Hotels near Museum of Broadcast Communications in Chicago

It was a very relaxed day and night. The service was very nice everybody was so welcoming. The breakfast was not that good for the price I made with the night of the hotel. Coffee was watery

Well located hotel a short walk from tube station and bus stops Friendly and attentive staff Room stocked with tea/coffee facility, (empty) mini fridge which suited me Bed was comfortable with a choice pillows and there were proper blackout blinds There was a desk area, perfect for catching up with work emails I’d book again, preferably in Summer to enjoy the roof top swimming pool

The hotel is in a great location! Close to main attractions and lots of restaurants! Main staff was not very friendly. Hotel is beautiful when you enter. Rooms are very old and need updating. The toilet in my bathroom had a corroded tank and a broken lever. That was a bit frustrating. Bed was very hard!! Room was very cold! Only one thermostat for the entire hotel. There is no individual thermostat in each room. Had to ask for extra blankets. They did provide that for me. The fitness room is very nice! Every thing you need to have a really good workout! They indicated they are in the process of renovating rooms. They’ve just not completed that project yet. I would stay there again if the price was right. Hopefully next time I’ll get an updated room!

My husband and I stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn in Evanston for my daughter’s 7th birthday, along with our younger daughter who is 5. We wanted to stay somewhere that had a pool, restaurants/shops/nightlife accessible and also close access to the beach. We found all of this when we stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn! I really can’t say enough great things about this hotel. First: the location. It’s situated one block away from downtown Evanston, one of the best neighborhoods in the state of IL. There are limitless things to do and places to eat with the kids. Second: the hotel staff. They were so kind and accommodating! Cathy at the front desk knew it was my daughters birthday, wished her a happy birthday, and gave both my daughters a free treat to celebrate. There was always a staff member around to help, from someone servicing the pool to the guy that helped me get complimentary coffee in the lobby. Just a pleasure! They were so helpful and happy to help, I got the sense of being part of one big family while we were staying there. Third: the room. It was so clean with so many thoughtful component included to make our stay more comfortable. The were communications posted throughout the room notifying us of when/how the room was sanitized. All the complimentary toiletries were upscale and there was enough for my whole family. There’s just so many positive things about this hotel, a true gem, if you are looking for something in this area, it’s everything you are looking for and more.

The hotel is great, especially the location, very close to the attractions, the Millennium Park is 5 minutes walk, the wills sky tower is 9 minutes walk, the Chicago River Cruise is also 10 minutes from the Museum District, 25 minutes, the Navy Pier 32 minutes, in short You don't have to buy a bus card here, walking is enough. Especially to the airport is very convenient, two minutes to the subway blue line directly to O'Hare airport, very convenient. Breakfast has not been eaten. The room was a little bit small, I ignored it, and it was so perfect when I went out. It feels good. Only a little hotel received my estimate of $200 is a deposit. If there is no problem, I will return it. I will ask how long I can return to my account. The front desk said that I don’t know. The money was swiped directly from the credit card. A bit uncomfortable.

The location is excellent, one step away from Mies' lakeside apartment, very suitable for construction lovers. The overall price/performance ratio of the room is high, clean and hygienic, and the facilities are complete, suitable for families and children. The parking lot around the weekend will be tight, it is recommended to book in advance ～.

This is probably one of the best hostels I've stayed at in the U.S. I've stayed at this hostel twice now. The first time was in 2015 and the second time this past month for Market Days. Location: The hostel is centrally located in Downtown Chicago/the Loop. It's easily accessible to get to and from O'Hare Airport via the Blue Line which runs 24 hours. The closest CTA station is Jackson Station which also has connections to many other CTA lines. The hostel is also located within walking distance to many other tourist hotspots like Millennium Park, Broadway shows, Lou Malnati's Pizza (10 minutes), etc. There's also a CVS Pharmacy at the corner of the street that sells liquor and other essentials. On the weekday, the area is bustling with downtown workers, but on the weekends, it's like a ghost town. Most restaurants and stores close by 8/9pm. The only place to eat at if you have a late night is Taco Bell which closes at 2am. Another downside is that there are a lot of homeless people that have set up camp in front and around the hostel, so some people may feel unsafe walking around. Security: The property is very secure. There are multiple entry points to get into the hostel with a key card. There's another entry point to get access to the elevator banks that lead to the rooms as well as required card access to go upstairs and into the rooms. There's also a 24-hour front desk. This was a saving grace for me because my flight from New York was delayed that I ended up arriving at 3:30am. Keep in mind, if you plan to arrive after 3am, you should notify/call the front desk and let them know otherwise they'll mark you as a no-show and cancel your reservation. They also have storage lockers/a luggage room for a fee. Facilities/Amenities: My original reservation was for a 4-bed male dormitory, but there was someone sleeping in my assigned bunk. When you arrive, there is a fitted sheet, pillow sheets, a bath towel, and a face towel (no comforter). You are expected to make your bed. Since I arrived so late and my roommates were already asleep, the overnight staff (DJ) was nice enough to put me in an 8-bed dormitory that was unoccupied, so that I didn't wake up anyone. Both rooms were very spacious/high ceilings/massive windows with a lot of space to store luggage and walk around. All the rooms have lockers (bring your own lock or buy one at the front desk). In the 4-bed dorm, there is a common area with a kitchen/bathroom that connects with 2 suites. The 8-bed room is setup where the toilet, shower, and sink are all in separate areas instead of all in one room. The shower area has dispensers for body wash, shampoo, and conditioner. There are also common showers and toilets on every floor. The downside of the dormitory is that you can't control the temperature of the room. Summers in Chicago are hot and humid and the room was kept in the 60s, which I loved. But, my roommates thought it was too cold for them. The WiFi access is very stable and fast. Th

