I can only confirm the positve reviews previously mentioned. We stayed in room 1112, King with River View. No noise and very comfortable.The price was a bargain at $191 a night. I would stay here again. The "L" from Midway Airport lets you off about two blocks from the Hotel. It's a $2 ride - no need for a $40... more

Since we live in the Chicago area, we were looking forward to spending a night in the city. We found the hotel uneventfully, but as we drove up to the hotel, we discovered that the one way street was now two way and there was no signage. There was no one outside to either take the car or tell us... more

I stayed at the Hotel Monaco the weekend of October 24th and had a generally good experience. The location is terrific, overlooking the river in a nice area close to restaurants and shopping. I stayed in a fifth-floor two-room corner suite with great views. My rooms were very comfortably furnished with oversized couches and chairs, two large flat-screen TVs, and... more

I spent one night at the Monaco, and it was too short a stay. The location was perfect for me, close to the theatres. I had a tall room, which was fun (think tall ceilings, extra-tall robe plus regular sized robe). Only problem I had was to adjust the shower head--I needed to climb on the side of the tub... more

This was a very nice hotel. Maid service excellent. Clean rooms. They have a wine hour at night and coffee hour in the morning which are nice extra touches. The beds were comfortable. The only problem was the outside noise. more

We stayed in the Monaco six nights when we were over for the Chicago Marathon this year. The location close the Chicago River is excellent and very central. With River View rooms you have a proper view including Trump Towers and Marine City on the opposite side of the river. The atmosphere of the room and lounge is very comfortable.... more

Stayed at the Hotel Monaco from 10/9/08-10/13/08 for the Chicago Marathon. Hotel is in a convenient location to get to from airport (Midway). Take Orange Line from airport to State/Lake on Loop and you're a short walk from the Hotel. Hotel is right by the river. Arrived very early (10am) and was able to get room which was nice. Room... more

The Monaco is a very nice and comfortable hotel in an excellent location. Rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean. The staff is not as "friendly" as some described, though - we found them rather "professionally friendly", some even a bit smug (the concierge and one tall front desk guy). We got a good deal and paid only 180$ per night.... more

I traveled to Chicago with my daughter for her 16th birthday, and we booked a riverview queen room. It was great, beautiful, and she was really blown away by the windowseat in the room where you can look out over the river. We were very close to the theater district and also right down the street from the architectural foundation... more
