The rooms were rooms, the view was fabulous and the restuarant was a hotel restuarant. It wasn't the Ritz, but it was very nice. It's in the Chicago Sun Time's Building, across from the merchandise mart. A ways away from the hustle and bustle of Chicago, but it gave us some exercise. There is a McDonalds and Duncan Donuts in... more

We couldn't have had a nicer time at the Holiday Inn Chicago Mart Plaza. My husband, daughter, and I live in Chicago but stayed there for the weekend of our wedding anniversary just to be closer to the downtown attractions and play tourist in our own town. The staff was SO sweet and so very friendly. --As nice as any... more

We stayed in HI MP during the back end of May 2009, while spending half term with my other half. Chose Chicago on the experience of a one day business trip back in 2005 and thought it would be good for a long city break. I must say we were not disappointed, it is a great city with lots to... more

This hotel was lovely! We stayed for three nights on the 23rd floor in May. The weather was about 85 degrees so it was lovely to take a break from sightseeing to relax in the quiet pool in the afternoon whilst it was too hot outside! The view from our window was wonderful - got the Chicago skyline looking North... more

Thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Holiday Inn Mart Plaza. Our room was fine and the view of the Chicago River the best. The hotel is atop the Mart Plaza, adjacent to the Merchandise Mart and the Brown Line train stop. Easy to get to anywhere via trains and a short cab ride to anything downtown or lake front. Excellent base... more

I used to travel to Chicago on a regular basis. I stayed on Michigan Ave. and it was noisy all night long. This hotel has lobby on 15th floor so it is up from the hustle and bustle, river runs on side or front so there is not heavy traffic. Was close enough to Michigan ave. that could walk and... more

I stayed at this hotel this past weekend and it was a great location for me. On previous trips I have stayed right on Michigan Avenue and that gets to be a bit crazy with all the weekend tourist! This trip I wanted to spend more time on State Street and Rush Street and this location was perfect for me.... more

Holiday Inns can kind of be a crap shoot, but this one was much better than your typical Holiday Inn. My room had a nice view and was large, with a comfortable bed. Earlier reviewers found it difficult to find....but I had no problem (the lobby is on the 15th floor, but there is a doorman on the 1st floor... more

Second stay here, this time two nights, enjoying the flat screen television, cozy duvets on the beds and the four pillows to luxuriate in. The lure of Earth Hour brought us back this particular weekend. The renovation is almost complete and the lobby area looks fabulous. Unfortunately, the new restaurant was opening the day after my stay, but we enjoyed... more
