While The Peninsula is a beautiful hotel located in the heart of Michigan Avenue, the service we experienced this past week-end was most definitely not "five-star". The Peninsula proved that small touches can really make or break one's stay at a hotel, opulent as its decor may be. For instance, the check-in process was aloof and impersonal, did not describe...

I recently stayed at The Peninsula Chicago & had another amazing experience! I arrived quite early around 8:45am & was checked in by Andrea at the Front Desk- she was lovely. She welcomed me back, upgraded me to a Grand Deluxe room with a great view overlooking the Water Tower, & swiftly gave me my key to the 15th floor-... More

We had the executive suite and it was extremely nice. Amazing views from all the windows. Hotel is located within walking distance of about everything you could think of. I was kind of depressed before the trip because the room was expensive for me. Leaving though I didnt think twice about it. It really made the wife happy. She loved... More

This is a classic luxury Chicago hotel. It is to Chicago what the Ritz-Carlton was 30 years ago and the Four Seasons was 15 years ago, but way better. Understated elegance at every turn. No detail is left unattended to. The lobby is so very sophisticated and elegant, yet approachable. The staff is friendly, but not overly so. Rooms are... More

I've been fortunate to stay in some very nice hotels. St. Regis, Luxury Collection, Bellagio, Ritz Carlton, etc. Without question, the Peninsula Chicago is at the top of my list for business/pleasure travel. Situated near everything you need in Chicago. The staff bends over backwards to help, the rooms are ample in size and offer everything you could need (including... More

Just spent three nights at the Peninsula for the NRA show in Chicago. From the moment we arrived to the moment we checked out, we were in AWE of the service! People welcome you at the door and know you by name. There is a low key discreet atmosphere which makes you feel like you are at home. The lap... More

This review is late in being written, but well deserved! We have stayed at this hotel twice and can't say enough about it! All the staff are amazing, but the concierge staff is BEYOND incredible! When I was feeling ill they went across the street to get me some over-the-counter flu medication! When my daughter wanted to watch an American... More

Too short of a stay on an incredible pleasant hotel. Excellent rooms (try a Michigan Ave. view if possible). Very good gym. Lobby and adjoining dining room with huge windows are just beautiful, elegant but not overwhelming. Excellent experience at breakfast even if one waiter was clearly not up to standard. Very good Chinese restaurant. In a nutshell: hospitality that... More

I wrote a review of The Peninsula last year, but I'm compelled to write another one based on our recent trip. When we arrived at The Peninsula I felt an overwhelming sense of comfort and calm. I equate our stay at The Peninsula during annual trip to Chicago as one of the most important factors why I enjoy Chicago so... More
