Compared to other places I have stayed in Chicago this is the best. Clean and friendly( except the female bar tender) everyone remembered us from last year and went out of their way to help. Special thanks to the front desk staff and door men.

My girl friends and I planned a one night stay in Chicago as a little getaway. This hotel is amazing! Great, friendly staff. Such cute, fun decor. Our room had two queen beds and it was perfect. It is located in a perfect place. Fun bars and restaurants within walking distance. I cannot wait to go again!

A little stylish hotel a few minutes walking from Chicago downtown. Rooms are clean, friendly stuff. Free internet. Breakfast not included, you can get it ala carte or there are a few other options outside the hotel (Starbugs, Walgreens etc.). Valet parking 42 USD for 24 hours. Nice restauranst close. Will stay again.

Very centrally located for north and south side activities. Very clean rooms. Wonderful and helpful staff. Lobby area was nice, spacious, but cozy. Parking nearby, though it is expensive, it is not more than the going rate.

Great location, close to shopping, many options for dining and night, excellent staff, follow up on three small room issues was prompt and thorough. Bistro... More

Two girlfriends and I stayed here during our first trip to Chicago. As you can imagine, parking is quite the issue for visitors to the Windy City.

Stayed at the Hotel Indigo Gold Coast with my husband over a 3-night city-break weekend in May. We actually also had a reservation at the ACME Hotel company, but decided the high prices weren't worth it, so opted for the Indigo.
