Homewood Suites by Hilton Chicago Downtown, hotel in Chicago

This all-suite hotel is located in downtown Chicago, surrounded by upscale dining and shopping in the trendy River North neighborhood. It features free WiFi throughout the property.

The hotel is in a very central location, it's very nice that you have a livingroom with a small kitchen and a seperate bedroom. It was very clean and the shower in the bathroom was nice, but located against the wall, so tall people have to bend to get their head wet. The breakfast was ok, not extensive, but ok.

    I did not expect an actually working fitness room, this was a very nice plus. Personnel super friendly and coffee in the room! This was certainly the best part. If the location suits you, it is ultimately a take. Colleagues of mine in the same trip choose to stay in hotels downtown Chicago, and for a similar budget, they got horrible rooms. I purchased a Ventra card and commuted with the Orange line to the city center, saved money and got a better deal.
