I was not impressed overall and honestly expected much more from a 4.5-star hotel in Chicago. Check-in with the concierge was smooth, and the staff was polite and efficient, which I appreciated. However, the condition of the common areas left a lot to be desired. The hallways and entrance carpets looked unclean, and the elevators also did not feel particularly clean. The lighting in the entrance area was poor and gave off a rather uninviting vibe. Service was inconsistent: I requested a blanket one night, and it took nearly an hour to arrive. Access to water was inconvenient—only two bottles were provided, and there weren’t enough fountains. Offering reusable bottles for guests to refill would be a much better experience. The in-room amenities were disappointing. Towels looked worn and old, the shower had weak water pressure and limited flow, and it was unclear what room service was available, if any. Overall, while the staff was professional, the property itself did not live up to the standard I was expecting. Definitely not on par with what a 4.5-star rating suggests. Will not return and certainly do not reccomend.

Although it’s a nice conveniently located and clean hotel in the downtown area with great staff, ask for a printed invoice when you check out rather than get an e-invoice. And the reason for that is, we were going to be charged for parking for 2 days ( parking isn’t cheap in Chicago at all) although we didn’t even have a car! ☹️ and also for a meal we didn’t charge to the room. They were all reversed but was a bit disappointing.

Wow! That's all I can say! But, I'm going to find the words to say more, because this hotel and its great staff deserve it! I booked this hotel a while ago for my husband's surprise birthday vacation. It was a total of 6 of us, I love IHG! This one is definitely 1 of the top locations that I've visited in the past 15 to 20 years. I'm talking conveniently easy to locate, and very kind staff. Everyone, from the door person to registration staff, to the cleaning staff was so courteous all the time! They speak when they see you. They hold doors, and they answer questions! Our first great experience was with Shay and Andrew. We arrived a little early, a little too early to check in, and was told that they sold out the previous evening, and there would be a wait to check in. These 2 individuals were very helpful with allowing us to store our luggage and provided great recommendations for things to do while we await our room. Their enthusiasm and personality were top-tier. And to be honest, they looked great! They were the perfect representation of what I want to see when visiting a business. This dynamic duo spoke very well, provided great professional, genuine, kind service. These guys are gems! Management, make sure these two get anything they want and everything they deserve to keep them representing IHG. I've written so much about the staff, I forgot to mention the décor during my stay! The décor was amazing! 5 Star Stay!! Highly recommended !!

Our room was comfortable, clean and exactly what we needed for the trip. I wish the room came with a coffee maker and I didn't have to request one but at least that was an option. The hotel was nice and close to everything we wanted to do.

First, I want to say that the Kimpton Gray is a beautiful hotel. The location is excellent, the ambiance is elegant, and my room was spacious and beautifully decorated — truly impressive in terms of style and comfort. Unfortunately, the overall experience was significantly affected by an ongoing issue with housekeeping during my stay. On the first day, after spending the entire day out exploring Chicago, I returned to find my room had not been cleaned. I was told that a "Do Not Disturb" sign was on my door, but that was not the case. I didn’t make a big deal out of it and simply asked for fresh towels and for the trash to be emptied, which I received. The next day, I was personally asked by housekeeping if I needed service — I confirmed yes. Later in the day, while changing outfits, I answered the door in a robe and was told they couldn't clean the room unless I left. I said no problem and mentioned I’d be heading out shortly. However, when I returned several hours later, the room was still untouched. At that point, I raised the issue with management. While they did offer complimentary breakfast and wine, it felt like a minimal gesture considering I was checking out the next morning — making the offer more symbolic than helpful. I truly appreciate many aspects of the Kimpton Gray, but consistent room cleanliness and responsive service are essential for a hotel of this caliber. I hope this feedback helps improve future guest experiences.
