call. I said cool I can order a drink. She said no they just called last call. I went back and forth with her and gave up and checked with the desk and they said they close at 10:30p. Then someone else said they close at 11:00pm but will call last call at 10:30 to help with the kitchen. and then confirmed, well they closed a little early that night. If you're thinking you'll get rooftop access or anything here. Look elsewhere.

    Hampton Inn majestic will let you relive the Chicago fire!!!…read more Was not a fan of their elevators since they kept jumping from levels 6 and 7 and would randomly stop without being called. The last Hampton inn I got stuck in the elavator and had an off experience with getting help, so I chose to use the stairs. Upon using the stairs we were met with SEVERAL linen boxes blocking our only exit. They were all in different directions and could not be easily rolled out, especially when we were blocked behind them. Instead we had to parkour over it to escape. There was a valet driver sitting at the front and ignored us after I asked for help and continued to say she's just valet she can't do anything. These bins were there for well over an acceptable time, blocking the only stairs and fire safety exit but also for people that didn't enjoy their sketchy elevators. And again, pallets were there days later also blocking the ONLY emergency exit and stairwell exit. Completely unacceptable in a normal city let alone one with history of building fires. Exits should not be blocked and it's clear the building uses this space for "storage" often. Before the fire situation even happened, their breakfast situation was insane. Our first morning was on a Monday. Their service is until 10 am and around 9am we headed down for some fuel. By that time, the dining room was packed, the tiny buffet room was empty of food but packed with people who were waiting for tables, chairs and all of the food to be restocked. One woman was trying to run the whole operation while two men just stood behind the concierge desk and watched the shit show of breakfast service happen in front of them. Someone should have helped her get breakfast together. Even if it wasn't their job, in hospitality, their job as hotel manger or anyone who works in the hotel is to make sure the guest have a pleasant stay, not to look pretty sitting in front of the Hampton inn welcome to Chicago sign. Overall unorganized and not something nice to look at when you first walk into a hotel lobby, chaos. You would think the grievances would stop there. However we were then denied the benefits that we get as gold Hilton members. Previously at hiltons and Hilton branches we have been offered two bottles of water per room per day. Most of the time they would be offered upon check in (which they did not) and given daily throughout our stay. This time the concierge allowed my mom just to go grab them out of the fridge. The next day we did the same and the concierge Robyn gave me immediate backlash even after I said we were previously allowed to take them. She repeatedly said I was wrong and gave no hospitality to hear my side of the story. I didn't want to cause a scene and returned my water. She then slammed them onto our table as I was eating breakfast with my family. Definitely could have been better ways for her to deal with the problem and I did not appreciate the hostility coming from the concierge at 9 am. We were already all crammed at a small table because there are no seating arrangements easily accessible for families or even enough seats in the dining room. One star because housekeeping did great and my room was clean and refreshed when necessary (and because zero is not an option) Otherwise I would hope I never have to stay here again.

The staff were somewhat friendly until different things started to come up... 1st issue: Friday night the elevators completely stopped working. Big problem due to having a small infant and needing to get the stroller down. We were staying on the 10th floor. But an even bigger problem was that we started to notice floods of people come on our floor and notify us that there was not an exit even via the stairs!!!! My husband got on the phone with the front desk and the reply was "you are just going to have to wait for the elevator." This was completely unacceptable and UNSAFE- what if there was a fire? What if something dangerous was happening and we couldn't get out of the building? This itself would have landed this hotel at a 1-2 rating. The elevator issue didn't fill resolve itself for our whole stay- only 2/3 were in service and they took 5-10 minutes to show up each time. Seriously inconvenient. 2nd issue: they put one of our rooms (we had 3 groups) literally next to the pool. Kids were screaming their heads off beginning at 6:30am and it would carry on until 10pm. When SIL called down to the front desk she was told "sorry that's just how it is and it should quiet down soon." Again, completely unacceptable. We had young children and infants who needed to nap and go to bed early. 3rd issue: we asked for a late check out since our flight was later and we needed to get our baby to take a nap- after all of these issues they said they would extend it to 1:00, which was nice. We did then ask if it could be extended another hour and we were told it would cost $25. Fine... what was not fine was when there was banging on our door and someone walked in at 1:25pm to clean the room. It woke up our baby and completely defeated the purpose of us extending our late check out and paying the extra $25. 4th issue: apparently they don't clean the rooms unless you are staying for 3 or more nights? We didn't know about this and assumed we would get new towels since there is a sign in the bathroom saying "hang towels to reuse" or "if you would like new ones, place them on the floor". We needed new towels so we followed what it said and then were told our rooms wouldn't be cleaned or even checked to see if we needed new towels. Good things I will say: - very convenient area - provided a pack n play - Starbucks in the hotel - hotel room was clean Would have love for this stay to have been better since the Marriott is well known and usually a great place to stay.... but the lack of customer service makes it hard to want to book another room at a Marriott hotel.

