From 11 PM until 1 AM our room was vibrating from the loud House music in the Gameroom directly above us. Then from 130 AM until 530 AM all of the dumpster in the Alley directly outside of our third story window were being emptied extremely loudly. We were able to sleep from 530 until 9 AM.

The Chicago Athletic Association Hotel is the most charming hotel in the city of Chicago. My wife and I recently got married in Chicago and one of the highlights of the weekend was hanging out at the hotel! It has a roaring 20's vibe with the dark woods in the main lobby and the large game room which is a fun place to get a drink and play chess/pool. Amazing location close to the Amtrak, Chicago subway, and the South shore railroad. And it's across the street from Millennium Park. Most importantly, the staff is very professional and attentive and will go above and beyond to make your stay perfect. I always stay at this hotel when I go to Chicago because of it's charm and service. I would never stay anywhere else because it's a truly unique hotel in an awesome location with the nicest and most professional staff. 10/10 recommend to anyone!

great hotel with strong history vibe and post industrial style room interior . great location that closes to a lot of major destinations. But for the size and facing of the room(basically looking at the other back of building about 20’ of distance), I think it’s overpriced.

Great stay as always- beautiful property, rooms, Game Room is a gem, and excellent staff; just a couple notes: Bring back The Milk Room! The lobby seating was less inviting with so much turned over to assigned-seating dining. Can the hotel offer at least complimentary coffee/tea for guests? I prepaid for breakfast but still had to pay $5 per cup of coffee.

The common areas are grand and beautiful. Lovely gothic interior. The room was lacking. Nothing grand or luxurious about it at all. Quite basic and plain. A real contrast from the lobby. No extra amenities or touches as I would have expected in a higher priced hotel suite. Go have drinks there but stay elsewhere.

Room was average. View of the HVAC was less than impressive. Room alcohol and drink prices on the rooftop were more than Las Vegas. Not a good value. Nice old building with character but not worth the high price to me.
