Blake Hotel was excellent for us because it was central to tourist attractions (Millennium Park, River Walk) but also walkable to restaurants and breweries further to the south. Customer service was fantastic, hotel was clean, quiet and we would definitely stay again

There were some stains on the edge of the bedding but otherwise everything else was pretty good. Entrance area had construction going on but that was fine. Room was a little hot first night because it happened to get so warm out for November and AC’s weren’t on but they did offer fans.

Overall, I really enjoyed the stay - it was close to the marathon, which is why I came to Chicago. The beds were very comfortable. It was kind of hard to find the entrance upon arrival due to the scaffolding near the doors (construction). The front desk staff was extremely friendly.
