Top Chicago History Museum Hotel Reviews

The Whitehall Hotel, BW Premier Collection

8/10 Good

"The location was everything, very close to Magnificent Mile, and now they have a Paris Baguette with an attached door to their hotel as well. That was a great surprise, and since I booked when free breakfast was offered, we received hotel specific daily vouchers to pick up some coffee/chai/breakfast/lunch items (paying the difference) from Paris Baguette each day, that was wonderful! There was always fresh tangerines in a bowl near the elevator as well which was an additional perk along with helpful Staff. The room was very small and extremely dimly lit. The bathroom lighting was THE WORST!!! So dim in there, and the little circular mirror from the wall has a light that barely worked so didn't help at all with the lighting issue. Also, very limited bathroom counter space. The shower was nice and the pressure was good though. There were several lamps in the room, but they didn't help much especially due to our view being a large concrete building without any windows or openings right outside our window, some of the street, and a parking garage across the street from our hotel. The only hotel pillow that was comfortable was the small velvet one with their logo on it, otherwise all the rest were not comfortable for my husband and I. They were the feather type pillows that go flat when you lay on them. The amount of blankets and mini fridge were great, but I'd suggest having a larger garbage can available in the room vs only one small bathroom garbage."
