I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Hotel Felix! While it may not technically be a five-star luxury chain, it definitely gave us five-star hotel vibes thanks to the incredible staff and the fantastic extra perks.The location is absolutely awesome. It puts you about a mile or so from all the major hotspots, including Navy Pier, the Riverwalk, and the Magnificent Mile. There are tons of excellent places to eat right nearby, and having a Divvy bike rental station right down the street made exploring the city incredibly easy.The service from the staff was top-notch from start to finish. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a stylish, perfectly located, and highly accommodating place to stay in Chicago!

Booked this stay for my husband Birthday. Wanted to make sure he enjoyed himself as well as me. I spent over $800 for the corner room, check in is at 4pm and we arrived about 430ish. Got to the room and the Amenities I purchased wasn’t there which was $100(they stated it would be at 4pm) which is why I want to arrive later. I noticed that the bed sheets were ripped, small stains on the couch in front of bed and the seat in the corner by the window that creeped me out. So we left and via Hilton app I contacted the Hotel to find out why my paid Amenities wasn’t there and they sat them in there while we were gone to dinner. We got back and the chocolate covered strawberries were melted. The best part about the stay was the firework show. My husband and I enjoyed ourselves as best we could after noticing these issues it was disgusting seeing the stains and the ripped sheets especially paying what was over $1000 for one night
