The Affinia is a wonderfully located hotel, less than 1 block east of north Michigan Avenue. The lobby is minimalist, but this isn't a problem if you don't like hanging out in lobbies. I don't. The staff couldn't have been friendlier. Very pleasant dealings with all of them. C-House is a great in-house restaurant, and I highly recommend it when... More

Location, location, location...a block from the Miracle Mile, the Lookingglass Theater, the Museum of Contemporary Art. A 25 minute walk, or short cab or bus ride right to the Art Institute of Chicago. I had no qualms about walking by myself to and from the theater. There were others doing the same thing. The hotel rooms (especially with 2 beds)... More

We stayed in a room with two double beds and you could have fit two more beds in the room. The room was recently redecorated and was nice. We were on the 5th floor and didn't have much of a view, it was looking at an alley. I like soft pillow top mattressess and the beds were hard. We did... More

For location, the Affinia Chicago can't be beat. They're only a half-block off the Magnificent Mile, so for those in for shopping, this is an ideal choice. The hotel itself is good; not spectacular, but a solid choice. The rooms are clean, modern, and a good size. The restaurant is decent, and reasonably priced. The staff were friendly, and did... More

We booked this hotel through a deal on Travel Zoo for a two night, three day getaway between Christmas and New Year's Eve to celebrate my birthday. The hotel was in a great location, the staff were friendly, parking was easy and our Junior Suite was fantastic. We felt like rockstars in on our city vacation! More

The hotel is in a very good location and also seems to be affordable. The view from the hotel rooms can be magnificient provided you get a room closer to the top. Unfortunately, the service was during some occasions poor. Breakfast in the restaurant downstairs was for a fee, but that could possibly be related to the type of accommodation... More

We stayed here because of location and easy access to Lakeshore Drive from the freeway. It was half a block from the 'magnificant mile', wonderful restaurants and easy walking to everything you want, especially for dropping shopping bags off, on the way to other stores. The Hotel was clean, everyone was helpful and pleasant, and early check-in was a perfect... More

The Affinia's location is perfect for visitors who want to experience the Magnificant Mile and downtown Chicago. It is a short walk to Michigan Avenue and Water Tower Place.
