Booked 2 rooms with 2 beds via Expedia and at the counter they only had 1 room with 2 beds and 1 room with a king bed which was kind of annoying. The manager at the counter wasn’t super helpful and a bit rude and blaiming the computer for this mistake. Hotel was nice and beds where good which was nice

We had a Queen room with a view of the river. The room was decently sized, but honestly, for what I paid I would've expected that the shower be more up to date. The bathroom was plenty big with a nice sink and mirror. The shower, however, looked to be where they pretty much stopped with any attempt at renovation or modernization. Just the basic old tub/shower combo with shower curtain and shower head that hardly puts out any water at all. Not a bad place by any means, just expected a little more.

We were put in a room on the 2nd floor that looked out onto 7-11. In place of a nice seating area that most rooms have, they had an elevated platform to block the view of the people walking by and the 7-11 storefront. Plus, there were stained glass windows I assume also to block the view. Kinda felt like a Motel 6. For $600 a night, I would have expected better. One night it was VERY loud because we were basically at street level. I asked the manager if we could switch rooms, but she couldn't have cared less and told us that the room met the class of rooms we booked. Too bad, previous stays have been really nice. We won't return.

This hotel is conveniently located right by the river and all the tourist attraction. Millennium Park, The Bean, Chicago Cultural Center, Art Institute of Chicago, Riverwalk, Navy Pier, and Magnificent Mile are all within walking distance. We stayed on the top floor in a room with the view of the river. Other than having to face the Trump tower, the view is really perfect. There are many food options in the area. I love how we can get coffee and/or espresso every day. Our room was very clean and quiet. The sitting area along the tall windows allow my family to have their own peaceful time. I highly recommend L7 Lotte when you visit Chicago.

The hotel is small, but room is spacious.
