EXACTLY WHAT WE NEEDED NEAR MICHIGAN AVENUE”

We stayed for a week at the Ivy Boutique Hotel. The rooms were spacious, modern, and clean. Housekeeping did an excellent job. While most of the large hotels had strikers picketing, our hotel had no strikers and was competently managed by the staff who were extremely accommodating with every request. Breakfast in the room was perfect, and the food was surprisingly good. The location was midway between the Chicago River and Oak Street, and just a couple of blocks off Michigan Avenue. We easily walked to the Art Institute, Millennium Park, the Trump International Hotel, John Hancock Building, Water Tower Place and 900 N Michigan, where Bloomingdales is located. The Ivy Boutique Hotel had everything we needed without the trouble of a big hotel entrance lobby. It was perfect in every way, and just what we were looking for.

Loved this hotel!”

We had an excellent 3 night stay at the Ivy Boutique Hotel—we were even sad to leave! We stayed in the King Suite and had an absolutely fantastic time. The room has a large bathroom with a large shower and bath and double sinks. It has a small kitchen/bar area and a large bedroom type area with a plush king bed. There's also a lounge room with a spacious and comfortable couch. There's also huge windows going out onto the street with mechanical curtains. There's three TVs—one in the lounge, one in the bedroom and even one in the bathroom mirror! Amenities were superb and housekeeping were fantastic and so friendly and welcoming. The reception staff were very helpful and friendly as well—they couldn't do enough for us and ensured they greeted us as soon as we left the hotel or reentered. We also loved the little sweet treats delivered to our room each afternoon. I would love to stay again and would definitely recommend the hotel to a friend!

Great bathroom and perfect bedroom”

The room was much bigger than expected with a separate lounge and bedroom area which made it very relaxing. There was a small kitchenette with coffee making facilities. The bathroom was large and luxurious. I really thought that this was great value for money in a central location in Chicago. There was a problem with the wifi during our stay and when this issue was raised with the hotel manager he was very professional in dealing with this matter. Whilst he could not get the wifi sorted during our stay he did provide us with a late check out and a complementary breakfast. I thought this was great customer service. The check in to the hotel was a little bit slow. Overall I really enjoyed my stay and I would happily book this hotel again.

Beautiful Hotel but proceed with caution”

The Ivy is a beautiful boutique hotel right in the heart of downtown Chicago. Perfect for my staycation! The location is amazing, Gorgeous rooftop terrace, very chic spacious suites. However, the outlets in our bathroom did not work, the hot water in the bathtub had extremely low water pressure, there were issues with the television, the mini fridge was not cold, and the staff at the front desk was rude. She could not find my reservation for my second night despite all of the information I provided her. Therefore, stating if I could not provide proof of my reservation, I needed to leave. How rude? I’m a guest in your hotel and this is how you speak to me? Thankfully, the manager was much more competent and found my reservation right away. Beautiful hotel, but proceed with caution. Maybe you will have a better experience.

It was awesome. ”

Yes. iwould recommend this hotel definitely. Location was terrific, and staffs were kind, and food was good(delivered to the room) Next time if I have a chance to revisit Chicago, I would not hesitate to restay at Ivy hotl.

Loved our time there”

We loved the Ivy! It's my new favorite hotel in Chicago. We stayed in there King Suite and it was so nice. Huge soaker tub, beautiful shower. Modern but warm decor. Bed was so comfortable and it was so quiet.

the king suit is amazing”

I recommend the king suit. it comes with a separate room with basic office furniture, sofa and TV. The blind and the curtain can be control by the switch. The bathtub is pretty large must try. The location is also nice,no more than 2 miles from all the Chicago landmark. However, the WiFi is not free, it is $9 for 24 hours. I didn't try any food in the restaurant, but there are a lot of good restaurant nearby.

A great Experience”

This is my second time in Chicago. This hotel is not far from where I meet at the ITW conference. When I arrived, they upgraded me to a suite. It was nice. I have a living room and a bed room. Very nice and tidy. Very clean. That makes me tip the cleaner every day without hesitation. The food is also nice surrounding the hotel.

Fantastic!”

The location was perfect and we were able to walk to so many places. We loved everything about the hotel and will definitely stay there again the next time we are in Chicago. Exceptional front desk staff and doormen. Very efficient all around.

Great little hotel”

I really enjoyed my stay at Ivy Boutique Hotel. The room was stylish and comfortable, the rooftop bar was a plus, and although they don't have a gym, you get free access to Planet Fitness just a few blocks away (good for the summer, but I would not have wanted to travel a few blocks for a gym if it were winter).

Exceptional”

Absolutely loved this hotel, classy, chic, elegant decor and right downtown. Very spacious and clean. Friendly staff .I would recommend this hotel to anyone travelling to Chicago!

I highly recommend this hotel”

Good service , good location and the room is really big nice and clean. If I come back to Chicago again I would choose this hotel. Perfect

Exceptional”

Great hotel on magnificent mile!! Huge clean room!! I was disappointed they did not have the roof top bar open on the very sunny day we arrived, because that was one of the reasons we booked that hotel.

Great location with modern rooms”

My fiance and I stayed one night at the Ivy just a few days before Christmas. The king suite was super awesome with a view of the street where we watched the snow fall from the cozy living room. The bed was very comfortable. Good water pressure in the shower. We would definitely stay here again. For the price point we were happily surprised.

Great location”

Best thing about this hotel is its location - close to everything for the first-time Chicago visitor. The room itself was fine but lacked some touches that would have made it excellent (e.g. closet was tiny and could not hang a full-length dress, no bath-robes, no wall art so the room felt very sparse, a little stingy with towels and toiletries, ultra-firm pillows...).

I fell in love with Ivy”

This is one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in. Loved everything about it. The little note from the room attendant and the treats left each evening were perfect. Oh and the breakfast was fab. The rooftop bar opened while I was there and it’s terrific. Thank you Ivy

great place”

We've stayed at the IVY a few times now. The room was excellent and quiet. The only complaint I have is the floors were never mopped and the shower wasn't really very clean. Floors looked like they had not been cleaned in quite some time. I don't think their room cleaning services are very good.

Perfect location”

Lovely hotel right at the center of magnificent mile... roomy and clean. Great service from the staff. Can't go wrong.

Great hotel apart from the bed”

I really loved this hotel, friendly staff, nice compact bar and dining area at the entrance, comfortable, good-sized room. Fantastic location around the corner from the Miracle Mile. Just a few El stops from Steppenwolf Theatre.The only disappointing element was the mattress on the bed. I awoke 2 of my 3 nights there with a sore back, and have had to book an osteopath. I would definitely stay there again, but I would insist on a firm mattress.

Very good”

We stayed in the king suite. It was an amazing retreat after a long day of walking. Very spacious, large bathtub and shower and separate living area. Located seconds from "the magnificent mile" and within walking distance to Millenium Park etc.
