The Hilton Chicago is a very nice hotel. It has a great ambiance, and plenty of history to boot. It is pretty conveniently located along the river, not too far away from the main downtown area. It has a few shops and restaurants inside. My room was really nice and has all the amenities that you would want in it. There is a finesse area, but I didn't use it at all because it is an additional cost. Seems like those types of things should be included. The onsite restaurants/bars are pretty good. The Irish bar can get really loud, so I took my food to go.
You can get a little lost when trying to find your room because the place is a bit like a maze, but once I got used to it, it wasn't too bad. Other than the fitness area costing extra money, the reason I gave the Chicago Hilton a 3 was because of the onsite convenience store not being open very late, and being pretty pricey. I got to the hotel after the store had closed, so I had to go out and pick something up for a small snack. There are soda vending machines on the room floors, but nothing for snacks. Also, a bag of shareable M&M's costs $7, about a 350% markup. If I wasn't there for work, I would probably find a different hotel. but this one is still very nice.
