Best Western Grant Park Hotel Hotel - Page 1

This hotel was very nice and the price was just great. Octovio, front desk mgr, was so so polite and courteous. The location was great. I would definitely stay here again. They go out of their way to help. I requested late checkout and there was no problem. Very good value.

First of all, I got an excellent price for Thanksgiving! This was fantastic because this hotel is located on the southern part of Chicago's Magnificent Mile! They upgraded my room to a lake view and I had an fabulous view of Grant Park and Lake Michigan! Absolutely breath taking! This hotel is downtown where parking is difficult, but this hotel has excellent valet parking! It's a daily fee with unlimited in-out parking from 6am to midnight. This Best Western Grant Park Hotel is located on Michigan Avenue where there are many many many bus lines, so there is no need to move your car once you arrive. This is an ideal location for holiday shopping and touring.The room was well designed and lovely! Large flat screen TV, microwave, refrigerator, balcony and complimentary internet! The room was a bit small and snug, but that was not an issue.

There is a nice restaurant connected to the hotel. The hotel lobby is nice for relaxing and people watching! Highly recommended!!

I stayed here with my family when we visited Chicago one time. At the time, they were doing their renovation. It probably would have been better if we had not been there at the time, but it was ok.

The renovation was obviously needed as the hotel was quite post-war 60's when we were there. Our room overlooked an empty outdoor swimming pool that looked like it was in serious disrepair. (I think it was being renovated.) The rooms were ok, but not fancy. Obviously, the key attraction here is low Best Western prices, and close proximity to Grant Park, The Miracle Mile, and Downtown.

However, there were some upsides. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, which is not the case sometimes at aging hotels. There was even a bellhop. In some ways, this hotel seemed stuck in time. The dining room was lovely, very '60's, but beautiful and fancy. The food was tasty, well-priced, and served by a professional and gracious staff.

Now that their renovation is done, this hotel is probably one of the cheapest and nicest hotels along Michigan Avenue, a good budget choice without staying at a motel.

No parking facilities were available as promised.

It was a great location, in walking distance to everything we intended to visit. The room was typical of a mid range room.
