Our 5 day stay at the Palmer House was great. The staff was super friendly (especially the bell desk!), and the hotel itself is beautiful.
Pros
- Awesome location - so easy to get around
- Great staff
- Beautiful rooms (assuming you get one of the re-done ones - we upgraded to a bigger room and it was worth the extra $20 per night)
- Amazing gym
- Starbucks in the lobby - good place to meet and get caffeine fix
Cons
- No WiFi and it's not free (the hotel is one of the oldest in Chicago and built with super thick walls, making WiFi difficult)
- The regular rooms are very small, but typical for the age of the hotel (if you are by yourself without a lot of luggage, it's fine)
