Top Griffin Museum of Science and Industry Hotel Reviews

Jaslin Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Best Hotel in Chicago. We book every two years and look forward to staying there. Great staff, incredible location, and just the perfect place for our team to stay for IMTS. Also love the Starbooks near the lobby, the convenient and safe parking, and the hundreds of great restaurants in the neighborhood."

SpringHill Suites by Marriott Chicago Chinatown

8/10 Good

"Everything was good, room, staff, even the location is great"

Congress Plaza Hotel

8/10 Good

"Historic hotel that has some upgrades and modern amenities. The lobby bar could use some upgrades and a second working elevator on the South tower would have been helpful on busy days."

Marriott Marquis Chicago

8/10 Good

"We stayed here to attend a concert at Soldier Field. The stadium was an easy walk from the hotel. We had a corner room with floor to ceiling windows. The views of the lake and city were incredible! Parking was fine. The staff at the front desk were always friendly. The coffee shop in the hotel served illy coffee and our drinks were fantastic every morning!"

Hilton Garden Inn Chicago McCormick Place

Home2 Suites by Hilton Chicago McCormick Place

10/10 Excellent

"My family of 3 adults stayed at Home2 for 3 nights during the Chicago Marathon. The hotel is conveniently located - 5 min walk from CTA green line and the Expo where runners got the marathon t- shirt, bib, etc. There are several restaurants, fast food chain, and mini markets. Our room is spacious and clean. The complimentary breakfast has a lot of options. The hotel provided snacks and drinks for runners on the race day, markers and signs for us to cheer on our runners."

The Wheeler Mansion

10/10 Excellent

"This place is so much better than a regular corporate hotel. It is literally a restored mansion. Breakfast was great. Bed was very comfortable. The outdoor seating and garden in October were so nice to chill in after attending meetings at the convention center (easy 5 minute walk). If available will stay there every time I visit Chicago. The L is right there as well."
