Chicago is not a cheap city. So the Homewood Suites in downtown Chicago is great if you are looking for value for money. The hotel is very clean and the common areas don't look dated but the room we were given is surprising a bit shabby. It had that old closet smell in the beginning and the bedcover had to... More

This was our first hotel of our road trip. We stayed from Dec 23-25, 2011. Check in went well as we used the valet service and they helped us with our bags. It is a little odd that you enter to an ugly elevator area on the first and the actual lobby is on the 6th floor and then you... More

Had a lovely 1 bedroom suite with full kitchen. Price included buffet breakfast and dinner during the week. Also, got a great deal on parking at $10/night rather than $35+. Close to everything and within walking distance to Water Tower, Michigan Avenue, River North galleries, etc. Would definitely stay again. More

We stayed for 2 nights in December while a family member had surgery at Northwestern Memorial. The staff were great, very helpful and kind and eager to do anything that would make our stay better. The exercise room was great, one family member used it multiple times; the pool looked good but we didn't have time to use it. Connie... More

Stayed for two nights. Nice pool on top floor of hotel. It has a very good complimentary hot breakfast and very good manager's receptions Monday through Thursday. The hotel is a short walk from Michigan Ave and it is not a terribly long walk from the Willis Tower either. However, we had to change rooms three times because the air... More

A lot of what is said in reviews here, about the lifts being busy and all, really depends when you visit. It was quiet for the first 10 days before Christmas. Then Christmas through January 1st was busy. Today it's back to being a slow going, chill place. So, be mindful of when you go and take what is said... More

We have stayed at the Homewood Suites in downtown Chicago twice and it has become our "go to" hotel of choice now. We have stayed at a variety of hotels near/on Michigan Avenue and this place is the best value overall. Honestly, I don't know why they do not charge more for this hotel (anybody from Hilton reading this...pay no... More

These suites are in a tremendous location - you can be right in the Magnificent Mile within 3 minutes of leaving the hotel, walk across the river into the loop within 7 minutes, and walk to the Navy Pier in 15 minutes. They are also tremendous value for money - we had four people in our suite which would have... More

We had a fine stay here. The location was great. It was nice having the breakfast there, but the breakfast was more crowded than in other Homewood Suites and did not have as much of a selection. We had good service, but were not thrilled with our room. We had a view of a roof, and the room smelled like... More
