Warwick Allerton - Chicago in Chicago

The hotel is in a good position and facing one of the most beautiful avenue of Chicago. Regarding my experience, the room was nice and clean. The view from the windows was nice. The staff was polite and available. The main disappointing point was the internet connection which was not working well. I would consider to stay again on this hotel but if you need a good internet connection for working this could not be the right choice.

Overall good

I'd like to recommend this hotel to anyone who plans to stay in Chicago for a while. It's perfect, and the service is wonderful, all very nice and firendly.
The location is very convenient, and the place itself is clean, comfortable, and well-maintained.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a reliable and comfortable stay

We stayed at the Warwick Allerton during our Chicago visit. 2 adults and 6 children. The hotel was in a fantastic location on the magnificent mile, and a short walk to Navy Pier. The hotel was clean and staff gave us free bottled water. The only negative was paying $70 for parking. It was valet and we expected to pay a lot in the city but not having access to our car was a bummer!

The hotel’s best value lies in the location — 3 min to Starbucks Roastery, ~ 15/20 min walk to the magnificent mile, and close to subway stations.

But lacking certain facilities which I consider necessary to ensure safety of solo travellers (access to different floors only by room keys, and a safe). Also the bed in the room was close to the door, so I could hear the elevator bells and people’s conversations in hallway.

For housekeeping, overall the room was well-cleaned. However, the housekeeping staff still knocked on the door trying to come in the room, when I hung up the “Do Not Disturb” sign.

Overall, good hotel for a short stay.

Every aspect of staying here was excellent. I was in town for a convention and they allowed me to ship my inventory ahead of time to store it there. There was never any attitude or hesitation about helping me, and every employee I spoke to was very friendly. Great location on Michigan Ave made it easy to get around. When staying in Chicago, this will be my first choice every time.

I got a great room - temperature adjusted nicely with the wall unit, tv was fine, bathroom was super clean and the bed was sharp looking. I loved the bar on the level with the Lobby and loved the little cafe in the morning. I was only a little disappointed in the pillows, which was a nitpick. Only major disappointment was the door linking to the adjoining room must have not been very soundproof - the people next door to me were making noise at 3-4-5 in the morning.

My wife and I spent our honeymoon at this hotel. We had asked in advance about any possible special touches for the occasion, but were told this was handled by management and would be addressed after the weekend, despite our stay running from Thursday to Monday. Unfortunately, nothing was arranged. The (paid) breakfast was also limited, with only one option available out of the five or six listed. On the positive side, the location is excellent, and our room was more spacious than during a previous stay. However, cleanliness could be slightly improved. Overall, the price is reasonable and I would still recommend the hotel, but it’s not without its shortcomings, and the lack of attention to our honeymoon was particularly disappointing.

Attended a trade show in March. The hotel offered great value for money and even had a free shuttle bus to the exhibition. It's located right next to the Magnificent Mile, making it perfect for shopping 🛍️. You can also visit the largest Starbucks and Harry Potter next door. Chicago 360 is also very close by. We even got to experience the lively atmosphere of St. Patrick's Day. The location is excellent! There's also a Chinese restaurant nearby, which is perfect for satisfying a Chinese palate, and a famous deep-dish pizza spot not too far away.

Considering US prices, this room rate is really cheap. There's an unavoidable resort fee of $29.35 USD (including tax) charged daily. So, you should definitely make full use of the in-room coffee machine and the gym upstairs (though I didn't use either, even though the coffee was Starbucks – I just went across the street for my Starbucks fix). At check-in, they put a hold on my credit card for a deposit, the exact amount of which I wasn't sure of. Based on my credit card notification, it seemed to be roughly the same amount as the total resort fees for my stay, rather than the standard $100 per day. (I asked, and they genuinely don't accept cash for the deposit, so no need to exchange too much cash; I just used my card for everything). You do have to go to the front desk daily for bottled water. But I thought the front desk staff were all really nice! Especially one slightly older but very elegant Caucasian gentleman. That's because I kept pestering them about the deposit amount and then, at check-out, I kept asking for a receipt for it, haha. In reality, the amount they put a hold on at check-in isn't actually charged. They only charge you after check-out for the resort fees multiplied by the number of days. You can still ask for a breakdown, and it's just $25 + $4.35 per day. No need to worry about waiting for a deposit refund to show up on your bank statement. Also, storing luggage on the first floor costs $2 per piece.

The hairdryer is wall-mounted, but it's not like those weak ones; it's quite powerful enough. The showerhead is also fixed, not a handheld one, which made washing a bit difficult. The sink faucet for hot and cold water is very responsive; for someone from a warmer Asian country who was nearly frozen outdoors, it was great not to be surprised by the water temperature from the sink.
