I stayed at Palmer Hilton for 3 days. The hotel is located very next to famous millenium park and is accessible to many attrations such as Art institute of Chicago & Navy Pier. Palmer has a grand decoration inside and you can feel very relaxed atmosphere around the loby & bar. Front desk associates and even house keeping staff smile... more

Stayed while in Chicago for a convention. Booked through Hotwire, so the value was excellent. The lobby is magnificent. Hotel staff were helpful. Rooms are recently renovated and compact and the bath was small, though this was not a problem for me. The location is excellent. the only negative is that my room, 13-165, was next to what must be... more

I stayed at the Palmer House for 2 nights, and overall my experience was phenomenal. The room my friend and I checked into was huge! Maybe that's all that was available, and it probably why it was so expensive, but we had a big room with 2 double beds and a lounge area in the room. There wasn't much a... more

Stayed here October 31 through November 5 for a cconference. This is beautiful hotel and the location is perfect. The Art Institute and Millenium Park is a short 2 block walk from the hotel. My room was small, but beautiful. The bed was comfy and there were plenty of pillows. Alas, no coffee maker in the room...The staff was helpful... more

The Palmer House always causes me to breathe deeply upon entering the fantastic lobby. The Palmer House has excellent lobby life going on, full of people sitting, talking, rubbing elbows, socializing and refreshing themselves with drinks and food. I feel this aspect sets Palmer House apart from many hotels that seem nothing more than a line of peoplewith little incentive... more

Palmer House is an elegant hotel with a long history; the lobby area is spectacular. One the great things about the hotel is the location as it is in the Loop, and close to the Museums, parks, lakeside attractions. The only issue is the size of the bathroom--very small. The room, while on the small side, was very comfortable. Highly... more

Convenient to the museum, symphony and restaurants. Great Russian nearby. Street level is ugly with the elevated train nearby. The lobby is grand. Stayed in a historic looking room with 2 bathrooms. Crowded executive lounge. more

I stayed at The Palmer House for business travel and had a great experience. The hotel is centrally located to many Chicago attractions making it easy to get around town. The hotel itself is beautifully deocrated, clean and reasonably priced. more
