Hotel Hilton Garden Inn Chicago Downtown/Magnificent Mile (Chicago, USA)

This hotel is located just off of the Magnificent Mile and within walking distance of everything, including shops, restaurants, bars, and nightlife. Nearby are Navy Pier and River North. A Redline train stop is located under the hotel and provides easy access to Wrigley Field and other attractions. The Chicago water taxi is just three blocks away.

The lobby area will have you feeling very Chicago, with warm tones and a Starbucks coffee shop inside. There is also a place to print your boarding pass if you're flying, which guests find very convenient.

Rooms are a decent size, well laid out, and very clean. Amenities include a microwave for warming up leftovers, a mini fridge, coffee maker, and flat-screen TV. There are also plenty of outlets for charging your electronic devices.

Guests say that on-site parking is very expensive, whether you do self-park or valet. However, as it is downtown Chicago, this is to be expected. There is a self-park just behind the hotel that offers covered parking for a little cheaper price.

Traffic noise and sirens can be heard throughout the day and night, no matter how high up your room is. If you're not used to city noise, this can be quite a distraction. Bring earplugs.

Breakfast is not included in the room price and is rather pricey. Guests recommend exploring Chicago nearby for a great place to grab a cheaper breakfast. Try The Corner Bakery just around the corner.
