Hotels near West Loop in Chicago

"The room is large, 270 degrees view, the view is very good and beautiful There is a capsule coffee machine, it is convenient to drink tea and coffee. Breakfast can be baked waffles by yourself, delicious and fun The most important thing is that the location is good, the bus stop across the road, walking to Financial Street, Theatre, Yunmen, Art Museum is not far away, very suitable for city walk"

"It's about a ten-minute walk to the station, and there's a supermarket a few streets away. The room was clean and there were no major issues. The counter staff are also polite and willing to help when needed."

"The front desk staff were warm and friendly. They were very patient with me, even though my English isn't great, and used translation software to help. My room had a city view; while it wasn't a lake view, I could see the tall buildings outside. The room was spacious, and although the decor was a bit dated, it was exceptionally clean. You have to pick up bottled water yourself from the front desk. The location is superb, directly across from the lakeside and a park. It's within walking distance of Millennium Park and the Art Institute of Chicago. The Magnificent Mile and Chicago River are a bit further to walk, but the #3 bus right outside the hotel makes it very convenient to get there. It's close to the business district, near the subway, and there's a Macy's nearby. There are plenty of restaurants in the vicinity, and there's even a Starbucks on the first floor of the hotel, making it very easy to grab things. The hotel opened in 1920-something, so it's almost a century old and many historical figures have stayed here. I would definitely choose this hotel again for my next trip."

"It is much older than the photo. I have been training nearby for two weeks. The cleaning staff often forgets to take kitchen garbage or not refill coffee capsules. It is the most scattered service in the hotel I have ever stayed in in the United States. And Wi-Fi is poor here, I almost have to use my own hotspot throughout the whole process. The location is actually a bit far from the main attractions, and it is not convenient to travel. Fortunately, there are Whole Foods and an H-Mart nearby, and you can buy things and cook them yourself. In addition, they gave me a room on the 8th floor, although it was corner room, but the relationship facing the street was very, very noisy!"

"I stayed at the hotel for two nights and three days in late December 2025. Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing. The heating system in my room was extremely loud, making it difficult to sleep. During my entire stay, there was no housekeeping service or towel replacement, which was very inconvenient. The building also feels quite old; even the elevator rattled whenever it moved. Breakfast was included, but the selection was limited and the overall quality was poor. On multiple mornings, there were no refills when items ran out, and even when I arrived around 8:00 a.m., most of the food was already gone. It honestly felt like a “breakfast war zone.” I hope your hotel takes these issues seriously and improves the guest experience moving forward."

"The location is great, with a CVS and a Jewel Osco nearby, and it's within walking distance to the Magnificent Mile and Millennium Park. The facilities are a bit old, especially the carpet which looked quite dirty. Housekeeping started knocking on our door at 8 AM every morning 😮💨, yet when we returned to the hotel in the evening, the room hadn't been cleaned. Upon check-in, I noticed the bottled water was priced at $3 a bottle, free for members. So I didn't drink any of the hotel's water. However, after checking out, my credit card was charged $6 for water. It's not a lot of money, but it left a bad taste in my mouth. Thankfully, Trip.com customer service was very helpful and negotiated with the hotel for a refund, which I'm still waiting to receive."

"This hotel boasts a prime downtown Chicago location, within walking distance to the Magnificent Mile, Millennium Park, and popular Instagrammable spots, making getting around incredibly convenient. The rooms are clean and tidy, with comfortable bedding and excellent soundproofing. The free Wi-Fi is stable, and there's a well-equipped indoor pool and gym. The front desk staff are warm and efficient, and there are plenty of dining and shopping options nearby. It offers fantastic value for money. Overall, it's quiet and safe with thoughtful service, making it perfect for exploring, dining, and sightseeing. Highly recommend staying here when visiting Chicago!"

"very good location, close to the train, very clean room, nice service, quick check-in. If I'm in Chicago again, I'll definitely stay here again"

"A classic Hi USA hostel. For 400 RMB, getting a bunk in the South Loop is something to be grateful for. The location is excellent: a bus stop is just across the street to the south, a metro station to the north, and Grant Park to the east. Most major attractions are even within a 20-minute walk. The water dispenser is only on the second floor, which is quite inconvenient. Having to go downstairs every time to get water is a bit of a hassle. The downsides are clear: the decor is a bit dated, and there are no bed curtains. Plus, it's right next to the elevated Loop 'L' train tracks, so the noise is noticeable. Those with poor sleep quality will have a tough time. Personally, I don't mind; it's part of Chicago's character. There are lockers in the room for your belongings, just remember to bring your own lock. Each room has a sink outside the door, with separate bathrooms and toilets. The bathrooms are equipped with shower gel and shampoo, and amenities are restocked promptly. However, the shower water pressure in the room is insufficient. I also tried the communal showers, and the water pressure there was much better than in the room, making for a much more comfortable wash. The cleaning staff are efficient, promptly removing dirty towels and emptying trash cans. The front desk staff are very friendly, and you can ask them for fresh towels even late at night. In summary: For 400 RMB, what more can you ask for from a bunk bed within the Loop?"
