The Hyatt Regency is the largest hotel in Chicago and it definitely feels that way inside! It has a true convention type of feel. Tons of people, large crowds, lots of hustle and bustle. However, with all that said, there was no line to check in, to talk to concierge, in the elevator, or to check out. If you're just... more

Thank god I got this hotel through priceline. I can't imagine paying full price for this place. The tub was moldy and dingy. The toilet didn't flush. Their selection of TV channels was limited to say the least. Unless you wanted to pay $5 for a rerun of an NBC show. Oh, and internet? Why that will set you back... more

I stayed at this hotel for one night after getting it through Priceline. The price I paid was excellent. We found as other reviewers that you can really hear a lot of noise from people in the hallway. This did not bother my sleep but I heard people in the evening and the morning. We were on the 16th floor... more

Bad customer service, mediocre food in restaurants, and loud sums it up. This is a huge hotel. When I checked in, rooms came and went before I could answer the questions about "upgrades". They said that I could have a complimentary upgrade to a suite. When I found it it was one floor above the street, I knew it was... more

Loved the view and the location of this hotel, rooms are nice and comfortable. BUT I found it impossible to sleep without ear plugs--this is the loudest, least sound-proof hotel I have ever stayed at. I was on the 20th floor so street traffic wasn't bothering me, the rooms just aren't soundproofed at all from the hallway and one another.... more

Yes, this is primarily a convention hotel and the busy, noisy lobby attests to that but so what! Our room was very nice and classy-looking, and the service at the front desk and by the concierge was very friendly and efficient. We were on one of the Regency Club levels which meant we received a complimentary buffet breakfast and late... more

This is a convention hotel. It has it's own large convention space underground so it is tailored around the conventioneers. As such during these times you have thousands of people, conventioneers, spouses, business folks, bustling around constantly. Even as a convention attendee, I would have preferred staying at a quieter hotel in the area, and there are certainly many to... more

Stayed for a few nights on a late spring getaway with my wife. We were warmly greeted by the person checking us in and he was able to get us a room with a partial lake view. The room was nice, comfortable bed, large TV and a nice table with 4 chairs in front of the window. The view looked... more

I, too, was in town for a journalism conference and stayed at this hotel. It was one of six "official" hotels for the convention. I paid way too much per night for what I got and I am not happy about that. I most likely won't stay there again. The lobby was busy from the jump, but I expected that... more
