Bought my wife theater tickets for Christmas, so I needed to find a hotel for the evening. We make it to Chicago once a year or so, but we haven't stayed overnight in a while. After some internet searching, I found the Silversmith hotel. Was only three blocks from the Chicago Theater. One plus. The Arts and Crafts style of... More

First let me say - I rarely think of a hotel as more than a place to sleep...if it has a comfortable bed and room, I'm happy. This hotel far exceeded my expectations. First off, there is an amazing aura to this place - it is a historical building, yet updated/modern/clean. Beats staying at a corporate hotel any day. The... More

We stayed at the Silversmith in June 2011 for 12 days, so this review is a bit overdue. The location was convenient (at the corner of Madison and Wabash), the El stop right in front of the hotel. The windows were properly insulated, as the noise from the trains was very muffled. You could hear a faint noise from the... More

Good place for a night stay. Room was good.old styled. Downside- CRT tv . Also the person at reception was a bit rude . I recommend the hotel More

I booked a room at the Silversmith on Dec 17 of 2011. I booked it through a third party travel agent. Parking in Chicago is a really big hassle. When I booked the room, I asked the third party agent is parking included in the room numerous times. They assured me that parking was included. I even called the Silversmith... More

I can't say enough great things about this hotel especially for the price and location. The room was well appointed with a large spacious bathroom including plush robes. Beds were comfortable. If you are a light sleeper, you may want to request a higher floor due to the El being just outside, but it didn't bother us. The front desk... More

I was in Chigago for a couple of days and needed a hotel that was in a central location. The location of this hotel can't be beat, it's right in the loop and only a block away from shopping on State Street and all of the museums/Millennium park on Michigan Ave. My room was very large and clean, with a...

I recently stayed overnight at the Silversmith for business and was blown away by the value. The King Executive room was spacious and clean, the bed was comfortable, the craftsman style furnishings were nice, and the staff was exceptionally helpful. You could pay two or three times as much to stay down the block at the Palmer House and still... More

The location was perfect for us. Close to Millennium Park, Art Museum, our concert venue at Roosevelt University, and the only downtown Chicago location of TJ Maxx. Elizabeth at the desk was very pleasant and helpful. She helped us with dinner reservations when the concierge could not be found. The room were not luxurious like some 4 star hotels, but... More
