I will start with the positives first. The location was awesome and was one of the prettiest areas of downtown. There was so much to do so close by. The price was exceptional for that area (averaged $199 per night), we stayed a sat and Sunday night. The room was clean and the shower was a walk-in with tile. We... More

Yes the room was small but it was very clean, which I appreciate more than a larger room. The hotel is designed for businessmen, but as a couple we were perfectly happy. Interesting amenities: Ipod docking station next to the bed, refillable water bottle stations throughout the hotel. More

I arrived early AM and was given a room immediately. It was small, but clean and attractive in a generic way. This is not a complaint, just fact. It would have been small for two, but perfect for one. There was no view unfortunately. Next time, and there will be a next time, I will ask for a river view... More

We were on the fifth floor in a corner unit. At first we loved the location of the hotel and really liked the room. Then we looked out the window. Nothing but alley, dumpster and at night very loud. The tv was extremely small and so far from the bed it was hard to see and hear. The rooms was... More

I had a meeting in Chicago that started at 11:30 on Friday April 13, 2012. I left New York on a 7:10 AM flight so I could arrive in Chicago early enough to check into my room and freshen up. I arrived at the River Hotel at 10:00 AM and ask to check in early. I was told that a... More

This is a great hotel in a fab location for exploring the sites and doing some shopping. I arrived at the hotel after three weeks of travelling around the States and staying in hostels and was delighted with how lovely my room was. I was travelling on my own at this stage and found the hotel staff very nice. On... More

A friend of mine and I stayed at the River Hotel on Wacker Drive on Friday February 24, 2012. We wanted to be close to Michigan St shopping, and we weren't disappointed. The hotel is within a block of Michigan St shopping, right across the street from the River, which made for a beautiful view from our 10th floor room... More

I booked this hotel through hotwire and was very happily surprised. We wanted a room close to the Magnificent Mile and we could not have found a better location. The entrance is tiny and the hotel does not appear to be great upon entering (turn right after the street entrance to find the clerks). The room itself is quite small,... More
