Ace Hotel Chicago is an industrial-chic hotel that is set in the hip district of the West Loop. It is a magnet for Google employees who work across the street and urban nomads who want to experience the bustling West Loop

Located in the chic West Loop neighborhood, the Ace is positioned so that guests can look out the windows and see Google’s Midwest headquarters along with some of the city’s most popular bars. Sitting in a snug spot, guests at the hotel have an array of dining and drinking options. The location simply cannot be beaten; everything is within walking distance, including public transportation. Even locals book a night or two at the Ace just to enjoy a night on the town.

Amenities at the hotel include a skyline-framing rooftop with a trendy bar and a garden, plus a restaurant, a cafe, gym, and meeting, and event space. City Mouse is a family-friendly, very eclectic restaurant open all day and night, while the rooftop bar, Waydown, is open at night with limited food items, live music, cocktails, and beer.

The Ace has built a well-deserved rep for the coolest rooms in the West Loop, where guests feel like they’re in a friend’s apartment rather than a hotel. Accommodations include seven categories, from the small rooms to the ultra-luxe Ace Suite. All rooms include a fully stocked mini-bar with locally procured food and drinks, and the walls are decorated with unique art from locals. Some rooms even have turntables and a heap of vinyl records, while others feature acoustic Martin guitars.

Carefully-curated comforts and an ideal location make the Ace a popular hotel among travelers and locals alike.

4.0 Mediocre
The Emily is a very minimal and mediocre hotel in a great location. The rooms are extremely basic with no frills. No maid service or clean towels were brought to our room. When we got a print out of our receipt at the end of our stay it was $200 cheaper (for a 2 night stay) than what we paid through Kayak. I contacted Kayak and they would not refund any of the money to us. I would NEVER book through Kayak again.
