A great stay at Hotel Monaco. We loved Chicago – it far exceeded our expectations and to think we were only there as that is where the trains go! The hotel Reception was warm, welcoming and quick. The lounge area by Reception, complete with fireplace, was comfortable although compact. We enjoyed the evening wine reception – found the wine and... more

Our family of four just returned from a 5 night stay at Hotel Monaco. This was our first visit to Chicago and as always, we used TripAdvisor to plan our vacation (thanks!!). We were not disappointed with the outcome! We took in all that Chicago AND Hotel Monaco had to offer. Hotel Monaco is conveniently located on the edge of... more

A group of girlfriends flew into Chicago to celebrate our 40th birthdays and we stayed at the Hotel Monaco. The location was perfect! The room was a great size with 2 large window seats overlooking the river. The beds were comfortable and even though we were right across from the elevator, we did not hear noise from the hallway. Service... more

The Hotel Monaco was wonderful. We had a Mediterranean Suite, which featured an enormous living room with pull out couch, desk, chair and flat screen TV and an enormous bedroom with king bed, chair, sitting area and another flat screen television. The bathroom was spacious with a very deep 2-person whirlpool tub and free-standing shower (the shower could be a... more

A group of girls and I were celebrating a friend's bachelorette party and stayed at the Hotel Monaco for one evening. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. I thought it was neat, each person who works in the hotel puts their favorite food underneath their name on their nametag! Funny! I was wondering why the man who... more

This hotel is wonderful. Warm quirky atmosphere, great service. If you can, choose the optional upgrade to the river view suite(they send you an email after you reserve a lesser room) Our tub had jets and came complete with lemon verbena soap, we practically needed a ladder to get into it! The beds are super comfy and all of the... more

We booked through the Kimpton website and got what we felt was a very good rate: $159 for a room with a view of the river. Parking is $40 per day. Since we were only there for one night, we did not investigate whether there might be less expensive alternatives. Due to construction in front of the entrance (about which... more

Hotel is located in perfect location, 2min work to train station, less than 5min work to the river for boat tour. The room we stayed in was simple but very clean with nice decoration and had a huge tv & comfortable bed. Why you pay more for hotels close by when you can get everything you need at hotel monaco... more
