What guests think

At Sheraton Grand Chicago Riverwalk, travelers widely praise the central riverfront location and views, while feedback on rooms and facilities is mixed, with dated decor, air-conditioning and plumbing hiccups, plus added fees and parking costs as common complaints.

Staff are frequently described as friendly and helpful, but service can be inconsistent, with slow or late check-ins, occasional overbooking, and unresponsive follow-ups reported. On-site dining gets mixed notes: some enjoyed breakfast and Shula’s, while others found prices high, the buffet ordinary, and bars or the cafe closed or short on items. Expect prime location and views, with trade-offs in added charges and aging rooms.

We had a wonderful view of the Chicago River and enjoyed the easy access to the Riverwalk. My only complaint was $70/day for parking and a $30/day resort fee that i didnt know about until after we completed our booking through Expedia.

Bell Hops were very helpful. AC worked very well. Not enough towels. Toilet didn’t flush even after we asked someone to fix it. Elevators were a disaster. Took over 10 minutes to get up and down every time tried to go up and down. Once thought we might be late for a dinner reservation.

I have stayed two previous times at this property. I chose again based on location, convenience and services offered. The only option for dining, snacks, cocktails and coffee was Shula's steakhouse and the cafe which had extremely limited hours. The Chi Town bar was closed the entire time we were there. For drinks prior to dinner, Shula's was our only in hotel option. The restaurant and bar area were both dirty and uninviting. I don't mind paying for good for or wine, but the conditions and quality do not come close to what you pay. After a day of exposed to extreme cold, there was not one option for an afternoon coffee or hot tea as the cafe closed late morning. I fully understand that staffing can be an issue. However, the other hotels close by we visited had plenty of options for what the Sheraton was lacking. It is rare that I leave a review of this kind as I'm aware of situations beyond the control of staff, but for the type and size of this hotel, I was shocked at the limited offerings. On a good note, the staff were extremely friendly and apologetic for these limitations. Customer service was the only thing the Sheraton got right this trip.

I decided i'd start with the main issue currently with the hotel. And i saw this first hand. The Sheraton is currently charging $30 extra as an "entertainment fee". Mind you it gives access to two museums (Not the good ones), $15 food credit, and a couple other things. This would be a good deal if there wasn't already so much to do in Chicago. I tried using the credit but items, as expected, were $20+. My initially arrival the front desk was busy, labor day weekend, i get it. The girl at the front desk said she couldn't find my reservation, i did book through hotels.com but i never have this issue. She struggled for a good 10m insisting i was wrong. I assured her i booked 3 months out to avoid this Labor Day rush. She found it and we were on our merry way. As for the hotel itself, the river view room is amazing. It was a great experience. The hotel itself is quite large. It's a walking distance away from the magnificent mile and the bean, and has a bus stop right across for faster travel. The gym and pool are kind of out of the way so don't book if that's your main amenities.

Really nice and close to walk to most everything. We saw they had a chi bar, burger joint and an ala-carte restaurant on their website so we chose to stay here. To find out on a Saturday eve they were all closed. Only thing that was open was a high end steak establishment. We ventured out and found good grub but was disappointed the advertised options were not open.

The hotel was not directly on the Riverwalk. I travel a lot and have stayed at better hotels for the money paid. Refrigerators and microwaves are the least accommodations that should be made available in the rooms. The elevators weren’t working on a couple occasions, not any late night food options and amenities very much lacking. We didn’t find the bottled water UNDER THE SINK IN THE BATHROOM till late the second day. Why not out in the room? Having to request for a fridge was inconvenient. Having to walk through a fitness center to get to a pool was very much lack luster. The hotel advertise to be ON THE RIVERWALK but it’s actually near the Riverwalk. Customer service was awesome. The people made our stay worth people there. The extra $30.00 per day for the same stuff is a scam. Why would someone want to go to the same museums everyday of their stay? I could have gotten more for my money elsewhere. Never again!!

