Top hotels in East Garfield Park
Hilton Chicago
Nice hotel, loved all the holiday decor in the lobby and the giant gingerbread Chicago. The historic decor around the hotel is also very interesting. The game area in the lobby was very much appreciated and was a great spot to hang out. The food and drinks at Herb and Kitchen was very overpriced ...
