We recently stayed 2 nights at the Hotel Monaco and it was the most friendly hotel we've ever stayed at. All staff members greeted us with hello upon passing through the lobby any time of day. We had a double queen room with huge window seats, mini bar, large bath, large flat screen tv, and free wifi. We are Kimpton... more

First time visit to this hotel property! It was a great experience and fabulous view overlooking the Chicago river! Near enough to walk to Nordstroms and other great stores on the magnificent mile. Staff was very friendly! Room was spotless and the beds were comfortable. Breakfast in the hotel dining room was good! I would recommend this hotel to anyone!... more

We (my wife, myself and our teenage son) stayed at The Hotel Monaco for four nights in mid-August. This was our third Kimpton Hotel experience, and although they have all been great and offer that Kimpton charm, the Monaco was exceptional. First, the location--on the river on Wabash near Wacker and a block from Michigan Ave and the "L" and... more

We loved Hotel Monaco... from its funky interior design to the added bonus of having your own pet fish during our stay... Hotel Monaco was a fantastic choice. With an excellent location, friendly and attentive staff we really enjoyed our time in Chicago. Parking is a little steep at $40.00 per night - but so is parking in any major... more

This hotel is top quality. My room was very well appointed with an extremely comfortable bed, big flat screen LCD tv, marble countertops in the bathroom, plenty of storage, a nice desk, and comforable corner chair and ottoman. I also loved the window seat! The professional staff provided excellent service and were helpful at every turn. The location was the... more

My company had a business conference at the Monaco. I regret only having the ability to stay one night! All staff, from the doormen to the concierge, were friendly and professional. Stayed in Room 907, a king , which was spacious and beautifully appointed. Linens and towels were fresh and plentiful. There are no refirgerators in the rooms.This room faced... more

What a great property and stay: - the location is great for tourists: 1 block from the north branch of the river and it's riverwalk; 1 block from the 'L and a half block farther to the subway, but not on a transit route itself (quieter); 5 minute walk to Millennium Park (and the least expensive long-term parking in the... more

While this is a decent hotel, it was not in our experience one of the best Chicago has to offer. We arrived at 2:00 on a Friday, with check in being at 3:00. No rooms were available, and were told to come back at 3:00. Came back at 3:00, still no rooms? My husband was in his work clothes, after... more

Our family (two daughters 13 and 10) just returned from a stay at the Hotel Monaco for one night (also stayed at the Park Hyatt~ wrote a review for that hotel as well). The Hotel Monaco does a nice job making you feel welcome but it is no Park Hyatt as far as the greeting goes. What I mean is... more
