I was traveling for work - scheduled meetings in Lincoln Park - my travel department booked me at the Belden-Stratford. It was a wonderful old-time hotel ... which also functions as an apartment rental. They put me in a 3-room suite - it had to be at least 1,000 SF - with a great view of downtown. From the 8th...

The hotel itself is older but lovely with lots of character. Our... More

It was our first stay here, on Thanksgiving weekend. We received a room upgrade and loved our spacious 9th floor unit with a view of the lake. It was the quietest hotel room we have ever had.

I love this place. The staff is wonderful and the views could not be more lovely. It is steps away from a park and the neighborhood is one I would love to live in. You have the best of Chicago right out your window, and within. More

This is an older hotel with a bit of character. The rooms with full kitchen and bathroom are large and very comfortable with good in room facilities. The breakfast area downstairs did not impress initially but we got used to it especially after we had sampled the wide choice of continental breakfast items. The staff were friendly and very helpful... More

It was the big city with these beautiful views. The CTA stop was right across the street with a bus(#151) taking you right down Michigan ave to shopping,mellineum park,etc. or... More

The cleanliness was not perfert but certainly acceptable. The staff was not quick to help, but friendly and helpful when asked. I abosolutely LOVED the location. This is... More
