Historical Traveller Reviews of Park Hyatt Chicago Hotel
Awesome
from purplegirl
The rooms at the Park Hyatt are to die for in my opinion. They are just my style. Warm, ultra modern and clean. Wish I could afford to stay here more often.
Very luxurious hotel
from profpat
After treating my mother and father-in-law to a weekend downtown at the Park Hyatt, I can sum the hotel up in one word: Impressive. We live in the western suburbs of Chicago and wanted to make a “weekend” of it. I chose this hotel online and made the perfect choice.
Service:
Top-notch. Everyone from the reception desk, to bellmen to servers were polite and very gracious. They treat you like you're a king.
Check-in:
We arrived for our 3pm check-in at 2:45 and our room wasn’t ready yet. We checked our bags with the bellmen and walked down Rush street to decide where to eat dinner while we waited. I got a call on my cell phone at 4:45 letting me know the room was ready. This was a long wait for our room but didn’t bother us because there was lots of sightseeing. They seemed sincerely sorry we had to wait so long, too.
Location:
THIS is what you’re paying the big bucks for! This hotel is prime. It is smack on Michigan avenue, kiddie corner from Watertower place, You can walk a few blocks and swim at Oak Street beach, visit the Hancock building, catch a bus to navy pier or just walk around and take in the sights. Rush street in on the other side of this hotel, so you have access to plenty of great restaurants – all of which you can walk to!
Amenities:
This hotel has the most fabulous workout facility I’ve seen. Wonderful equipment in a setting that even tempts couch potatoes to work out! The 7th floor gym has glass windows that look out over the city and the hotel’s indoor lap pool. There are complimentary bottles of water and towels everywhere. The bathrooms have toothbrushes, toothpaste, mouthwash, lotions, shower caps: the works. You almost don’t even need to PACK if you’re staying here! (There are even candles burning in the ladies room for ambience!)
Rooms:
The good size rooms do not look like “hotel” rooms at all. They look like decorator showrooms. Beds have white feather top bedding and feather pillows. The bathrooms have lovely soaps, lotions, candles etc. There is potpourri in bowls in baths, on the desk, even by the elevators in the hall! But the view is to die for. We looked out over the lake and could watch the people strolling on Michigan avenue.
Final note:
We took a boat ride on Saturday night, and it was pointed out during the tour that Oprah owns the top penthouse in this hotel. I can see why.

Best Place to Stay in Chicago
from A TripAdvisor Member
I just returned from my 4th stay at this fabulous hotel. Having stayed at several hotels on Michigan Ave., this one is tops! You just can't beat the location, atmosphere, wonderful staff & impeccable service, not to mention that the room & bathroom sizes are one of the largest for a downtown hotel. The location is great - shopping & restaurants are all within easy walking distance, plus the hotel reastauant/lounge - NoMI, is excellent. Staying at the Park Hyatt, although located in a hub of activity, is a relaxing & serene experience.
Unbelievable
from 69jets69
Had a long weekend at the Park Hyatt 4/1/05-4//4/05 with my wife. To start the hotel and rooms smell great thanks to kiwi potpourri. Check in is a breeze and they apologized because I had to wait 5 seconds. The rooms are beautiful, large, modern and clean with an amazing bathroom. The health club and pool are top of the line and the service is unmatched anywhere. Food at Nomi is terrific though the portions are somewhat small. Their location is perfect for all activites. What a great weekend.
Fantastic
from A TripAdvisor Member
This is the place to choose if you travel to Chicago. Suberb bedroom with huge window, bathroom is like a private spa. The sound system as well as the tv is out of this world. The staff is very nice and attentive to details. Just to sum up: The best hotel in Chicago!
Wow, Wow, Wow!!!!!
from Jodygirl
You have to stay at this hotel! Especially if you are visiting the American Girl Doll store. I just returned from a weekend getaway at the Park Hyatt March 18th-20th. We stayed in their standard room, and let me tell you there was nothing standard about it. Everything was top of the line. Top shelf bottled water and fresh fruit awaited us upon arrival, the room was immaculate, flat screen t.v.'s with free movies in the bedroom and the bathroom. The bathroom was like having our own personal spa. Complimentary sea salts,loofah, and scented candles were just the beginning. We were worried about the room because we usually stay in a suite, but we booked last minute and this was all they had available. I was so suprised, and pleased! The room had huge windows with window seats over looking Michigan Ave. They even had a present from the doll store for each of my daughters sitting on the window seat when we arrived, and specialty cookies and milk for them before bedtime, all complimentary!!! We left in the evening to go to dinner and when we returned they had 2 doll beds awaiting my little girl's dolls and slippers and robes set out for us. The beds were heaven. I have stayed in some of the nicest hotels in Chicago and their beds cannot compare. I could go on for days on how great our stay was! Strange for me because I am very picky about where we stay. If you're big on service come here, it's the best service I have ever received in Chicago. The breakfast at Nomi was very good. I've been to the Ritz, Drake, and Peninsula, and the Park Hyatt has been my most memorable experience!
The Best of the Best
from lwag290
As a travel agent we hear and see the best and the worst and I have to say this is the Best Hotel I have ever stayed in. THe room was amazing. It overlooked the Water Tower and Lake Michigan. We were greeted quickly and up at our room within minutes of getting out of our car. We had drove over 7 hours from Minnesota. Our Bellman was informational and asked if we needed any further assistance and made us feel right at home.
The room was large with the beds being very comfortable. Now for even the better part the Bathroom was as large as my kitchen at home. It had a large deep tub and separate toliet and separate shower.
I cannot say enough about this hotel except it is worth every penny.

