Wonderful location, nice decor and comfortable lobby area for relaxing. We also enjoyed the onsite restaurant, Perilla for a unique experience. All of the staff were helpful and pleasant during our stay. Would definitely return and highly recommend if you’re looking for something different than the typical chain hotels.

Property was nice and trendy. Great location near the river walk. Valet service was not the greatest and the front desk personnel on the night shift were less than helpful. During the day service was as I would expect from a hotel of this caliber. Spacious rooms with great coffee, tea, yoga mat, and air purifiers.
Coffee/tea set-up in the room. Love when I see an electric tea kettle in my room!
Large room with small foyer and detached bathroom. Nice natural light but no city or river view from this side of the hotel.

We stayed here for three days in a river view room and it did not disappoint. The room was spacious, and the window seats to enjoy the view were an amazing touch. The hotel was clean and modern, and in a great location for walking to the mag mile, Millennium park and more. We will definitely stay here again the next time we’re in the city!

I liked the proximity of this hotel. Very conveniently located (super central location) and rooms were great and free coffee bar available with common lounge area. I did not like the front desk service as much. Not clear answer and the person who admitted us was chewing gum the whole time. I asked if the room had any views. They were transparent that they were fully committed but I would have appreciated them willing to check at least, especially Expedia VIP access I had but I didn't get any.

I will give you more than five stars more than anything for the gentleman that received us at the door Antonio!!! The hotel was great. The room was amazing but the service that Antonio gave us was like no other. He knew how to promote the hotel. He actually gave us a tour of the river view room. I’m in the hospitality industry so I do admire and respect someone that has so much passion for their work. Congratulations Antonio and the excellent work you do.
