Stayed two nights and had a wonderful stay. Rooms clean, food great, staff friendly and ideal location. Could not ask for anything better and would come back again. The elevator is rather small compared to most hotels but was not an issue during our stay.

The location of The Raffaello Hotel is truly one of a kind. We are located in the heart of The Gold Coast here in Chicago. Right next to all of the finest dining, shopping and entertainment that the city has to offer. Lets also not forget that we are also just located just blocks away from the beautiful beach on... More

Found this hotel on a search site. The room was pretty nice; had a vanity/kitchen area with fridge, a nice shower and pretty good freebie soaps. Friendly service too, and a gym. Great location -- right near the Hancock Building and Michigan Avenue. The rooftop bar is cute and has a great view. My only complaints were a squeaky room... More

Stayed two nights at the Raffaello. The rooms were nice and in a perfect location to see downtown Chicago. I was a little disappointed by their early check in policy. Check in is at 4pm which is late. You can request early check in the day of but if your room becomes availible they charge a $30 fee. I still... More

I was very pleased with this lovely, boutique hotel centrally located in downtown Chicago. Clean, charming & I look forward to returning. An on site doughnut shop, a restaurant, gym/spa & a rooftop bar one need not leave the premises for a wonderful time. I'm so happy that my first stay in Chicago was @ the Raffaello Hotel!!

What's not to like. Cordial greeting at the desk upon arriving. An immaculate and spacious room. A super comfortable bed and pillows. A bathroom that was spotless. A short walk to Michigan Ave. And a (free) upgrade to a corner suite w/views down Delaware Street toward Michigan Ave. What's to improve -- nothing!

The main selling point of this hotel is the central location... It is literally right off of the Magnificent Mile, steps away from all of the shopping and restaurants you could ever visit in one trip! It is also very easy to get a taxi from right in front of the hotel at any hour if you are going further... More

My wife and I went for a getaway vacation. We were, unsolicited, upgraded to a suite. The suite was very nice, clean and tastefully decorated. The only negative is the bathroom was very small, and there was only a small amount of bathroom counter space. The service staff was helpful. The location was excellent, a block from the Miracle Mile... More
