We love this Hotel and will coming again! The only strange thing was when the guest beside our room up and down his curtains its heard inside our room. And its scare me late at night. Other than that, we spent a fabulous 5 days at this Hotel. The Beatrix restaurant was great. And if you love strong coffee don't miss out!

A 30 min walk to the Navy Pier; local authentic restaurants including Italian, Irish and Mexican just around the corner. The best stay for Christmas and the New Year. Thank you for offering a brief housekeeping on Christmas Day and delivered the expectation upon checking in. Excellent location and service. Thank you for taking care of me. Happy new year!
