Virgin rating

The hotel

Thanks to a combination of French chic and a convenient location, the Sofitel Chicago Magnificent Mile is an extremely stylish venue from where to experience the very best of Chicago. Guest rooms offer a complete range of contemporary amenities and designer comforts with some delicious downtown surroundings helping you get into the swing of things straight from touchdown. As Navy Pier, Bloomingdales and the MCA are just a few steps from your front door it won't take too long to get amongst the action, with Lake Michigan's shoreline always providing the perfect setting on a warm day in the Windy City. After a good day spent sightseeing or browsing the boutiques, CDA is definitely the best destination to revive your senses with Le Bar offering an uber cool alternative to get you in the mood as you plan the night ahead. A 24-hour fitness room and free WiFi offer just a couple more reasons to stay at the Sofitel and if you're looking for any more, then just gaze upwards at the architectural designs of Jean-Paul Viguier, and you certainly won't be disappointed.

Solo but was travelling from Jersey City NJ to visit friends living in the Southport area. Can’t fault the hotel from the moment I arrived until check-out. Had a morning flight so arrived around midday but a room was already available. Staff at front desk, in the restaurant and bar were some of the most friendly and helpful I’ve interacted with (apologies I cannot remember names, my memory for names is awful!) Extremely comfortable and spacious room, location was ideal and food and drink was on point. Keep up the good work and I look forward to returning when I am next in Chicago. Read less

Found the hotel to be centrally located for sightseeing and eating out. Many locations were within walking distance. Room with a view of the city view, but it was on a lower floor so it was obstructed. Encountered maintenance and housekeeping issues during our stay, but staff addresses them.

Very nice experience again in this luxury establishment, the rooms are spacious and extremely clean. the bedding is very comfortable and therefore allows for optimal rest. The gym is very well equipped, with new and very efficient equipment.

Absurd to charge a $25 'amenity fee' since I was told it was for the water and coffee setup in the lobby and also for use of the gym. Really unfortunate to charge guests for amenities that they may not even use. And $25 per night is ridiculously expensive. Besides that, the breakfast menu prices are also absurdly expensive. $27 for an egg… Read more
Absurd to charge a $25 'amenity fee' since I was told it was for the water and coffee setup in the lobby and also for use of the gym. Really unfortunate to charge guests for amenities that they may not even use. And $25 per night is ridiculously expensive. Besides that, the breakfast menu prices are also absurdly expensive. $27 for an egg omelette is crazy and other items were just as expensive (e.g., acai bowl for $19). I ordered eggs but had to return them when I found a hair in mine. Not a good experience. Read less

I inadvertently left my white Sony WH-1000XM5 headphone, cost $400. I made several phone calls and spoke to different staffs to no avail. I received an email confirming Item NOT found. The only place I’ve been where my item was NOT returned.
