Guests appreciated the clean and spacious rooms with comfortable beds and good bathroom products. The staff received frequent praise for being friendly, helpful, and accommodating, with special mentions like the bartender Jose and employee Christopher. The hotel's location downtown was considered excellent, close to public transit and city attractions. The lobby and bar area were noted for a modern, well-lit atmosphere with good vibes on weekend nights. Facilities such as free parking, a fitness center, and amenities like air conditioning and WiFi were valued. Several guests found the check-in process confusing due to the poorly marked desk located behind a busy bar area. Some rooms were described as small, lacking closets or microwaves, and with uncomfortable pillows or heating issues. Noise was occasionally an issue, such as from nearby trains or other guests, although top-floor rooms were quieter. Complaints included misleading refund policies and inconsistent room assignments despite loyalty status. The gym was criticized for limited equipment and overcrowding during peak hours.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The lobby is a tad small and took us a second to find our check-in desk.

I was pleased with the room we were in. It had a nice view, a comfy bed, and a decent amount of space. The bathrooms products were also really nice, compared to other Marriott hotels.

The front desk and kind and helpful.

We had no major complaints. Not even the train, but then again, we were on the top floor. Although, one small thing popped up: we couldn’t find ice on our floor. It is on the 6th floor, just to the right side getting out of the elevator.

We had a good time here.

Room was quite large, very clean, and thebbed was comfortable.

Side note: the current trend in hotel bathroom lighting is muted, yellow lighting, which is really difficult to get ready to.

I had such a pleasant stay at this hotel to celebrate my birthday! The room was glamorous and big! The staff were so nice and helpful. The restaurant and bar is so cool and food and drinks were amazing. Jose the bartender was so funny and awesome! I already want to come back!!!

Great hotel. Downtown direct! NO parking

I stayed at the Midland recently in Nov 2025, while in Chicago for business. I selected it because I prefer Marriott hotels (platinum elite Bonvoy status), and our office is literally in the building next door. The JW and LaSalle were sadly outside our approved price range.

For anyone who doesn't want to read my full review, here is the short summary - this place is a DUMP. Nowhere near worth the $300+ per night cost during my trip. I'd put this hotel in a tier alongside a Motel 6. I would only stay here again if the rate was closer to $100 per night.

The location of the hotel itself is fine. Steps from nearby Quincy station if you want public transit, plenty of nearby restaurants and coffee places.

My first impression upon arrival was one of confusion. I walked in what I thought was the front door (and actually really is), only to find myself in the middle of an extremely busy bar. I looked all around and could not figure out where the check-in desk was. Looked for signage and found none. I meandered about aimlessly for a few minutes and finally walked back out to the street. I decided to look for another entrance and found one, just west of the main entrance. This other entrance sidesteps the bar to get to the elevators, as I found out, and from there I was able to locate the check in desk. This design is DUMB. Had I chosen to weave through the busy bar to the back corner, I would have ended up at check-in, but I had no reason to think I'd have to walk through a bar full of people to get to a check-in desk. For pete's sake Midland, please hang a brightly lit 'check-in' sign with a neon arrow or something, it's not obvious where to go!! Also, due to the check-in desk being literally steps from the bar, you'll have to yell at the staff member, since the music is so ridiculously loud.

My room was unsurprisingly (always the room I get when I book through our Firm's travel agency) was directly across from the elevator bank on that floor. Apparently Elite status means nothing at the Midland, nor do my preferences in my Bonvoy account. (see more info about my room experience under Rooms)

Overall, I would not recommend this hotel to anyone (unless you can get it for $100/night), and it is an extremely subpar Marriott property. While it was a convenient location for me, I'd rather choose another Marriott option next time, even if I have to be blocks away. There are just too many negatives with this place.

I stayed at The Midland in Chicago and honestly had such a great experience. The staff really went out of their way to accommodate me, and I appreciated it more than they know. A special shoutout to Christopher — he was an absolute delight. Super helpful, patient, and genuinely kind the entire time. Little things like that make such a big difference when you’re traveling.

Overall, the hotel was comfortable, clean, and the vibes were on point. I’d definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

good cozy room

Very pretty building. The room stayed very cold and hot water didn't work one night. Still comfortable enough but wouldn't pay the price
