This location is great place to launch a visit to Chicago. The rail is right around the corner and buses pass in all directions. There are so many great and affordable dining options within a short walk from the Hotel. The rooms are comfortable and clean. Most importantly, they are quiet which is something hard to find in the city. I plan to stay here again.

Very Rude Staff
My friends and I were excited to go look at the view of Chicago from the Cabana Club on the 6th floor. After looking around for a few minutes, an extremely rude employee started walking towards us with a bad look on her face and when she got to the outdoor part said “You’re not allowed to be up here, it’s closed for a private party.” After telling her that neither my friends nor I were aware of this she rudely proclaimed that there was a sign on the first floor. We apologized for not knowing, or having seen the sign, and so we went back to our room. When we were back at the lobby subsequently, we found a sign next to the elevator that simply stated, “Closed for a private event”. But what happened to be closed for a private event was not actually indicated anywhere on this sign. It could have just as well been in reference to the Robey Cafe, which is right there in the hotel lobby only steps away from the sign. It was just very frustrating to get unrightfully chewed out by a member of the staff who had no intention of being forgiving or understanding of a simple mistake. I mean, god forbid we are able to use all of the amenities that are advertised to come with a stay that I pay my hard earned money for, right?

An absolute yes!
The Robey is an experience in itself. The rooms are amazing, the beds so comfortable, friendly staff, good restaurants, and great location. Unfortunately when our room was cleaned the coffee and cups, cream, etc…was not restocked. I called to the front desk but finally just went downstairs to the lobby and brought it up to the room. The only other issue we had was the tv did not work, not sure if it was the remote or the tv itself. I just think for $400+ a night there should not be issues. Regardless, it’s an amazing hotel and I would absolutely stay there again.

Have to say that we felt The Robey was overrated. For the same nightly rate we could have stayed at a modern 5 star hotel with way more ambiance. This hotel has a spectacular roof restaurant. The rooms are dated, small and badly amenity lacking. Next time The Pendry, Park Hyatt or the 4 Seasons. Room rates are almost the same.

My mom and I stayed in the double queen room for 3 nights and had a fantastic stay. The room was beautiful and modern, the people were SO friendly, and atmosphere of the hotel was very hip and the rooftop was one of the best I've seen in the city.

Convenient location. The staff was hit and miss. Some of the people working at the front desk were not very friendly/warm and did not speak slowly or clearly when they were explaining things. I had to ask them to repeat what they said ... I am 40 years old and not hard of hearing. I would consider staying here in the future, but only if there are improvements to the staff and their attitude.
