⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Stay at The Arlo Chicago We had a fantastic stay at The Arlo Chicago. From the moment we arrived, the experience was first-class — welcoming staff, beautifully designed spaces, and a perfect blend of comfort and modern style. The location is ideal, making it easy to explore the city, while still feeling like a quiet retreat at the end of the day. Our room was spotless, thoughtfully laid out, and incredibly comfortable. The attention to detail throughout the property really stands out. The staff deserves special recognition — friendly, professional, and genuinely attentive. They went out of their way to ensure everything was seamless during our stay. Highly recommend The Arlo Chicago for anyone looking for a stylish, comfortable, and well-run hotel experience in the heart of the city. We’ll absolutely be back.

My biggest sound complaint is the lack of sound proofing through the rooms. We were able to hear neighbors conversations in all directions. Also, we were woken up by the sound of neighbors opening their window curtains everyday. The room was smaller than it looked in the pictures online. The bedsheets were full of static and my partner had horrible sleep due to being shocked all night. Overall, we are disappointed by our stay at Arlo and it was not worth the price.
