My wife and I stayed at the Chicago Hard Rock Hotel in December last year and had a great time! As soon as you walk into the hotel you feel like you are a welcomed guest and it continues through the entire hotel. Staff at check-in are very very nice. The room we had looked just like the pictures of... More

I understand that the hotel is creating this atmosphere of being at a concert or something, but seriously I could barely see in my room. I turned all the lights on. Other colleagues who stayed there told me the same thing. Good location with lots within walking distance. More

First of all got a great online rate for our stay in January. I am sure peak summer season that the prices will be more expensive. This is a great hotel right on Michigan Avenue. About a block to the Chicago river. Walking distance to many great sites including all the MIchigan Avenue shopping, Millennium Park, multiple restaurants and bars.... More

I went to visit a friend who was staying at this hotel on business. I knew they'd paid a corporate rate of under $100 a night but the first quote I got online was for $250 a night for a single king room and prices went up from there. I called to see if I could get a cheaper rate... More

This has been my 5th or 6th time staying at the Hard Rock for business. My first review pointed out that the hotel was consistent and a good value. However, there have been some improvements and also some issues that I want to point out during my last stay. The positives include a great concierge and very helpful front desk... More
