I stayed at this hotel in downtown Chicago for five days, and overall, the experience was disappointing. At check-in on Sept 7 2025 , the staff was rude, he didn’t explain the $250 security deposit, and had me sign a form without clarifying it was for checkout times and policies. No one informed us about the hotel’s amenities, which we had to figure out ourselves. The room was clean, but the mattress was uncomfortable, it took three days to get extra pillows, and staff often acted unavailable or unhelpful. The location is convenient, but the lack of professionalism and poor service made the stay frustrating. I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re looking for comfort or a welcoming environment

Nice big rook with great bathroom. Shame that the hotel rooftop space in the picture is for functions only, and that I wasn’t given my vip benefits because the hotel isn’t honouring Expedia things anymore (or something), but the desk staff were friendly. Great location.

Love the Ivy Beautiful property and overall a great place to stay. However, check-in was delayed by about 30 minutes because the rooms weren’t ready due to no linen being available. Also, the front desk staff, while helpful, spoke very loudly when handling check-ins. A bit more discretion would make the experience feel more professional and private.

Great boutique hotel. The surrounding area is beyond fabulous. The housekeeping staff needs better training (they didn’t thoroughly clean the room before I checked in) and the front desk staff needs to be more truthful with the amenities and VIP access (the person who checked me in said the hotel didn’t have a bar/restaurant for me to receive my promo, but the person who checked me out said “oh we do have a bar”). Otherwise, I would definitely visit again

Great place

The hotel has parking about a block away in st. Claire street for $61/ day. Bring ticket to hotel for payment. The room was updated. Waterfall shower, tv in bathroom mirror, remote curtains, fridge with mini bar, coffee in room and lobby, beds very comfy. Chicago is noisy all night, bring earplugs. Walking distance to michigan ave, about a mile to the bean. No microwave. Has a separate room with tv and couch.
