Top Lakeshore East Hotel Reviews

Hotel Saint Clair- Magnificent Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing location for baseball and the island"

Congress Plaza Hotel

8/10 Good

"The tV needs to be upgraded to digital..reception is awful and the picture is fuzzy and the dialogue is out of sync with the images. More outlets are needed in the rooms. The hallway smelled of weed, when it's a non-smoking hotel, that's disturbing. Room was clean and had a very nice lake-view. Need to allow for late chek out when guests are in town for an event."

Radisson Blu Aqua Hotel Chicago

10/10 Excellent

"Very creative Funky decor. Modern furnishings but some a little worn Beautiful corner room with balcony. Comfortable bed. Great bathroom with separate tub and huge shower. Great breakfast and dinner at restaurant. Was attending a conference at swissotel and was able to use connection pedway ( basement path) without exiting buildings. Was able to check in at about noon or 1 pm when I arrived. Requested and was granted late checkout. Great overall."
