Does HotelsByCity recommend this hotel?

The location – right on Chicago’s Miracle Mile – attracts clients to this Marriott property. Many clients were impressed with the quality of the accommodation and the fine service they enjoyed during their stay. Families said the two-bedroom suites were ideal and the fully equipped kitchen enabled them to eat in and save on the expensive dining nearby. The breakfast buffet was more expansive than many customers expected and it was included in the room rate. This is one of the few places downtown where pets are permitted. Most clients say they will stay here again and had no hesitation in recommending the inn to others. Read our customer reviews?