The small fridge in the room automatically shuts off after 2 hrs and doesn't stay at a safe temperature to store breast milk. The front desk advised to just use an ice bucket. This is problematic because (1) you will have to continually refill the ice bucket and (2) there is limited capacity. After an escalation to the manager, they offered to hold my milk behind the front desk in their fridge. I am not comfortable with that ”solution” nor do I want to go back and forth to the front desk for my baby's bottles and milk storage. He advised they previously provided medical fridges but they currently do not do so. I am so beyond disappointed. I expected so much more from this brand and now have to figure out something to do with my milk for my exclusively breast fed baby. Ugh, don't they have mother's stay at this property!? Marriott, do better!

My family and I arrived around 330AM on a Friday night/Saturday morning. Service: 4/5 The Night staff was awesome, hospitality was IMPECCABLE! From the receptionist , bellhop helper, security, you name it! I wish I could remember their names but the receptionist was a young African American male about early-mid 20s! The morning crew and afternoon crew need some pointers from the night shift staff because they need some work. Rooms: 3/5 Our room had 2 full size beds, they were nice and spacious for all 4 of us (3 adults & 1 child). No microwave was an inconvenience but it wasn’t too big of a deal since our short was stay. Overall I would rate our stay a 4/5 (Would have been 3.5/5 had it not been for the service we experienced when checking in.

I don't even know where to start here. So, I came up with my parents as my mother was having surgery at Northwestern. I called the hotel directly and asked if they had a patient rate for the days we were goint to be there and I was told yes. It was a great patient rate, so I booked one room for my parents with the patient rate, and one room for myself at full rate. I also had other family that came up and booked their own rooms as full rate. Our family had 5 rooms in total. Once I arrived, I pulled up to the hotel and there was no valet in site. I dropped my parents off, proceeded to unload the car and went to check in. I was going to just valet park for the night and I told the person checking us in that there was not a valet outside. She looked out and said ”yes he is right there”. He was sitting at a table smoking and talking to someone. She called him to come in and he asked me if I needed a cart. I said ”I did about 10 minutes ago”. I checked my parents into the patient room and then I checked into mine. The hotel itself is fine but in no way justifies the price tag AT ALL. Nothing special. I knew house keeping was every other day and on day 4 I called down to the front desk and let them know that housekeeping had never come to my room. She looked it up and she said ”I have actually never seen this before. It says that house keeping was requested not to come and that they were supposed to just do a wellness check”. I have no idea what that means either and it certainly was not requested by me. I told her I was going to the hospital and that to please send them to my room as the garbage needed changed, bedding needed changed and I was was out of towels. I went to the hospital and went into my room and is all housekeeping did was dump a bunch of towels on the bed. NOTHING ELSE. So, next day was check out day for my parents room. I was staying anther day. I went down to check out of my parents room and guess what? On my parents bill they only gave them the patient rate for 1 night! The whole reason why we picked this hotel was so that it would not be a finanacial burden for my parents. I told them at the front desk that when I booked the room over a month ago, that rate was available for all 5 nights. A ”manager” came from the back and told me ”sorry it's not available”. I said that makes no sense. I called probably 30 hotels and some had the rate only for a couple of days, some hotels did not have it available at all so I did not book there. He said ”we only get 20 rooms at that rate”. I said I understood that but when I booked the rate a month ago I was one of those 20 rooms. He then asked who I had booked with. I booked directly through the hotel. He said ”no the employee”. I told him I had no idea but I could tell him the date I booked and I also had the confirmation number. He said ” I cannot tell by that.” He said there was nothing he could do and I would have to talk to R
