Hotels near Field Museum in Chicago

The hotel is in a great location! Close to main attractions and lots of restaurants! Main staff was not very friendly. Hotel is beautiful when you enter. Rooms are very old and need updating. The toilet in my bathroom had a corroded tank and a broken lever. That was a bit frustrating. Bed was very hard!! Room was very cold! Only one thermostat for the entire hotel. There is no individual thermostat in each room. Had to ask for extra blankets. They did provide that for me. The fitness room is very nice! Every thing you need to have a really good workout! They indicated they are in the process of renovating rooms. They’ve just not completed that project yet. I would stay there again if the price was right. Hopefully next time I’ll get an updated room!

It's a good hotel for the price. Location is excellent with Museum Campus Metra station right in front and bus stations nearby. You can also walk to downtown. There are Walgreens stores and a Target store nearby so you can buy anything you might need. It was cold in winter but the heating was good. Radiator had some noise but ear plugs can easily solve the issue. Definitely a budget option. I was happy with it because it was a business trip.

Our family if 4 had a two queen room on the 27th floor, with a partial view toward Lake Michigan (picture out the window attached). Picture upon arrival of the lobby, in the room and bathroom also attached. Picture in the restaurant & bar is also inserted. Breakfast is not included at this Hilton Garden, but the downstairs restaurant was good. This Hotel is a very easy walk across Michigan Avenue and RR tracks to the lakefront, Field Museum, Shedd Aquarium, & Soldier field. From the airport we took the Blue line to the Lasalle station and walked about 20 minutes to the hotel.

It’s just a very standard Samsung hotel with basic configuration. Before I checked in, I didn’t expect it to be the lowest-equipped Hilton I’ve ever stayed in the world. I have to bring everything except the daily coffee machine, shower triangle set and hairdryer. It’s a bit like a family. The hotel has a stove, an empty refrigerator, and a lot of tableware, no baths~ It’s quite comfortable for two days for business travel The breakfast is very average, probably because the epidemic food is very average and it is not allowed to eat dine-in tableware. It is also a one-time take away. The location is good. Because it is very familiar here, there are no worry about eating in the surrounding supermarkets. There is a Starbucks, and there is an Asian restaurant on both sides of the house. Both are small plates. (My boyfriend and I have discussed for a long time and I don’t know how to translate). There is also a milk tea shop when I go out, but I didn’t try it because I don’t like sweets. I live on the 17th floor, which is relatively east. Half of the window can see the lake view. Although the location of the hotel is not particularly good, the view is still quite beautiful Since I prefer to stay in a better hotel, if I don’t consider the location, I would not book it again~

While attending a conference I was worried because there were no rooms at the conference location. I found Le Meridian Essex and booked my week there. I must say everything was phenomenal from the time I walked in and throughout my stay. Hotel staff were kind and more than willing to help. Taniya, Natasha and Jazzlynn at the front desk were always patient and friendly. Concierge was helpful and welcoming. The hotel provided a good voucher each day for the Grant Park Bistro where again the staff and quality were definitely 5 star! As for my room, it was clean and had many little amenities to make my stay comfortable. I would definitely recommend this hotel for everything I have mentioned above as well as its beautiful convenient location.

This is probably one of the best hostels I've stayed at in the U.S. I've stayed at this hostel twice now. The first time was in 2015 and the second time this past month for Market Days. Location: The hostel is centrally located in Downtown Chicago/the Loop. It's easily accessible to get to and from O'Hare Airport via the Blue Line which runs 24 hours. The closest CTA station is Jackson Station which also has connections to many other CTA lines. The hostel is also located within walking distance to many other tourist hotspots like Millennium Park, Broadway shows, Lou Malnati's Pizza (10 minutes), etc. There's also a CVS Pharmacy at the corner of the street that sells liquor and other essentials. On the weekday, the area is bustling with downtown workers, but on the weekends, it's like a ghost town. Most restaurants and stores close by 8/9pm. The only place to eat at if you have a late night is Taco Bell which closes at 2am. Another downside is that there are a lot of homeless people that have set up camp in front and around the hostel, so some people may feel unsafe walking around. Security: The property is very secure. There are multiple entry points to get into the hostel with a key card. There's another entry point to get access to the elevator banks that lead to the rooms as well as required card access to go upstairs and into the rooms. There's also a 24-hour front desk. This was a saving grace for me because my flight from New York was delayed that I ended up arriving at 3:30am. Keep in mind, if you plan to arrive after 3am, you should notify/call the front desk and let them know otherwise they'll mark you as a no-show and cancel your reservation. They also have storage lockers/a luggage room for a fee. Facilities/Amenities: My original reservation was for a 4-bed male dormitory, but there was someone sleeping in my assigned bunk. When you arrive, there is a fitted sheet, pillow sheets, a bath towel, and a face towel (no comforter). You are expected to make your bed. Since I arrived so late and my roommates were already asleep, the overnight staff (DJ) was nice enough to put me in an 8-bed dormitory that was unoccupied, so that I didn't wake up anyone. Both rooms were very spacious/high ceilings/massive windows with a lot of space to store luggage and walk around. All the rooms have lockers (bring your own lock or buy one at the front desk). In the 4-bed dorm, there is a common area with a kitchen/bathroom that connects with 2 suites. The 8-bed room is setup where the toilet, shower, and sink are all in separate areas instead of all in one room. The shower area has dispensers for body wash, shampoo, and conditioner. There are also common showers and toilets on every floor. The downside of the dormitory is that you can't control the temperature of the room. Summers in Chicago are hot and humid and the room was kept in the 60s, which I loved. But, my roommates thought it was too cold for them. The WiFi access is very stable and fast. Th

