“An absolutely stunning luxury hotel! The Fairmont Chicago exceeded all expectations. Our room was incredibly spacious, elegantly furnished, and offered breathtaking views of the city skyline and the lake. The beds are remarkably comfortable, ensuring a perfect night's sleep. The location is unbeatable—just a short, easy walk to Millennium Park, the Art Institute, and fantastic dining spots. From the smooth check-in to the attentive housekeeping, the service was flawless. Highly recommend!”
“Great hotel in the middle of downtown. Valet parking $88 per day, or parking in the public garage on the backside of the hotel for half the price. Very clean rooms, housekeeping several times a day, mini bar loaded and the cashews/gummies bears are delicious. View is also excellent and friendly staff. My only negative comment is the line at check in. Waited probably close to 20-30 mins just to check in on a Monday, so I can only imagine a weekend line.”
“I would recommend staying here. It was a great location, easy walk to the magnificent mile & Millennium Park. We used SpotHero find a very affordable covered parking with In-N-Out 24 access that was literally in the building attached to the hotel. Hotel staff was very nice. The room was a nice size, we had a nice view and a little couch in our room. That was nice to sit with a glass of wine and look out on the city, especially because it was 20° outside. The bathroom was very nice with a shower and a bathtub. The restaurant Was really nice for breakfast and the menu look good for dinner, but my wife is Gluten-free, and The only thing I really didn’t like about the hotel was that their menu didn’t seem to take gluten-free very seriously. There were a few items on the menu that said gluten-free, but obviously have gluten in them. But I said the cocktails were really good and the vibe was awesome. Our bartender was very nice. A lady in the bar needs her phone charged, and the bartender grabbed a phone charger out of his bag, And let her borrow it. All in all, It was more than I expected to get for the price. Very nice experience.”
“The ladies (Montea)in the gold room were more than accommodating. They greeted you each time and welcomed you back. The gentleman at the service desk who was in charge of the gold service provided us with timelines and delivered our keto us. Alex in the concierge’s service was personable and welcoming. The door men showed themselves friendly and at your service. Our overall experience was great.”
“We stayed at the Fairmont Millennium park in Chicago last week during Pokemon go. I am so happy that we chose this hotel. We stayed in a suite on the 27th floor and it was absolutely perfect. We asked for a rollaway bed and extra fridge and they brought them within 10 minutes. The restaurant, Toro, is absolutely delicious and the food is reasonably priced. The drinks were crazy expensive but that's the cost of drinking in a city. Everyone who worked there was polite and helpful. The only con is that it is dark but I am old and I feel like every hotel doesn't have enough lights in the room. I definitely plan to stay there again next year. Thank you for making our stay carefree and comfortable.”
“We were pleasantly surprised to have our room upgraded and a late check-out added to our stay. Our room was spacious, clean, comfortable and had an amazing view. I had the best facial I've ever had at the Leaf Spa.”
