This property is a hidden gem. I would give it 10 stars if I could. The hotel itself is an icon in my opinion and very well done with a baron the reception floor, a restaurant on the floor below, and a dinner restaurant upstairs. Quiet and convenient. Very safe, just a gorgeous property with Starbucks and another breakfast place inside as well. Staff was exceptional, rooms and amenities perfect , clean and well done. There is also an old school barber onsite downstairs as well on the building. Will be back and would highly recommend over many of the other mid to high end hotels, just fabulous

Very decent hotel but less than expected for Kimpton brand. Hotel seemed a bit run down despite apparently being redone 10 years ago. Furnishings in the room were lightly banged up. Windows in the room were small and oddly placed so limited visibility outside (lacklustre view on adjacent building which I was told was "good view"). Common areas were underwhelming in terms of appearance and vibe, and slightly inconvenient that 2 closest elevators are reserved for staff.

I had a great stay at the Kimpton. The staff were terrific and my room was perfect - comfortable, quiet and roomy. When I booked I didn’t know enough about the city to realize how central I would be, but I walked everywhere that I wanted to go to - the lake, museums, restaurants in the west loop, the opera - all within an easy walk. Loved it.
