City Suites Hotel

I liked the location in the heart of Lakeview. I religiously use CTA when I travel to Chicago. Landed at Midway airport, took the Orange Line to Roosevelt on the Red Line to Belmont. The hotel four doors down from the station. The hotel is definitely vintage but well maintained and clean. I found it a value and will use it again.

Close to public transportation and many restaurants.

Good

Great Hotel clean quiet and peacefully My stay was only two days because of some work been done In my apartment But If I had to stay again I would come back to City Suite Hotel Michael Rupp

Great place to stay in the center of the clubbing district near Belmont and Halsted. Right off CTA train stop.

We felt like home

Good location, convenient for everything in Lakeview

We were visiting a few Chicago places, but one key one was on the L. Unfortunately, there were no hotels near that destination, so we looked near other L stops and found City Suites. The front desk staff were very helpful and knowledgeable. The on-line experience was mixed: I couldn't get clear information about parking from the web site, and e-mails gave a contact e-mail address that was never answered. Calling for parking gave me the address to use for local public parking, down the block and around the corner. I was surprised to discover that the room had a minibar: Snacks and drinks, with a price list. I don't think I'd seen that in a US hotel in over a decade or two. It was convenient, though. Another convenience was a QR code for a room delivery service that would provide pizzas, sandwiches, pasta, and so forth. While there are nice restaurants in the neighborhood, the "room service" option ran later. You pay for the privilege, of course, but they delivered ahead-of-schedule the two times I used it. For breakfast, we did the Chicago Bagel Authority one day. They specialize in steamed sandwiches, even if you just get a bagel and cream cheese. The result is hot and fresh-tasting. (Don't ask for a toaster!) Don't expect to have a great view. Our windows looked out on the brick wall of the building next door, with only the width of the ground-level passage in between. You'll get daylight, but you aren't going to see much. (I was in Tokyo earlier this year, and paid more for this same experience there!) The bathroom does not have a fan. It's an old Chicago code that allows bathrooms with an outside window to avoid vent fans. Our window had louvred windows that could be opened, though. I would definitely stay again if I needed to be in that area, or needed that nearby L access.