Self parking only tight fit in underground parking. They charge a destination fee, $15 of that covers food charged to room (even if you don’t charge any food you have to pay it). Some of it covers WiFi but if your a member of their subscription service that waves your Wi-Fi fee but you still have to pay this. No one told us to swipe key in elevator so some worked without others didn’t. In either situation not all of the elevator buttons lit up properly. The room was just ‘eh’ nothing special. The double beds felt smaller (or maybe I’m just bigger now). The refrigerator didn’t work. One community microwave by the elevators. Cups left for drinking were still wrapped but the protective wrap had a bunch of poked holes, what kids did this? Not trusting them. Counters and shelving looked a bit old and beat up missing paint. For the price and the name I expected more. Looks like their money all goes to the large welcoming lobby.

Bathroom shower walls were caked with build up - tub drain was plugged. Maintenance made a remark as if it was my fault for it being clogged but I didnt even get to wash my hair or shave my legs due to the tub filling with water & making me feel even more dirty, I got out and asked it get unclogged before showering again. Tv would not function without hotel employee assistance, wifi was difficult to connect personal devices without employee assistance. Discussed my experience as I was checking out & the employee made a remark that the view of the room must not have impressed me & my guests. However, I am not sure why a view should make me overlook my accessibility to a functional shower & tv / experience.. Valet though AMAZING customer service toward me & my guests as well as providing safety to those on side walks, those being picked up by car service or those driving by or in the area of hotel parking/pickup dropoff.

We got there around 8pm, and there was no more open valet spots so we had to park at another hotel. Before we knew the valet was full, they had taken our luggage to our room while I checked in and my husband parked our car. The bellhop who brought our items up wouldn’t leave until we tipped & procceded to wait until my husband got to the room to be tipped (awkward). The bathroom especially the toilet area was not clean once we arrived in our room. There was no mini fridge or microwave in room and apparently you had to request this beforehand (I did not see this anywhere in the booking) and surprise they were out of mini fridges? I still don’t understand this? Doesn’t make sense as there was a specific spot for the fridge. The rooms are very small and dated. There was a chunk of tile missing on the bathroom wall in the shower. Overall, the only good thing was the view from our room, as we could see the river. I will not be returning.

I would have given a higher rating but when I arrived at 5pm I was informed that there was no room clean and ready when check in was at 4pm. We were attending a concert that started at 8 so we needed to start getting ready and I explained that. The check in rep told me that she doesn’t know when a room would be ready and honestly wasn’t very friendly. I had booked and paid for a king room with river and was offered a double bed with city view which is not what we wanted since my boyfriend is over 6 ft tall. After about 20 minutes of the rep messaging housekeeping we were told our room was ready. Once in our room, it was nice and the view was amazing. We went to our concert and when we returned for the night we were thirsty and were informed there were no vending machines at the hotel. With how expensive parking was that was very inconvenient to have to leave and pay parking again. It was very late so we did without any drinks until morning. There was no blanket in the room, only 3 sheets and the middle one was visibly dirty.

I have stayed two previous times at this property. I chose again based on location, convenience and services offered. The only option for dining, snacks, cocktails and coffee was Shula's steakhouse and the cafe which had extremely limited hours. The Chi Town bar was closed the entire time we were there. For drinks prior to dinner, Shula's was our only in hotel option. The restaurant and bar area were both dirty and uninviting. I don't mind paying for good for or wine, but the conditions and quality do not come close to what you pay. After a day of exposed to extreme cold, there was not one option for an afternoon coffee or hot tea as the cafe closed late morning. I fully understand that staffing can be an issue. However, the other hotels close by we visited had plenty of options for what the Sheraton was lacking. It is rare that I leave a review of this kind as I'm aware of situations beyond the control of staff, but for the type and size of this hotel, I was shocked at the limited offerings. On a good note, the staff were extremely friendly and apologetic for these limitations. Customer service was the only thing the Sheraton got right this trip.
