Illinois & Michigan Canal: Touren und Aktivitäten

We had a very pleasant stay at the Kimpton Gray Hotel and particularly enjoyed staying in one of the suites. For anyone coming to Chicago for the Chicago Marathon, the location is excellent. The hotel is close to both the start and finish areas, and it is also conveniently positioned along the course, which makes it a great base for friends or family who want to cheer during the race. The staff were extremely friendly, helpful, and always available whenever we needed assistance, which made the stay feel very welcoming. Another advantage is the convenience on the ground floor: there is a Starbucks, a healthy smoothie shop, and an Italian restaurant. We would recommend making a reservation at the Italian restaurant before heading there for dinner, as it can get busy. Overall, a very comfortable stay in a great location, especially for marathon weekend.

Excellent location and excellent service, the room was always already cleaned when we've got back. We had a perfect stay in Chicago. We could reach almost everything we wanted to visit by foot and anything else we reached by one of the many trains or busses stopping nearby. One downside of the hotels location is the heavy traffic on the roads next to it, so it can be quite loud at night, but I would say the noise is nothing out of the ordinary if you are used to living in a busy city
