The Wyndham Blake was a real find. We found the room very comfortable. It was spacious and light, much nicer than we expected. The staff was friendly and helpful It is also near the CTA Blue Line, so we got on the train at Chicago O'Hare and got off 2 blocks from the Blake. The restaurant attached served an excellent...

Got a special online and was happy to pay less than $150 a night to be downtown. Walking distance to lake and all the activities there. A little far south of shopping the Magnificent Mile but we took a bus and were there in no time. Construction on the streets was loud and ran until 10pm the first night but... More

My husband stayed here when it was the Blake and we stayed together recently on a trip back to Chicago; the room was lovely with a great view of the library. It was a nice size with a comfortable bed and spacious bathroom. The shower was nice but I do wish there was a bathtub as well; maybe other rooms... More

Chicago has way too many hotels downtown than it needs... and that being the case you can always find a good rate downtown rather than in the burbs.

From the moment we arrived the entire staff made us feel totally welcome. The daytime doorman recommended a great diner called ELEVEN St. Diner and it was great. The room was clean and the bed extremely comfortable. Great shower pressure! The night time doorman, SHOWTIME, was magnificent. He brought us around the corner to a great little jazz club. The...

This is a smaller hotel in a perfect location for walking tours of the city, access to the Art Institute, Millennium Park, and river sightseeing cruises. The staff is friendly and helpful. Our room was lovely. The weather was a bit chilly and windy (it's Chicago!) but the city and this hotel were warm and exciting! Be sure to meet... More

My Husband and I have been to Chicago thousands of times, though we have never stayed at the Wyndham Blake. Upon our arrival we were checked in by Shelly, who was so friendly and accommodating. The room was very clean and I just loved the decor! Once we were settled we were advised to go to the Purple Pig for... More

I enjoyed everything about this hotel except that the room reeked of mold. I would have thought it was an isolated incident until I read that many guests have experienced the same thing. That tells me the hotel knows of the problem and isn't fixing it. They stick unknowing guests in these rooms and hope they don't complain. More

This hotel is close to the loop and less expensive than many Chicago hotels. The beds are very comfortable and the staff is welcoming, polite and exceptionally personable and helpful. There are many restaurants within walking distance and a Starbucks less than a block away. Many attractions are easily accessible by public transportation. We rode the Orange Line from Midway... More