We got lucky and got an okay room with no significant health violations. The facilities are very dated but we expected that by reading the reviews. One alarming factor was that the locks did not work at all. The check-in was okay, but the receptionist was not very communicative.

This hotel has a very good location and convenient transportation. Although it's a bit old, it's neat and clean, in line with Hilton's signature. It's a great stay experience. I'll come back next time.

Let me first of all say that I was truly looking forward to stay at The Blackstone. I had saved all my points to put toward this stay and sadly it was ruined BEFORE I even got there! Days before my stay, I called to see if I could possibly upgrade. I spoke to Diana who was truly nice, helpful and professional. Unfortunately, it kind of went downhill froM there. The next day, I called back to confirm whether I needed to be present for the checkin. The call was answered by someone who from the beginning was very terse! When I tried to ask her if Diana was still available, she was unprofessional and unbelievably rude. So I did what any guess would’ve done in that case and that’s ask who I was speaking with. She immediately fired back “I’m not telling you my freaking name!” I was immediately taken aback and when I tried simply get a word in, she kept bluntly and blatantly interrupting and talking through me. After listening to her yell at me for minutes, I ask her for her name again and “click” the line goes dead. I called back and was put on hold. Finally I spoke to a manager named Earline. She was nice and apologetic. She informed me that the rude employee’s name was Shandjana. She was even nice enough to offer me an upgrade to a Lakeside View. I told her that if she was willing to honor that plus free breakfast, then we’re good! I ended the call happy and was looking forward to my stay again! The next day I called again because as I remembered I never got my answer for regarding whether I needed to checkin in person at a certain time. I usually use Hilton and I can check in via app so wasn’t sure about Marriott. In fact, truth be told, I had stopped staying at Marriott bc of their customer service (or lack thereof). When I called, I spoke to someone named Jacquiea. I explained to her the back story and she confirmed that my room was locked in and I wouldn’t lose it. However, when the convo came around to breakfast, she mentioned there were no notes for it on my stay. I explained to her that I talked to Earline and mentioned that it was one of my concessions for staying after my rude in encounter with Shadjana. She said she would talk to Earline and get back to me. I didn’t think too much of it. I figured Earline would confirm what her and I talked about and we’d be all squared away. Unfortunately, the situation sadly got even worse. Later that afternoon, I received an email from Jacquiea citing that she never promised me a complimentary breakfast and that I wasn’t getting one. Again, I was puzzled as I KNOW I mentioned that as one of my concessions, but perhaps she (Earline) simply didn’t remember and that perhaps there was a misunderstanding. I replied saying such and reiterating to them that the purpose of those concessions was to do damage-control for shandjana’s immature behavior. In fact, the hope was they would say “perhaps there was a misunderstanding between Earline and you, but given the unfortunate behavior of our staff, we’re willing t

The small fridge in the room automatically shuts off after 2 hrs and doesn't stay at a safe temperature to store breast milk. The front desk advised to just use an ice bucket. This is problematic because (1) you will have to continually refill the ice bucket and (2) there is limited capacity. After an escalation to the manager, they offered to hold my milk behind the front desk in their fridge. I am not comfortable with that ”solution” nor do I want to go back and forth to the front desk for my baby's bottles and milk storage. He advised they previously provided medical fridges but they currently do not do so. I am so beyond disappointed. I expected so much more from this brand and now have to figure out something to do with my milk for my exclusively breast fed baby. Ugh, don't they have mother's stay at this property!? Marriott, do better!
