I always love staying at the River Hotel when I’m in Chicago. It’s in the heart of the city, which makes it so easy to walk to everything. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. It’s become one of my go-to hotels whenever I visit Chicago.

The staff were very friendly, held our bags etc. Full size toiletries were available, which was great. Many attractions are nearby. The only downside was the restaurant that was once there is closed and the room would not cool off lower than 74. Otherwise a nice stay!
