    Great Location and Comfortable Stay

    The room was spacious with a good power shower, comfortable beds, and stunning river views. the food in the bar was delicious, and most of the staff were friendly. However, the noise from other guests and occasional strong smell of smoke in the corridors were a downside that could be improved.

    We enjoyed the spacious room with a great view of the river and the stunning location that was about a 20-minute walk to the town center.

    The location for Chicago was perfect, close to all the shopping and restaurants in the area, and all the major sights of Chicago. the hotel was very comfortable. We even made it to the baseball game on time thanks to the help we received. the lobby restaurant was a great spot for supper.

    I selected this hotel for a conference due to its impressive 16,000 square feet of fully renovated, state-of-the-art meeting spaces with inspiring views of the city and river. The support team was able to customize the meeting spaces to our exact needs, providing a distinct and memorable local flavor to our event.

    The one service I missed for my work was a business center with dedicated staff to assist with any last-minute printing or administrative needs.

    Convenient location near the river 🌊 as described. the rooms were nicely decorated and had been recently updated, perfect for my daughter's birthday with a great view.

    The Royal Sonesta Chicago Downtown was a pleasant accommodation for my business trip. The fitness center was top-notch, with the latest cardio training and strength training equipment, including a Peloton bike, ensuring I could maintain my workout routine. The hotel also offers a beautiful view of the city, contributing to a delightful stay. The staff was helpful and attentive, making my experience even more enjoyable.

    They immediately tried to upsell for a better view, which then becomes disappointing when you see what you paid for.