Everything was great until I checked out and discovered that I had been charged $88 per night for parking. That was quite unexpected.

So the JW seemed affordable within the mix...at $700+ a night... I've stayed at a few JWs across Asia and the US. For whatever reason this one didn't seem to meet JW's normally high standard. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I think it started with the lobby and bar. It was always overcrowded and noisy, and just didn't feel very intimate or elegant. That followed with the fact there's only one restaurant in the hotel and both times we visited it was nearly empty. It's tucked on the second floor back in the corner, and just feels like a standard obligatory hotel restaurant. The food was good but the ambience was just odd. The room was well-appointed, including a comfortable bed and soft sheets. And the bathroom had everything we needed. But the service day-to-day required follow up. They forgot to restock coffee, water and cups a few times, and when I called the front desk they delivered in a trash bag. There is a daily service charge that I believe is $50 a night and provides Wi-Fi, access to gym, and a free class. We went to use the gym to access the sauna and steam room, but learned that's part of the spa not gym so had to pay a separate per person charge. The spa was refreshing but fairly standard. Not like the Seoul Marriott with multiple heated baths and a cold plunge. Call me spoiled. Don't get me wrong, the hotel is very nice but for $700 a night and knowing what I know about most JW's this just seems slightly below their standard. I wouldn't pay that much again, but would come back for a more affordable rate.

Both have incredible views but I would definitely recommend having at least one meal on the Miru patio if you are there during nice weather. -I was most surprised by their massive gym and has stunning views. It's also open 24 hours. They offered Pilates classes as well for an extra fee. -the hotel is brand new and all the finishes are so high end. The rooms are clean and quiet. The hallways are huge and felt like a maze to navigate but it also added to feeling of privacy. -there were so many high end details that made it extra special (the cozy Frette bath robes, welcome drinks, treat box in the room upon arrival, and the accent lighting in the room). -the location. It's just across the river from the heart of Michigan ave on the north end of a residential development. You don't feel like you are in the middle of the chaos of the city but the park, lake front and river are footsteps away. Negatives: -view was underwhelming ( fourth floor river view . Might choose the park view next time. I'd also recommend not facing the river as there was lots of honking/noise. -the room layout was awkward. They have this huge desk between the bed and tv. The full length mirror is a down a long hallway from bathroom/ where you would be getting dressed. -the room service comes on these huge heavy trays. The staff seemed like they were straining under the weight of it/ it was awkward. -I'd probably skip the spa/massage -$90/ day parking. Was able to do a spothero for about $40 next door.

The rooms are still in good condition, (in my opinion) some of the sofas are dated but the most important part when I stay here is the bed. It's not a mushy old mattress, they're great with support and comfort. The hotel is in a great part of River North, close enough to walk to the lake, or the Mag Mile. Even closer are top class restaurants and specialty stores, along with plenty of places for nightlife. Thanks for another great stay here! I'll be leaving for my flight home in a couple hours.
