Great value, great location!

We really liked just about everything, except for thr soft bed. We asked for a bed board but didn't get one. It's a modern, cool, fun place with great staff. Rooftop bar is not to be missed.

The Dana was cool

We spent most of our time out and about, but when we were in the hotel, service was very good, the rooms immaculate, and the decor and ambience were very trendy and cool.

One night stay

Overall my experience at the Dana was good. I've stayed there a few other times and have always enjoyed my stay. Everyone is always polite. The only complaint I had this time was that I could hear the music from either the room above or next to me. It wasn't fun waking up to loud music on a Sunday morning. Maybe their rooms aren't as soundproof as I had thought.

Disappointed.

We were disappointed by our stay at the Dana. The room was very small and dark: There were no windows, and the only sunlight and view was via a small door to a small balcony. In fact, the room was so small that there wasn't a dresser for your clothes. The doormen, the front desk and the bellmen were terrific, but when we ask a staffer on our floor for a coffee cup, we were told by him to go downstairs to get one, instead of taking it upon himself to help us. We have stayed in numerous Chicago hotels and, for the money, it was disappointing.

The Dana Does It For Me

The Dana Hotel is a superior hotel in an excellent location. The service there is first class and the staff is very attentive. TJ the doorman is the best I have ever encountered. He remembers every guests name is very knowlegeable about the area. The rooms are relatively small but to be expected for a downtown Chicago location. However, the rooms were extremely hip and clean.

good location,noisy @night

Staff was friendly,but at night lots of street noise, mostly a party type hotel.people stayed up all hours of the night,and you could hear them with the doors banging at 4 or 5 in the morning. Took us 45mins to check in upon arrival which was at 11pm. We had a late flight. The next day the key card wouldn't work,and had to go to desk to reactivate it. We did get to see blue man group, as we arranged tickets through the hotel concierge.

I love this place....

I was born and raised in Chicago so it's always an event when I go home, hanging with friends and family rediscovering Chicago since I mixed away 16yrs ago and only come home once a year. The staff was pleasant the mood and decor are inspiring, the location is great puts you in the best area to do anything! The rooms are sexy for singles and couples. 5 stars
