The Buckingham Hotel

.

great staff,

A very spacious room with beautiful view of the Chicago skyline. Entrance can be tricky to find first time, inside 425 financial building and an elevator to the 39th floor then different elevator up to 40. Lovely little help yourself continental breakfast and easy location to get public transport or just walk around the downtown area.

Safe , clean & very secure.

My stay at the Buckingham Hotel was truly lovely. While locating the hotel can be a bit tricky (it’s tucked inside a business building and requires taking two elevators to reach the entrance) - it’s worth the effort. The entrance resembles a medical office more than a traditional hotel, but they’ve made an effort to add warmth with seasonal decorations. The staff were exceptionally friendly and even upgraded my room to a lake view, which was a wonderful surprise. The room itself was impressively spacious, spotless, and quiet, with stunning views. I especially appreciated the sense of privacy it offered right in the heart of the city. The location is fantastic- just a pleasant 20-minute walk to Millennium Park and the lakefront. There are plenty of nearby options for a quick bite or morning coffee, and the hotel also provides a convenient grab-and-go breakfast. I did not have a use for parking facilities during my stay, so I am unable to speak to parking.
