Sonesta Review

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 21 hours ago

The room service was very fast and consistient throughout my stay, front desk was very kind, and the rooms were perfectly clean and confortable. Check in and Check-out was very smooth with almost no waiting time, alongside the restaurant food offering diverse options and tasting wonderful. Would come again.

First time in Chicago

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 days ago

It was my first time in Chicago. The hotel was walking distance to most of the tourist places I wanted to visit which was pretty convenient specially because I had a short time in the city. The staff is friendly and helpful. They have an indoor pool and gym and this was a plus for me.

Great hotel in Chicago

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 5 days ago

I always stay here when in town for business. It’s a convenient hotel, close to pretty much everything. Great places around to eat or shop. The rooms are comfortable and staff is great. I always recommend the hotel for friends when they’re coming to Chicago.

There’s no place like home at The Royal Sonesta

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 6 days ago

The Royal Sonesta is our go to hotel every time we come back to our hometown of Chicago. All the staff from the valet team, concierge, front desk and the housekeeping team are all amazing and always has smiles on their faces. Gio from the night security team and Antwonne are like my brothers every time we come to stay. There is no other hotel we would ever stay at. Especially with those Fuji tubs in the rooms! Perfection and a 10/10!

It was alright.

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 week ago

Booked 2 rooms. One for my husband and I and our daughter and one for my mother in law. When booking we were advised that we would get city views. That didn’t really happen. We were told “this is what is left and wasn’t booked.” Interior was beautiful. Rooms were clean. We arrived on the day that Chicago had a huge parade… traffic was crazy, and no parking at the hotel. Overall, it was ok. My daughter had fun at the swimming pool.
