Incredible Staff All Around
The gentleman that checked us in was by far and away the best service I have ever received at a hotel. The desk staff was always smiling, offering to help, and friendly. The entire hotel was incredibly clean, quiet, and welcoming. On the way out the room attendants preparing to clean also were very polite and happy with a good morning as we left.

Amazing Stay
I stayed at the Hyatt hotel over the weekend and overall they experience was very great. The rooms were very spacious that and the beds were very comfortable as well. The breakfast was one of the best I've had in a hotel. I would say I would highly recommend this hotel because of the convenience of it being down to all the major attractions downtown.

Great for seeing a show!
Great location for seeing a show at United Center. Walk was easy and didn’t feel uneasy late at night. Breakfast was nice, very clean, typical options like eggs, pancakes, sausage etc. piping hot coffee! Rooms spacious can tell it was a hospital from the layout. Only major complaint was that our TV was not working great but that could have been weather related.
