“Staff in the lobby were friendly and very helpful - helped us find comedy tickets. Valet (Showstopper) was friendly and super helpful also. We could walk everywhere we wanted to go, nice location, we slept soundly on comfy beds with no noise, nice breakfast cafe right next door. Easy to get on/off the highway from this location. Loved our stay!”

“The location of the hotel is quite convenient, just a short walk from the waterfront, Buckingham Fountain, Grant and Milance parks and the city center. The metro stations of the blue and red lines are nearby. Our room was very large, bright and clean, with a beautiful view from the window to the Willys Tower. Conveniently, the bathroom has two sinks. Air conditioning worked well. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Excellent Meli Cafe is on the ground floor. Good free Wi-Fi. Free access to a computer with a printer in the lobby.”
“Fantastic staff, very helpful and friendly who went out of their way to assist with any issues. The location was great (I could just about see the lake from my window) and the hotel restaurant/room service had a wide offer of great food (and if I wanted more there were many restaurant and cafes within 5-10 mins walk).”
“Location was awesome, great walk-ability to sites and food. The room was beautiful with high ceilings which made it seem bigger. The bed was so comfortable! Staff was very friendly, greeted us every time we came back. Live music is the lobby was nice!”
“Restaurant was excellent! Staff was very friendly and helpful! Great location. Easy access to everything.”
“The employees were smiling and most helpful. They guided us through navigating the city with suggestions and maps. The room was clean and comfortable. Shower was fantastic! The Blake is most convenient to the southern part of the city (Museum of Science and Industry, the U of Chicago’s Oriental Institute), and an easy bus ride to everythng else. The Meli Restaurant was both convenient and excellent.”
