Guests say
Guests generally enjoyed the hotel's prime location, describing it as extremely convenient and ideal for accessing various attractions in Chicago. The staff received high praise for their accommodating service, helping make many guests' stays enjoyable. The bed comfort was notably appreciated, with many mentioning the fabulous mattresses and the quality of sleep. However, numerous guests expressed dissatisfaction regarding the high costs associated with parking, additional fees, and the small size of the rooms, which some felt did not meet the expectations of a 4.5-star hotel. While some amenities like the bar and restaurant were well-liked, guests also pointed out that certain features, like elevators and the condition of the carpets, could use improvement.

Not a good choice for families- kids stay free IF they sleep on the floor or in the bed with you. We booked a king room for 2 adults and a 9 year old. We travel often and when a hotel lets us book this type of room there's usually a pull out bed option for the 9 year old. When we arrived at this hotel we were told it would be $75/night for a roll away for him. This should be more up front when boo...

The carpet in the whole building is worn and dirty. The rooms were not very clean but not horrible. the parking is absurd and cost $78 a day. The hotel store is very expensive and above other stores in the area. I would NEVER stay there again.

Low points: Low quality of bathrobe. No laundry bag. Only one drawer for clothes (wrong location, you have to lower your back to open the drawer at the bottom. Lighting not bright enough when curtains are closed for the evening. High points: Inside entrance to Starbucks even though waiting line is long. Perfectly strategic location of downtown Chicago.

Pros (+) - The location on the Magnificent Mile, Michigan Avenue, is great and clearly what the hotel is counting on to cover for all of the shortcomings in the hotel.
Cons (-) My husband and I recently completed a 3 night stay at the InterContinental Chicago Magnificent Mile, unfortunately, we were quite disappointed in the hotel. - No recognition for Spire Ambassador status which should have gotten me a room upgrade but did not, even though staff assured me we had been given one. Why lie about it? - Room (Grand Tower King Suite) was in need of refurbishment with peelin...

Pros (+) Location is superb
Cons (-) Called front desk multiple time , and no one answered, was given the wrong room. No apologies or response despite sending them internal message. Rooms are small and parking at $71/ day is not fair.
