A nice bit of luxury in the Loop
We love this iconic location. Rooms are fairly spacious and beds and linens are very comfortable.
Nice cocktails served at the Bolero bar upstairs.

I was assured that my room was "one ofnthr quietest" only to be assigned a room right across the elevator with a noisy in-suite HVAC and deep bass rumblings all night. Very disappointed as this is not the standard I've experienced at other Kimpton hotels in the past.

24 Aug 2024
This is not a 4 star hotel. Simple things like lack of drinking water in the room or coffee is just absurd. They use the cheapest toilet paper possible, etc.
Terrible acoustics and lack of proper acoustical glazing on the exterior cause improper sound levels in the room while garbage is hauled away in the middle of the night from the alley next to the property.
