Me and my boyfriend were here on a weekend getaway and we enjoyed our stay here. The room was clean, great service and staff. The indoor pool was a nice size and the water was warm. We had a great view of the Lake and Navy Pier. It is in a good location and plenty of restaurants. I would definitely return to this hotel again.

Not throughly impressed. Had higher hopes judging by the pictures. Bathroom door was a barn door that doesnt lock or latch. No really child friendly. Seems like a hotel that caters to hipster / youngster tastes. Had to ask for a refrigerator, took an hour to get it. Then recieved 3 follow up calls asking if we ever got it. Beds were comfy. "City view" was terrible. Do not think i will be staying here again.

Nice that hotel close to beach. Rooms VERY small, bathroom crowded with little shelf space. Our room was really not very clean, especially grout and carpet, caulking old and separating from wall, water stands in face bowl because lavatory uneven. Workers on strike and demonstrators kept up a terrible racket of noise throughout our stay!

Nice Location - But...

Pros: Location and reasonable rates
Cons: Add a hot tub in pool area.
Location: Great location. Great view of the lake and pier. Walking distance to Navy Pier and to Michigan Ave. Short Uber rides to other area attractions.
We enjoyed staying at the W Chicago Lakeshore and were treated very well by the staff. We were even able to check in two hours early. But to be honest, if we had known there was no hot tub, we would have gone elsewhere. My husband has back issues and would have loved to relax in a hot tub after our daily excursions. Also, the hotel bar (the Living Room) is very nice but drinks are quite spendy; which you expect in a hotel bar but a whole $5.00 more than nearby bars and restaurants seemed steep to us. Also would have liked a fridge in the room and not have to pay extra for it.
