We flew into Midway, the EL Train is less than 2 blocks to the hotel, and cost $3.50 each to get there. We put $10. on two cards, used them all weekend to get around, and still gave the cards to a young family with fairs on them on our trip back to the airport. The hotel is easy walking... More

The W Chicago overcharged my debit card by $309, and explained that I would be refunded within 30 days. 30 days. There isn't a soul working in the W that has the power to issue an immediate credit back to your bank account. You are also charged the full amount of your stay plus $200 in incidentals upon checking in.... More

The rooms are very small for the price. Maintenance is not up to par. Lobby bar is very loud and overpriced. If you are over 40, you will be invisible to the bartenders. You will be charged an extra $200 for incidentals, whether or not you drink the $12 beers from the mini fridge. They get 30 days to refund... More

I was originally on the 12th floor and it sounded like a 100mph wind was swirling around the window once every five minutes. Turns out there is a train at the base of the hotel that runs 24/7. I was moved to a smaller "interior room" on 7th floor w a window. The noise was even louder. The funny thing... More

Thank your for your feedback. I am so sorry to hear about your experience and the move to our courtyard rooms did not provide you with the insulation you needed from the CTA [Chicago Transit Authority]. Please accept my apologies on behalf of the team at the hotel. Should we have the luxury of welcoming you back I invite you... More

Loved this location. My room was spacious, very W style!!!! The staff was polite and helpful. After many days of travel I was in desperate need of a little relaxing with Laurelin (the concierge) hooked up for me, it really made my stay even that more enjoyed!!!

Our group of girlfriends decided to get together in Chicago for a mini high school reunion of sorts. This hotel is swanky and definitely feels like the hip place to be.
