Emi, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was clean and dwell appointed. Staff were courteous and very helpful. They allowed us to check out late without hesitation. Hotel had just changed owners and that did not affect our experience. The art has been removed, but that’s fine. It’s hard to see art when you’re asleep.

Great room and even better location

We booked a room while in town for Labor Day to watch some baseball and enjoy the city. Location is fantastic and within walking distance to many attractions of the city. Check in was super easy and the king suite was large and clean. The shower is amazing and bed was comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

Theresa, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location! Staff was very friendly!
Mark, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

It's clear this hotel was in the process of changing hands when we stayed there. There were issues with the in-room TV and phone and limited outlets (and none next to the beds). The air filter appeared visibly dirty in both the bathroom and bedroom. The rooms were much smaller than appeared online. We stayed on the 4th floor and the street noise was very loud. Heard from a friend on the 11th floor that it was also loud up there, so may be unavoidable. I hope the new owners clean things up a bit! Otherwise, the staff were very nice and friendly.
Erin, 4-night trip

joanne, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Art close to Michigan ave

Nice art focused hotel near Michigan avenue though it feels a bit worn. Breakfast menu at LURE very meager and costly for the place. Very small elevators and slow to get to rooms. Limited small work out space in basement kind of gloomy. It feels less like a 21c brand hotel than others
Andrew, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff very nice. Rooms need updating. Great location.

Super convenient and clean spot in central Chicago. Staff was very helpful and accommodating.
Daniel, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good Stay, Difficult Valet

Valet service was underwhelming, they were either not around or off the clock often and they ended up parking my car on the street outside overnight for our 7AM departure. For $100 extra a night, the valet was really not worth it. I recommend staying here if you do not bring a car. The rooms are clean and spacious, the carpets and furnishings are modern and have recently been replaced in some areas. The hallways are a bit loud but otherwise the rooms were quiet. We were upgraded to a larger suite, but it was still quite small (to be expected downtown).
Sharon, 4-night trip

Such a fun hotel!
