It was perfect for our needs - and the service was unparalleled. The location was perfect for the theater weekend we had planned. Our room was lovely, if small, with very comfortable beds and a view of Macy's with its lighted Christmas windows. The desk personnel, housekeepers, and bellman were all very attentive - as well as the servers at... more

We visited Chicago the last weekend in October. Yes, Halloween weekend. Not that that affected our review at all. The hotel is right in the heart of Chicago. Perfect location. It's on the corner of State Street and Washington. A couple blocks one way is Millennium Park. A couple blocks the other way is the Chicago River. A short walk... more

Hotel Burnham brings life to a historic building. Room was unique and kept clean. Common areas were very inviting. Food in downstairs restaurant (Atwood Cafe) was excellent, but it was closed on New Year's Day and so we had to find another place to eat. Other than that, hotel stay was excellent and location was super convenient for seeing all... more

Got a great rate on this hotel on Priceline (due to the weekend I did book about 8 months in advance). The staff was wonderful to my family and myself the entire weekend including providing my son with some free... more

My wife has MS and cannot walk long distances... more

The hotel is located centrally and it was easy to get to my client. The staff was generally knowledgeable about the area and gave good restaurant recommendations. more

The room although small was perfect and given it is an historic building -understood. Loved the Atwood cafe - wish more hotels had cool places like this to eat- Will definatley... more

This hotel is a real discovery! We liked staying there so much that it may be the reason we go back to Chicago again. A man we met on the elevator agreed; he has been staying at the Hotel Burnham for the past 12 years! EVERY time he comes to Chicago. This hotel is beautiful and comfortable. Everything from the... more

Kimpton offered me a great deal for being a Kimpton Intouch member, so I couldn't resist the offer of staying in the historic Burnham Reliance building in the El section of Chicago. The location is prime. Walking distance to the Art Institute, two blocks away from Millennium Park, one block away from the Cultural Center. And the shopping, watch out!... more
