"Carpet in the room was very dirty and frayed at the edges. The passages were also dated and grungy. The bed was as clean and comfortable. Well located for walking and sightseeing."

10/10 Excellent
"Regina should receive more pay(that’s my 2 cents. She didn’t mention or ask me to say this about her pay)! She was everything!! Friendly, helpful and very informative. Peaceful location. I enjoyed the sounds of the city, ASMR for sure. The room was clean, the water pressure was perfect. Bed was comfortable and the pillows had the right amount of fluff!"

What is a historic hotel like in Chicago?
A historic hotel gives guests the opportunity to stay in a place that's been recognised with a national historic designation.

What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
The two are similar. "Historic hotel" is more commonly used in the U.S., whereas "heritage hotel" is common in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to focus on the architecture and building. A heritage hotel draws meaning mainly from the place's cultural value and how it influenced the community.
Do historic hotels in Chicago have modern facilities?
Yes, every effort is made to preserve the historic aspects and traditions, but interiors include modern conveniences and safety features. Visitors can expect the amenities you'd find in a hotel such as Smart TVs, WiFi and updated bathroom facilities. When you book a historic hotel in Chicago, it doesn't mean you're choosing a place that's rundown or uncomfortable for guests.
