We went to Chicago in April to see Hamilton and chose The Silversmith for our stay. Form the moment we arrived, to the last step out of the hotel, we loved our stay. We arrived prior to check in time and upon arrival, the woman at check in shared that there were rooms available, however, she suggested that we wait until check in time to secure a better room. We were glad that she shared this with us and went to grab a quick bite to eat. When we came back and checked in, we were given a great room on the back side of the hotel that was completely quiet. The toiletries were excellent with an extra special touch of a exfoliating mitt, which was a first. The bathroom is very well lit and the decor and bedding were soft grays and white. It was very relaxing. The room many have been a bit on the small side, however, the ceilings were very tall which really gave the room a larger feel. We definitely enjoyed our stay here, especially the very close proximity to the CIBC theater, which is where Hamilton was playing. If you want to stay in the theater district of Chicago or South Loop area, this boutique hotel is a great choice!

This hotel is just steps away from the main gardens/parks, from the Chicago river and from all the subway/ "L" lines - one couldn't ask for a better location. Anastasia at the front desk absolutely charmed us with her welcoming personality. We only saw her once, but she left an unforgettable impression. Sweet amazing Irvin was there pretty much every day making sure we had everything we needed during the temporary housekeeping restrictions (due to COVID19). The room looked spacious and classy with a large bathroom, the softest pillows, two TVs and a little extra rest area (Anastasia just gave us a little upgrade as it was available). I am also very grateful to this hotel's management for allowing us to easily change the dates of our trip. We had a non-refundable booking, so technically they could have refused, but in light of earlier travel restrictions they were very understanding and accommodating.

The staff is exceptional!! An heartfelt thank you Kenshia, Beverly, Enrique and another young lady who worked last night (9/7) - you looked out for me and were the cream of my trip!! The hotel room was beautifully updated and clean. Unlike many hotels fresh towels were restocked daily without requesting, as well as a couple bottles of water. This hotel is a historic treasure in a prime location within the loop being only a few feet from the L-train station making it very convenient to travel from Midway on the orange line. Everything you are looking for is nearby - stores, restaurants, Michigan Ave are close. When traveling to Chicago this is my destination to stay. Kudos to the entire staff!!
