Room 2148 was great, spacious and had a good view. House keeping did a good job. My only concern was that I had someone use a key and walked into my room with the “Do not disturb sign” on the door. This was around 9am I had just gotten water from the dispenser and came back to the room. Housekeeping was working on that floor and I know he wasn’t part of housekeeping. He did apologize and left immediately, but it does raised questions and seemed suspicious. I did not follow up with the incident because I was already going to checkout that morning.

I love the beautiful view over the river and city!! Everything was clean, bed was very comfortable, and the N'espresso coffee in the room is delicious--not the usual bland hotel coffee. I also appreciated the water carafes and filtered water station where I could also get seltzer and hot water for tea. This is my second time staying here, and not my last!

⭐️⭐️⭐️☆☆ – Beautiful Hotel, Missed the Mark on Service I recently stayed at Voco Chicago to celebrate my birthday. While the room itself was beautiful and the view was truly top-notch, several aspects of my stay fell short of expectations. Prior to my arrival, I informed the hotel I’d be celebrating a special occasion. It would have been a thoughtful touch to provide any form of acknowledgment—a small birthday card, a complimentary slice of cake, drink voucher, or even a simple “Happy Birthday” note. Unfortunately, there was nothing, which felt disappointing for a hotel of this caliber. The daily parking rate of $61/night also felt excessive. Comparable downtown hotels offer rates in the $40–$50 range, so the price was surprisingly high. Additionally, I didn’t receive room service during my stay and had to request towels myself. When I asked for a luggage cart, I was told none were available. I assumed I would be contacted once one was free, but no follow-up was provided. Ironically, on my first trip to the car, I noticed two carts sitting unattended near the elevator. Overall, the hotel is gorgeous and well-located with impressive views, but the lack of attention to guest experience and service made my stay less memorable than it could have been. With better customer care and more reasonable parking, this could easily be a five-star experience
