Very convenient hotel

I enjoyed my stay here at the Aloft. This hotel is right in the middle of where everything is, plenty of food places, bars, activities, stores. It was so convenient. Will definitely stay here again. My only downfall was, there is no Swimming pool.

Aloft was a great hotel for a visit to Chicago: beautiful facilities and an extremely helpful staff. Our bathroom door was challenging to fully close so I told the front desk staff about the issue and they had it fixed before we came back a few hours later. Beatrix (the restaurant) had awesome food and drinks and we enjoyed all meals that we had there. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent area, everything within walking distance very clean staff very courteous and helpful. The only con is the area to eat inside the hotel where not hotel customer friendly since its independent from the hotel and you have to go outside and get through their doors and make the line which is for everyone i think they should prioritize hotel customers. Everything else was awesome
