Great location and great property. Friendly and helpful staff. Lots of hustle and bustle around the area gives a lively vibe. Biggest downside is the view of Trump “Orange Clown” Tower - an absolute stain in Chicago.

The location of this hotel can't be beat. Right on the river close to everything downtown. My room was very large and I loved the facial masks provided. Thats such a luxury thing to give guests that you typically only see in hotels at higher price points. Service was also very good here. They have a free coffee bar in the lobby and the conbected restaurant was so good. The bartender there was amazing.

We stayed for 4 nights at the L7. Our room was a king suite on the 14th floor with a river view. AMAZING! Super clean, we loved the huge window seats, tons of high end decorative pillows, comfy bed, very spacious rooms, bathroom specious. The attention to details was notable. In the bathroom they had a piece of furniture with several shelves so the sink space did not get cluttered. Oh! The cold water in the bathroom was filtered and chilled -tasted great. Fast elevator service never felt crowded, Right across from Riverwalk. Ton of places to dine close by. Even the room key was made of bamboo! I can’t think of one single complaint or issue. We will be back to the L7 again.
