Perfect Hotel in Chicago

I had such a wonderful stay at the Guesthouse Hotel during a recent business trip to Chicago! My flight arrived earlier than expected, and the friendly staff went above and beyond to accommodate an early check-in, which made such a difference after traveling. The entire team was exceptional, professional, and welcoming. The hotel itself was spotless, beautifully maintained, and in a stunning location that made it easy to walk to so many great spots in the city. I would highly recommend this hotel, especially for families or anyone traveling with more than one person, as the space and amenities are perfect for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. I’m truly grateful for such a positive experience and will absolutely return on my next trip to Chicago!

A very charming, conveniently located (Andersonville) boutique hotel. The suites are large, clean, & comfortable. Take note, however, that there are NO TVs in the bedrooms. The shower water pressure was pretty weak, as well. Staff were friendly and helpful.
