This hotel was a complete surprise for me - in a great way. Being a Platinum Marriott Rewards member, we were upgraded to a suite overlooking the Chicago River, looking towards Michigan Blvd. It was magnificent! The service was excellent, the Club Lounge was well-staff and well-stocked. I would return here in a heartbeat! Hard to beat the central location... more

Great value for what you get. Clean and comfortable rooms. I travel on business and this property is in a great location in Chicago. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom had all the amenities you need including vanity mirror, hair dryer, nice soaps and shampoo. TV was the standard hotel variety. Ventilation system worked great but a little noisy... more

Have stayed at some Renaissance properties that were not that great in the past. This property was fantastic - rooms are big, great views of the river, walking distance to various places, friendly staff and great food. more

I stayed at the Renaissance Chicago for 4 nights in mid-June as part of a conference. I booked my hotel through the conference, then contacted Marriott directly to make sure they had my Gold number. When I checked in, I received an upgrade to a much nicer room on a higher floor - so all in all, I got a... more
