Verified Reviews of The Willows Hotel
Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Cozy and convenient"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
It’s not a modern tower but might be mistaken for one of the apartment buildings which it is nestled amongst. The lobby fireplace is a welcome sight when returning from a slushy winter trek in wintry Chicago. The desk staff are helpful and friendly.

"The beds are fabulous"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
Being close to everything is a plus; worth the money. And I find the beds to be exceedingly comfortable and, thankfully, clean.

"Historic Charm"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
We love the old world feel of this quaint hotel. Its location in Lincoln Park is ideal close to restaurants and in a very walkable neighborhood. This is our third stay and we will return.
