Beautiful City- Good Location for Walking
- August 12, 2008

The room was okay- 15th floor and the bed was very comfortable. Shower has HOT HOT water. Lots of towels. Airconditioner rattled and I was able to quiet it by sticking a paper jam in the metal doors to stop the banging. The hotel resturant leaves lots to be desired but there are nice places just a short walk away- especially down by the river.
I felt the desk staff was rather rude at checkout when I was trying to get a print out of my room bill for travel expenses. I wanted the extra (Non-refundable) charges on a separate bill and you would have thought I was asking them to pull teeth. I did not get my statement- but whatever.
Excessive tourist tax on the room and they add 30 dollars for the 2nd person as well as charge for the use of the exercise room. Pretty pricey- but the costs will probably improve when the brand new Trump Tower opens next door!! :-)

Great Hotel

I was very pleased with the Westin on Michigan Ave. The hotel was in great shape and the rooms were rather upscale for the price we paid. Good size and very clean. I knew it was a good sign when the LA Dodgers were also staying in our hotel!!!
Great location right across the street from the Hancock Building. Tons of shopping in the surrounding blocks and only about five blocks (about 10 min walk) from the El Train Station.
Seemed like a very professional or family oriented clientel, however it was great for a guys baseball getaway as well. Would stay there again in a heartbeat.
Best stay in Chicago

We've stayed in many properties in downtown Chicago & this was by far the best! From check-in to check-out, the staff provided superior service! We were upgraded to a larger room with a view of the lake...just because. We were given a free in room movie simple because we had kids with us. :-) The room was large (for Chicago), clean, and well appointed. The restaurant is spendy (it's Chicago afterall), but great food, huge portions & out of this world desserts!

Great location right next to water tower place and the handcock building. Room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. Watch out for city taxes on the room, they totaled close to 40 dollars on our stay. All thing considered an excellent value.
