Top hotels in Lakeview
Congress Plaza Hotel
Location is amazing. The hotel was built in 1893 and it shows. The history attached to the hotel is pretty cool, but the place is in dire need of renovation. great location for the Art Institute and the Aquarium. Walk to both and the park is directly across the street.

Embassy Suites by Hilton Chicago Downtown River North
It wasn't worth the price we paid. Our flight was delayed and we got there a day late and was still charged for the unused night. The telephone in the room didn't work. Water leaked onto the floor when taking a shower. No parking was available.
