The Hotel Burnham is rich in architecture history and the sense of romance fills the lobby up to the guestrooms. Located in the heart of Chicago on historic State St. the Hotel Burnham projects an atmosphere of historical and whimsy decorated to the hotels theme of architecture. Dark finished mahogany wood rich colored leathers and silk drapery unite to recreate the mens club feel that once occupied this space. Tumbled stone flooring in the entry lobby compliment the restored stone floor used in the original lobby. Windows feature incredible views of downtown Chicago and are draped in handsome blue velvet and tie back panels with samplings of Mozarts symphonies.

Late Checkin

The Hotel Kimpton was a nice hotel. But at check in I called ahead to see if I could check in early about 2:30 instead of the 3:00 they said it wasn't possible. I had dinner plans at 4:15 so I was at the hotel at 3:00 they informed me it would be a bit around 3:20 I took a walk and came back at 3;30 and was informed that it would be 4:00 I told them this wasn't going to do. Front desk person said they would do the best the could I finally got into the room at 3:55 made my dinner and was happy. My only complaint was to inform guest of the correct times.

Great Hotel

This is a great hotel. The staff is very friendly, the hotel is in a perfect location, right near the red,orange, green, brown line on the L, one block up from Millenium Park (a must see). I especially liked the decor of the room, it made you feel like you were staying in a royal guest room. And the toiletries were great.

GREAT ROMANTIC WEEKEND SPOT

The location of this historic hotel is perfect. My request for a top floor room with a view was granted cheerfully . We liked the touch of having a small goldfish in the room-the perfect pet for our stay! Very high quality furnishings and bedding.

Great Hotel

My significant other and I stayed here this past weekend and had a wonderful visit. The rooms have tasteful decorations and adequate room to move about and stow luggage. The service / concierge offered appropriate helpful dining suggestions and walking directions. The rooms were immaculate and the turndown service is a nice touch. Hotel Burnham, in some ways is a destination in itself. Definitely recommended.

Good things come in small packages

The Burnham is a small hotel which has many things going for it: 1)great location in the loop, particularly if you are in town for theater, opera,concerts, shopping on State Street, etc; 2) wonderful preservation of an historic building; 3) rooms while on the small side are loaded with wonderful amenities; 4) great restaurant-the Atwood; 5) courteous and helpful staff

Excellent Loop Location

The Burnham is one block from the Daley Center in the heart of the Loop. This is a great spot for the business traveler. It has the hallmarks of Kimpton hotels: small, well-appointed room; very cool public areas; sharp bar and restaurant. My only beef was the construction. There will be a superstop from both airports, though; so the convenience of the Burnham will be even better when they are done.

If you don't want a $25 cab drive from Midway, train stops are 2-3 blocks away. Look for coming front-door subway stop.

Ein hervorragendes Preis-Leist

Ein hervorragendes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis! Super-sauber und sehr großzügig vom Platz, Lage unschlagbar. Frühstück ist nicht billig, man sollte um die Ecke ins Corned Bakery (oder viele andere in der Nähe) gehen.
