We stayed at the voco for Chicago Marathon weekend and thoroughly enjoyed our stay - the hotel and lobby were beautiful, there was great energy throughout the building, the 24 hour market was super helpful for those early mornings, and the security at the front desk made us feel safe and secure. We loved our stay and will be back!

Good place for weekend stay

Very nice staff. Great views of the city. Comfortable bed and clean room. Nice big TV in our room. Quiet. Only complaint would be it was too warm on the 15th floor. Definitely not a dealbreaker.
