Reviews of The Peninsula Chicago highlight exceptional service, a luxurious atmosphere, and a prime location near Michigan Avenue, with many guests praising thoughtful touches and a polished environment, while a minority note operational hiccups and occasional maintenance or noise issues.

Rooms are described as spacious and comfortable with modern touches, though some guests found lighting controls confusing, noted occasional wear, or experienced weak water pressure and city noise.

Overall, The Peninsula Chicago offers polished luxury with a few operational quirks to be aware of.

Our stay at The Peninsula Chicago was exceptional. The hotel is truly luxurious, and everything was top-notch. The only downside was that the lobby is located on the fourth floor, and only one out of the three elevators from the ground floor to the lobby was operational, which caused some delays. Other than that, everything was wonderful.

Overall a high-quality experience. What we did not like was the digital panel for lighting. It was hard to figure out, and the panel on the bedside table turned on automatically when we just touched the table for any reason... certainly NOT desirable in the middle of the night. It was annoying to not be able to just turn a light on and off with a switch.

I wish I knew all their names. Omar in particular is wonderful. Not to mention, it’s located within walking distance of all that downtown has to offer. The rooms are very spacious and so well appointed. It makes you want to move in. Big thanks to all the The Peninsula Chicago!

The Peninsula is a beautiful and elegant hotel. The rooms and very comfortable and the staff is very friendly. The restaurant Shanghai Terrace within the hotel is one of my favorite restaurants. However, there was a real technical challenge with the Internet - good connectivity should be standard for a hotel of this category. My room was on the 11th floor and when I needed the Internet for a 3 hour virtual Teams meeting it constantly broke down. Two persons from the hotel tried to help without any success. In the end I had to use my cell phone and go on 5G. Sorry, but the poor connectivity is really not acceptable nowadays.

Fantastic hotel with great staff and service. However due to proximity of hospitals, if you want uninterrupted sleep take ear plugs . Our room on 10th Floor and every night / early morning got woke up by the droning of ambulance sirens, weekends worse. Not the hotels fault but just want to make travellers aware - when I mentioned to reception staff, they clearly aware and admitted the issue. Would I stay again - nope! Purely due to The above

Beyond Expectation: A grateful shout-out to The Peninsula Hotels! Just left The Peninsula Chicago, and wow. Every single detail, from the moment I walked in, felt utterly and thoughtfully anticipated. It's rare to encounter service that truly thinks of everything before you even realize you need it, but The Peninsula delivers on that promise and then some. What truly set this stay apart, however, was their refreshingly discreet approach to gratuity. In an industry where tipping often feels obligatory and sometimes awkward when the service just wasn't what was expected, The Peninsula empowers you to recognize truly exceptional service on your own terms. I thought it was a subtle but powerful statement that reinforces their confidence in their team's dedication, and believe me, it was well-earned. At checkout, I realized I didn’t have enough cash to leave for the housekeeping staff. So, I asked if I could add a tip to my bill. I watched as the front desk attendant took cash, placed it in a sealed envelope, and wrote a handwritten note on it. I asked her to include: “Thank you for making my birthday so much better.” Thank you, Maria Razumich-Zec and all the great folks at The Peninsula Chicago, for a providing a genuinely luxurious experience.

Whenever we visit Chicago we always stay at The Peninsula because the service is impeccable. We stay here each year for Northcoast music festival and for my wife’s birthday. The staff is extremely friendly and always looking to help make your stay memorable. Each night when we would get back from the festival they would have a bucket of ice and waters ready. I can’t speak highly enough of the staff.

I loved the hotel. It was beautiful and the location was perfect. Their decoration for thanksgiving and Christmas was stunning. It’s a great luxury hotel however, the staff were not friendly. The room service was not great, they were too slow and we never had enough cups in the room. When I asked for 3 sets of tea of cups, I was asked how many people are staying in the hotel room. I did not like the question as it made me feel like she wanted to ensure I am not asking for more cups. I have stayed in luxury hotels before and I just didn’t feel that they valued me. Also, they charge for teas sachets which I think should be free. The staff downstairs were amazing though.