from A TripAdvisor Member
We have stayed at many Park Hyatt properties in the past and were very impressed with the Park Hyatt Chicago when we stayed at it for a weekend getaway. There is a reason why the Hyatt company calls the Chicago Park Hyatt their "flagship" Park Hyatt, and it is obvious to anybody who steps into this hotel. The hotel is centrally located on N. Michigan Avenue across from the Water Tower and within walking or 5-min taxi distance of all that you would want to do in downtown Chicago. On entering the hotel lobby, you feel like you've been transported into another world. The staff is extremely gracious and inviting, and the interior screams 5-star quality. The rooms are exceptional, even by Park Hyatt standards. Spacious, clean, wonderful amenities, LCD TV's, luxurious bathroom, beds you will not want to get out of... in a word: perfect. The hotel's flagship restaurant, NoMi has a wonderful brunch menu. Dinner at NoMi meets or exceeds the high standards you would expect at any top-tier fine restaurant in Chicago. We would recommend this hotel to all of our friends and family, and think that it is definitely worth the 5-star price.
Best rooms and Location
from A TripAdvisor Member
I have been fortunate to travel extensively in the U.S. on a fairly generous expense account and I've had a chance to stay in many of the best hotels in the country. Overall I'd have to say that the Park Hyatt Chicago is as fine as any city hotel in the U.S. We live just outside Chicago and when we want a city getaway, the Park Hyatt is the only game in town: The highlights:
LOCATION: It's the best in the city: across the street from the Water Tower and the John Hancock Tower, central to all the north Michigan avenue and Oak Street shopping, and directly opposite American Girl place. To be fair, the Ritz, the Four Seasons and the Peninsula are all in the neighborhood too.
ROOMS: This is a pretty new hotel so the rooms were designed with modern touches in mind: giant bathrooms with oversized tubs and an LCD TV; a long hallway separating the sleeping area from the corridors; a great padded window seat overlooking Michigan Avenue and the lake, Eames chairs in every room, Sony Flat-screen TVs with a home theater receiver and a DVD/CD player : all the toys. The decor is simple, modern and elegant, and is, to my mind, just right: not as severe and self consciously "hip" as a W or most of the modern boutique hotels, but not as silly as the attempts of a newly built Ritz-Carlton to look old and fancy. Michigan Avenue can be noisy so you may want to get a high floor. The standard rooms here are the nicest around.
PUBLIC SPACES: These too are in a restrained modern style. Very nice, but not over the top. It's a fairly small hotel so the lobby, the library sitting area, etc., are not huge. The rooms are so nice, though, that there's not much point to hanging out in the lobby. The spa, locker rooms and pool are all also top notch, but not large. Last week my wife and I had the whole pool and jacuzzi to ourselves: at 11:00 a.m on a Sunday!
SERVICE" We have stayed there with our daughters (2 and 8) and without. We were made to feel very welcome either way. We made no extraordinary demands on the hotle staff but received very good service whenever we dealt with the staff.
PRICE: We have always been able to get a room here for $200 to $300 and often an upgrade to a suite or a deluxe (eastern-facing) room. Why pay another hundred (or more) for the Peninsula or Ritz?

Park Hyatt
from A TripAdvisor Member
I spent three different weekends at the Park Hyatt in November and December of 2004. It was by far the best hotel in Chicago that I have stayed in. The staff is very friendly and attentive. I stayed in the Lake Suite and it was breathtaking. The view of the lake as well as part of the magnificent mile was wonderful. The bedroon had a large HDTV on the wall and there was a small one in the bathroom. The living room and kitchen were beautifully decorated. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone that wants class along with comfort.
Top Local Tips for Chicago
Spiaggia We really enjoyed this beautiful and delicious restaurant. Try the small plates like gnocci or polenta with mushrooms! This is a high quality romantic restaurant yet welcomes the casual shopper.
You must go to Wrigley Field Seeing baseball played here is Religious experience.
Try using the "L" Try using the "L"....it's an inexpensive way to get around the city. Also, when the weather permits, walking is a great way to see the city!
