We traveled with our two small children for just one night. Alicia helped us check-in and immediately upgraded us to a suite when she saw we were going to be in need of a little extra room. The rooms were clean, great location and very friendly staff.

Recently my stay at the Allerton Hotel was good; not wow but satisfactory. The location is what made this hotel a great choice; right on the Magnificent Mile, lots of shopping, 15 mins. walk to either the Millennium or Grant Park, as well as 15 mins. walk to the Navy Pier. The nightclub street (Rush St.) is about a 10... More

We booked the Allerton on bookit.com for a little under $200 a night when we came to town for a wedding. The location is great and where we needed to be for the wedding, but the hotel was not as we expected. The queen size rooms don't actually have queen size beds- they are smaller, a full maybe? We have... More

This hotel is perfectly located downtown Chicago within walking distance to everything. The staff here were some of the nicest hotel staff I have ever seen. That made my stay so enjoyable. Also upon check in we were given a free upgrade to a suite. The room was huge with a seperate living room with a couch, mini bar, etc.... More

Initially disappointed on the first night we were given a room that didn't meet our booking criteria. However after complaining to the manager we were upgraded next day and given complimentary breakfast and Internet. Excellent location would stay there again

If you have stayed at the Knickerbocker, I would say this is comparable - although they do have a more open spacious lobby/bar area. This hotel was very cramped and small. We had a king bedroom and it was tiny - no room for a crib or chair or even to let our 7 yr old son sleep on the... More

I stayed at the Allerton Hotel in October 2012 (yes, I'm slow) and it proved to be a sound cheaper alternative for staying close to the Magnificent Mile. Upon arrival, the service at reception was excellent, and I was promptly upgraded to a larger room. The L-shaped room was clean but quite small. I experienced no issues with excessive noise,... More

Not sure when hotel was built - I would guess early 1900s. Our rooms are tiny and bathrooms even more so. Rooms are nicely decorated - sure wish bathroom didn't have flourescent fixture. Common areas are fairly worn and not real clean - however sleeping rooms are clean. Comfy bed but not like big hotels. Staff is very pleasant and... More

Great location as mentioned in many review. The price, lack of sound proofing or double glazing. You need ear plugs. The noise from Michigan Ave sails right into your room. The rooms are small, the bed the smallest I've stayed in in the U.S. more like what I'd expect in Paris. Having said that very clean and the bathroom is... More
