Across numerous reviews, The Robey, Chicago, a Member of Design Hotels stands out for its vibrant Wicker Park location, friendly staff, stylish historic design, and lively rooftop bars with skyline views, alongside repeatedly noted compact rooms.
Guests often praise overall cleanliness and comfortable beds. Common drawbacks include city and train noise in some rooms, limited storage or workspace, and occasional closures or restricted hours at on-site venues. A few guests also disliked added destination fees, the very small pool, and aging elevators. Expect a boutique stay with great energy, best for travelers who prioritize neighborhood buzz over extra space and absolute quiet.

Facilities
Multiple on site bars and a rooftop lounge are highlights with great city views, but access can be limited by private events or earlier last calls. A small pool is available but sometimes closed; elevators feel older, and valet parking is convenient but costly.

Fabulous vibe. Gorgeous industrial design. Epic location. We didn’t want to leave!!! Only pet down was the pool. It was a small dipping triangle and the area was full of adults drinking so kids were a bit sad but otherwise- fabulous!

Rooms were small but very nice. Did not expect or appreciate the resort fee. The rooftop bar (the best part of the hotel in my opinion) says it's open until midnight but they do last call at 11 and don't let you up past then, so I consider it misleading to say it's open until midnight.

I was almost scalded in shower by temperature change of water, I set temperature but it suddenly turned hot as I leaped from shower. I prefer baths, you must request prior to visit. This happened twice. It was a New Year visit, guests were very noisy and loud in rooms and hallways until 3:45am, had to ask next door guests to quiet down. No parking on-site but Valet parking charge $49 a day. Hotel guests weren’t allowed to participate in New Year Celebration festivities, on site, no offer mentioned at time of booking. Rooftop pool was closed. Hotel needs to expand services like laundry, gift shop, newspapers, Hotel exceptionally clean, staff professional, patient, friendly. Hotel has three bars, meeting room adjacent side, room service, front desk staff and waitstaff accommodating. First floor Dining experience was very good, servers very nice. Bathroom on 2nd floor. I probably won’t return but I’d rate high 8 out of 10

Only thing that was disappointing was that each of the restaurant/bars on property were closed each night for private events. This was not disclosed at all in our booking process.

We had a great stay at The Robey. The room was clean, comfortable, and stylish. The staff were friendly and accommodating. There were some issues with an elevator (it’s an older building) and although I was only asking whether it was currently functional, the staff later let me know they comped a couple nights of valet parking for any inconvenience. We would definitely stay again. The location, right next to the blue line and walking distance to amazing food (Mindy’s Bakery, Taqueria Chignon, etc) is perfect.

This was a beautifully updated Art Deco hotel with attention to detail, including push button light switches. There are five restaurants/bars in the hotel. Excellent service and lots of activity. Hotel is a block from "L" train to downtown.

We stayed in the newer, redone warehouse. bigger room very simple and indie. Good place, bars, skyline view, and restaurant.

My friends and I were excited to go look at the view of Chicago from the Cabana Club on the 6th floor. After looking around for a few minutes, an extremely rude employee started walking towards us with a bad look on her face and when she got to the outdoor part said “You’re not allowed to be up here, it’s closed for a private party.” After telling her that neither my friends nor I were aware of this she rudely proclaimed that there was a sign on the first floor. We apologized for not knowing, or having seen the sign, and so we went back to our room. When we were back at the lobby subsequently, we found a sign next to the elevator that simply stated, “Closed for a private event”. But what happened to be closed for a private event was not actually indicated anywhere on this sign. It could have just as well been in reference to the Robey Cafe, which is right there in the hotel lobby only steps away from the sign. It was just very frustrating to get unrightfully chewed out by a member of the staff who had no intention of being forgiving or understanding of a simple mistake. I mean, god forbid we are able to use all of the amenities that are advertised to come with a stay that I pay my hard earned money for, right?

there seems to be two different levels of quality and my room was in a strange side building. My room was a cross between a janitor closet and a dorm room. Cement ceilings and duct work running through as well as wall mounted basin for a sink. Lockers and a bunk bed. No desk or anywhere to put things. Forced to work from the bed. Also the shower curtain was not an appropriate length and so water went everywhere on very slippery floors. There was not even any hooks in the bathroom nor any counter so there was no where to put anything. Bright spot are the bars and the staff was very nice. I would go again to the rooftop bar but not to stay.

We enjoyed our stay, staff were very friendly and helpful, room was clean with incredible views. We loved convenience for our needs and Robey cafe downstairs was superb. It’s an older building: our bathroom sink would clog frequently and the shower water took time to stop after shutting off. Otherwise, a charming stay. It is quite pricey but met our overall needs very well. Staff were lovely and attentive.

This location is great place to launch a visit to Chicago. The rail is right around the corner and buses pass in all directions. There are so many great and affordable dining options within a short walk from the Hotel. The rooms are comfortable and clean. Most importantly, they are quiet which is something hard to find in the city. I plan to stay here again.

