Chicago Hotels with Balcony

From our initial checkin we were greeted with friendly staff! They were happy to help in any way possible to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The room was clean and plenty big enough for 4 us, 2 Adults and 2 Teenagers. Clean with everything we needed. Gym for one of our sons, printed schoolwork for another and provided great tour information. The Hotel is located in absolutely the best position for walking. Surrounded by restaurants, shops as well as having their own kitchen on site. We had a Buffett breakfast on our last morning which was great. AC Hotel provided us a perfect start to our family holiday. We will be back in 2023!

The hotel is quiet, convenient transportation, close to the highway intersection, less than 50 meters is the food supermarket and electrical store, convenient to buy food and daily necessities, the hotel is cost-effective.

I had a very good experience staying at this hotel. First of all, the hotel room is very comfortable, the bed is neat and clean, and it provides me with a good sleeping environment. In addition, the hotel's facilities are also very complete, including free high-speed Wi-Fi, air conditioning, mini bar, etc., which met all my daily needs. The hotel's restaurant is also great, providing a wide variety of food options, allowing me to enjoy delicious dining services during my stay. More importantly, the hotel's staff have a very good service attitude, are enthusiastic and considerate, and solved various problems I encountered. Overall, I am very satisfied with my stay in this hotel.

Hotel is very close and convenient to O’Hare airport. Very spacious lobby area and enough staff to check you in fairly quickly. Hotel bed was excellent but room was a little dated. Electrical outlets are not three prong. Room service to 11 PM was helpful for a late arrivals. Always are very bright and decorative.Bathroom entry doorway is narrower than usual with a very compact bathroom.

Can only say that the location of the hotel is very good, on the gorgeous mile head, next to the Water tower place, downstairs is the Canon goose and other monopoly, walk to the famous, beautiful Lake Michigan, 4, 5 minutes, go to the 360 Chicago Building Just 2 minutes, and the favorite Chicago Art Museum! Chicago travel is a great choice, breakfast is a standard American breakfast! They are all single-pointed. Looking for a good season to go to Chicago, will choose this hotel, it is best to choose a lake view room!

This is a pleasant, modern and airy hotel in downtown Chicago. We enjoyed our stay very much, but didn't eat in the hotel (apart from one snack in the bar), so I can't comment on the cuisine. The room was a good size, spacious and comfortable, with an excellent modern en-suite shower and toilet. The bed was large and very comfortable and every night afforded us a good night's sleep. What was particularly notable was the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff, in particular the concierge (Ramon), who guided us through the available sights and eateries in Chicago, which saved us considerable time in research. Chicago is a fascinating city, with all the modernity and dynamism of Manhattan, but without the grit or the slightly abraisive denizens of that island. We found all Chigacoans we encountered to be pleasant and engaging. However, Chicago is built on two levels, the lower level being under all the main roads that are elevated and therefore walking anywhere in the lower section is far less pleasant than on the upper section. I mention this because the main entrance to the Gwen hotel is on the lower level so when you exit onto the street it's advisable to climb the stairs around the corner to go up to 'street level'. Also, if you're not going to the hotel by taxi but by public transport (as we did) you'll have to carry your luggage down the stairs from the upper level where the bus stops. Additionally, the arrangement of the lifts in the hotel is a little irritating (and confusing to start with) because the lift from the main entrance doesn't go to the levels where the bedrooms are. The main reception is on the fifth floor so you have to go to reception and then walk to another bank of lifts that take you onward to the bedrooms and conference rooms. The Gwen seems to be a business hotel first and foremost and so there is a lot of activity and many people in the building for conferences and exhibitions. The terrace area by the bar affords a pleasant view of the cityscape, but there are two huge TV screens that perpetually show sport, so many of the guests on the terrace are there to watch a game. However it seems that there is no public place in Chicago that doesn't have TV screens on all the time, showing sport (the city seems to be obsessed with sport). Every restaurant we went to had multiple screens on, even high-end establishments. To a Brit this is weird because its only pubs and bars in my country that have these intrusive, mind-numbing displays. We enjoyed our stay at the Gwen and can recommend it for a pleasant stay as a tourist. its location is good for reaching many parts of the city and public transport is cheap and extensive. If we return to Chicago we will definitely book to stay there again.

The staff was so welcoming. We flew in a bit early but Jeremaine made sure to get everything squared away so that when we checked in it would be smooth sailing. He offered to hold our bags which was huge plus because we packed pretty heavy. In knowing we were out of town guests he gave us great recommendations, asked us our plans and helped give us a window into the city. Additionally we were explained all the areas that were available to us as guests for WAH areas until our room was ready. He confirmed my phone number and as promised we received a phone call when our room was ready. When Simona called she was very nice and upon arrival we got the same quality of hospitality as Jeremy offered. I would recommend this property 100 times over. The common spaces were nice and accommodating and the property for our stay was as well. I have only been here a few hours but I love it here.

This hotel was stunningly located across from Wrigley Field. We loved the location with Shake Shack, Chick-Fillet and other amazingly great local resturants like Dagostinos Deep Dish Pizza. The location had a neigborhood feel. So clean. Hotel service was amazing. Lobby was amazing with a full resturant and lobby bar. Room was amazing with a view to Wrigley Field. We could see to inside of the stadium the ivy grown wall and beautiful green field. We did a tour of the stadium. They did not recognize me as a Titanium Platinum Lifetime member. It was a woman and she did not have a very cheery punchy attitude. It was weird. But the facilities held up. Just clean and perfect. We stayed Oct 7, 8, and 9th and so this woman needs some coaching. She seemed quite unhappy.

The hotel is very clean and tidy. The biggest feature of the room is the floor-to-ceiling windows. The scenery outside the window is very clear. Although there is no bustling Michigan Avenue, it is still good! There is a bar on the 18th floor of the hotel, not big. The hotel has a restaurant on the left side of the hotel entrance, named Somerset, in the room can also book this restaurant in the room dinning, about twenty or thirty minutes to deliver the meal to the room. I really like the bathroom's minimalist wash suit, which is white tea, especially fragrant and comfortable. Shopping, dining and entertainment are nearby. Not far from there are Chinese restaurants, such as Imperial Lamian, Old Sichuan, MingHin Cuisine, Shanghai Terrance, which are just a few minutes from Uber. Royal chef and old Sichuan are very popular! It is also 10 minutes from the hotel to the famous scenic spot Michigan Avenue, which is also close to Navy Pier and Millennium Park. The fly in the ointment is that the sound insulation in the hotel is not good, the guests from the opposite side of the room can hear the opening of the door, but the overall is good!
