The room exceeded our expectations. It was impeccable ant it includes all the amenities you might need, the linen was clean; everything is in mint condition. We would totally come back but the threshold in the bathroom needs to be little higher, the water comes out of the shower making it dangerous for customers.

We have stayed in this neighborhood several times but this was first time with Royal Sonesta. Overall it was a really good experience. Super clean, awesome art. Friendly staff and excellent housekeeping. We didn't use the restaruant so cannot speak to that. Easy walking to theatre district and Michigan ave. Would be an amazing location during warmer weather to use river walk. The bathroom was large and clean, although the shower only had one of those overhead/rain showerheads- no additional wall showerhead and no way to increase pressure- so plan on extra time to rinse if you have longer/thicker hair:)

This is my second stay in a row at this hotel, and I’m certain it will be my choice again whenever I’m in Chicago. The location is unbeatable, the views are stunning, and the rooms are impeccable. Highly recommended!

Clean and decorated nicely. Comfortable bed. Shower stall very narrow. 4 people in our room reservation and only 3 bath towels which is typical and not a problem expect I requested an additional towel two times (at night and then the following morning) and never received it. Nice hotel but don’t expect assistance from front desk.

Asked about early check in. They said they had rooms available. Started process and then was made aware there was a $50 charge for early check in. If the rooms are sitting there empty and I can check in in 3-4 hours with no charge why not just check us in early without an additional charge?

I really enjoyed my stay. The front desk staff was super friendly and the hotel is very clean and updated but still has a lot of charm- I loved the furnishings! Additionally, I loved the toiletries but they only provided one set of bar soap/lotion (I stayed for three days) so be aware.

Very nice stay in connection to running the Chicago Marathon. Very near the start and finish of that marathon which is a big plus. Snacks provided by the hotel on the morning of the race was also a very nive and appreciated touch. Room spacious and amazing view to the river. Then why only 4 stars instead of 5? Two reasons for that: In the room there is a coffeemaker…but nothing for teadrinkers. I have never stayed in a hotel where there have only been one option and not the other. Being a teadrinker and not a coffedrinker, this is a letdown. We stayed in 1201 which is right next to the elevator, like right next to. The dings of the elevator were very loud, and were impossible not to notice, both awake and during the night.

This updated hotel is beautiful and centrally located across the river walk and a very short walking distance from Michigan Avenue. I've stayed twice and will do so again!

We stayed at this hotel primarily because of its location. However I had no idea how beautiful it be. We booked a room with the river view and it did not disappoint. The room itself was nice and very clean. Everything is within walking distance, we rented a car but only used it to get to and back from the airport. I highly recommend this hotel.

Overall our time spent at your hotel was enjoyable. The location was ideal. The food and drinks in the downstairs restaurant/bar was great and the atmosphere was nice. Our room was clean and had a nice view but it barely got cool and made it slightly uncomfortable. The downside would be the front desk experience upon check in. It wasn’t as friendly and inviting as we would have hoped or expected. The early check in fee when there were an abundance of rooms available was also different from the numerous hotels and resorts we have stayed in in the past. But nonetheless we would give the stay an 7.5/10 rating. Thank you