Good restaurant on the first floor and a great bar on the 6th floor rooftop bar with great views of the city. The staff were very good and helpful. Our bed was comfortable and our room was very clean. The hotel is adjacent to the elevated train and the hotel had a noise machine provided in the room. There was a DJ playing music close by that Saturday evening, so the sound machine came in handy.

Lovely hotel with comfortable bed, beautiful room, excellent dining and bar experiences (3 on property). Service was impeccable and the neighborhood is fun with lots to do. My only discomfort was the lack of a bureau to put clothes away. The bathroom, while large, had very little space to unpack cosmetics and such.

Convenient location. The staff was hit and miss. Some of the people working at the front desk were not very friendly/warm and did not speak slowly or clearly when they were explaining things. I had to ask them to repeat what they said ... I am 40 years old and not hard of hearing. I would consider staying here in the future, but only if there are improvements to the staff and their attitude.

I was initially given Rm 312 which I have stayed in before which is over the nightclub and very noisy. I asked to be moved to a quiet room. Being handicap accessible was not necessary, but the hotel was able to move us on a very busy weekend which was hugely appreciated. The new room in the 5th floor was great. It is a small and very busy hotel and everyone there is very nice. I especially like the all day brunch in the restaurant. Highly recommend!

We’ve never stayed at this property but decided last minute for a staycation just parents. Check in was at 3 but they were a bit behind and the checkin desk kindly gave us 2 drink tokens for the bar they have a partnership with and a bfast order for the next day, which was very thoughtful and appreciated. We’ll definitely stay here again.

My friends and I were excited to go look at the view of Chicago from the Cabana Club on the 6th floor. After looking around for a few minutes, an extremely rude employee started walking towards us with a bad look on her face and when she got to the outdoor part said “You’re not allowed to be up here, it’s closed for a private party.” After telling her that neither my friends nor I were aware of this she rudely proclaimed that there was a sign on the first floor. We apologized for not knowing, or having seen the sign, and so we went back to our room. When we were back at the lobby subsequently, we found a sign next to the elevator that simply stated, “Closed for a private event”. But what happened to be closed for a private event was not actually indicated anywhere on this sign. It could have just as well been in reference to the Robey Cafe, which is right there in the hotel lobby only steps away from the sign. It was just very frustrating to get unrightfully chewed out by a member of the staff who had no intention of being forgiving or understanding of a simple mistake. I mean, god forbid we are able to use all of the amenities that are advertised to come with a stay that I pay my hard earned money for, right?

I love everything about the Robey. Now if the Damen CTA station only had an elevator for getting heavy bags up to the train platform life would be perfect!

Great location - amazing rooftop bar. Would definitely stay there again. Close to train but didn’t even need the sound machine in room. Bed was really comfortable- great night sleep! Cool historic building.

This location is great place to launch a visit to Chicago. The rail is right around the corner and buses pass in all directions. There are so many great and affordable dining options within a short walk from the Hotel. The rooms are comfortable and clean. Most importantly, they are quiet which is something hard to find in the city. I plan to stay here again.

Great location in West Town, a diverse eclectic place. Walkable to good food and drink, and next to El line downtown or airport(use it...parking is limited and an extra $50 a night. We stayed in the newer, redone warehouse. bigger room very simple and indie. Good place, bars, skyline view, and restaurant.

Dining
On site dining and bars earn strong praise for quality breakfast and brunch and well made cocktails, with multiple venues and skyline views. Downsides include occasional private event closures, limited snacks upstairs, and some inconsistent restaurant service.

Lovely hotel with comfortable bed, beautiful room, excellent dining and bar experiences (3 on property). Service was impeccable and the neighborhood is fun with lots to do. My only discomfort was the lack of a bureau to put clothes away. The bathroom, while large, had very little space to unpack cosmetics and such.

Only thing that was disappointing was that each of the restaurant/bars on property were closed each night for private events. This was not disclosed at all in our booking process.

The Robey is a beautiful building which has been skillfully changed from a bank to a hotel. The bar on the top floor is sensational, although there were limited food/snack options. All the staff were friendly and helpful. My only critique would be the rooms are very small. They are well appointed although keeping with the 1930 vibe, items such as a rotary phone etc do take up room so difficult a place to put own things e.g. mobile phone, book, etc. Also the light switches took a while to figure how they worked. The bathroom had good water pressure and the water hot, unfortunately water did go all over the floor as the door kept sweeping the bathmat across the floor. Apart from the size of the room, it is a lovely hotel located in Wicker Park. Very charming.

This was a beautifully updated Art Deco hotel with attention to detail, including push button light switches. There are five restaurants/bars in the hotel. Excellent service and lots of activity. Hotel is a block from "L" train to downtown.

We always stay at The Roby if we can when in Chicago. It’s right on the blue line in Wicker Park/Bucktown, so very convenient to O’Hare. Rooms are nicely designed, especially the larger annex loft rooms. The main restaurant is convenient and quite good and the rooftop bar is not to be missed for its outdoor space and views. Staff are wonderful.
