  • "Chicago is not only a real city. . . and one of the world's great cities, but at the same time it's a city that's knowable, manageable, and workable. You can figure it out. It has a sense of cohesiveness..." Lucy Salenger, Chicago Office of Film and Entertainment, 1981

    When my sister came to stay in Chicago for a little over a week, she and I spent five of those days in Chicago at the Talbott Hotel. It's the perfect place for two unescorted women to stay because of its location and its safety. It is located just off North Michigan Avenue near the Water Tower and John Hancock Building.
    There are 149 rooms and suites, and all denote understated elegance. A nightly turn down and a morning newspaper are just two of the delightful services offered at the Talbott.
    The hotel was built in 1927 but has recently been renovated and is luxurious. We stayed in a large room with two Queen-sized beds,two end tables, a comfortable reading chair, and great wardrobe chest with plenty of space for storage. In addition, there was a nice-sized closet. There was an iron and ironing board, an in-room safe (which we used each day), cable TV, radio, clock, two phones (one in the bathroom.) Speaking of the bathroom; it was absolutely wonderful as was the complimentary bath soaps, shampoos, and lotions.
    It is a 4-Star Hotel.

    Check-in time is 3:00 PM
    Check-out is 12:00 PM

    It's a true European-style hotel where the staff remembers your name and is always there to help you. From 6:00am until 10:00 pm, room service is available.

    A Victorian Sitting Room serves as the lobby with two fire places. Basil's is just off the lobby with its Antique Bar and small seating area. In the summer there is a lovely outdoor eating space. The menu is light and perfect for snacks or lunch.
    We stayed under a special deal where the breakfast came with the room, and Basil's is where we ate each morning.
    The Talbott Hotel is a wonderful place to stay in Chicago.

  • I stayed for 2 nights, the service was rude. The location is nice and central, but its not worth putting up with the staff being rude and unhelpful. The only positive experience was that the concienrge was very nice to my girlfriend and gave us some bangade when I cut myself on the bathtub focet which happens to be sharp as a knife (watch out you parents with children or clusy adults like me).
    The worst, however, was that a friend of mine had his debit card overcharged by the hotel and even after they discovered the mistake, the hotel only refunded his money after he filed a police report for fraud with the Chicago Police Department!

    central location, but poor service and fraud attempt

  • I would highly recommend this hotel for anyone who wants to discover Chicago on foot! It is located just off Michigan Avenue, close to fantastic bars, restuarants and the beach. The rooms are spacious and nicely decorated. The concierge are extremely helpful and will direct you anywhere you wish to go. Would definitly stay here again.

    I set my parents up at this hotel because I thought they would like it better because of it's bed-and-breakfast feel. They absolutely loved their stay. The wood panelling, antiques, and leather armchairs make the hotel very relaxing in a very fast paced city. It's has 24 hour room service, and in the executive suites, a jacuzzi tub, Ask when making reservations because the rooms vary in size--the rooms aren't overly ornate, but they have what you need and cost less than a huge corporate hotel.

    Close to the Magnificent Mile, but doesn't have that corporate feel, quaint in a big city, and complete with interesting decor in the lobby, modified from an old apartment building.
