We checked in with the Yelp! app. on my phone and got a free suite upgrade. The room was very large...it was actually 2 rooms. Gigantic bathroom with lots of counter space, a stand-up shower on one side and a bath tub on the other. It is directly next to the train tracks, in fact, our 3rd floor room was... More

Shared Thanksgiving weekend with family at The Silversmith! Helpful staff, top-quality rooms and convenient to the L. Safe and a great base for shopping, exploring architecture - and if you're a foody! More

I stayed at the Silversmith for 3 days in January 2012. The room had oak mission furniture and the hallways had a similar style. The room was clean and comfortable. The downtown elevated train loop runs right in front of the hotel. I would strongly recommend that you ask for a court yard side facing room. The staff was professional... More

Bought my wife theater tickets for Christmas, so I needed to find a hotel for the evening. We make it to Chicago once a year or so, but we haven't stayed overnight in a while. After some internet searching, I found the Silversmith hotel. Was only three blocks from the Chicago Theater. One plus. The Arts and Crafts style of... More

We stayed at the Silversmith in June 2011 for 12 days, so this review is a bit overdue. The location was convenient (at the corner of Madison and Wabash), the El stop right in front of the hotel. The windows were properly insulated, as the noise from the trains was very muffled. You could hear a faint noise from the... More

I booked a room at the Silversmith on Dec 17 of 2011. I booked it through a third party travel agent. Parking in Chicago is a really big hassle. When I booked the room, I asked the third party agent is parking included in the room numerous times. They assured me that parking was included. I even called the Silversmith... More

I can't say enough great things about this hotel especially for the price and location. The room was well appointed with a large spacious bathroom including plush robes. Beds were comfortable. If you are a light sleeper, you may want to request a higher floor due to the El being just outside, but it didn't bother us. The front desk... More
