Recent Peninsula Chicago Review: "It's difficult to find anything bad to say about any Peninsula and the Chicago version is no exception. It's a 5-star experience through and through and though not the cheapest, it's a wonderful experience.
Even the smaller rooms are wonderful and the technology involved is top-notch. To be able to walk in the room, drop my iPhone in the dock and start playing music through the hutch speakers without doing much more than hitting the power button is excellent. Rooms are large and well appointed and I wish I had a bathroom like that in my own home.
The only complications we had were the room not being ready at the quoted 3 PM check-in time (got it about 45 min later) and then the staff forgot to bring up our held luggage once we got the room, so we had to call down. That said, they were very busy this weekend (Memorial day)...staff is top notch and on their game and these kinds of things happen at any hotel...they were very apologetic.
I didn't use the spa but it was gorgeous and my fiancA© had a wonderful time. Staff was courteous and appointments are 5-star. It is a favorite spa location for many locals as well as travelers.
Overall, it's a splurge for most but if you have the means, I highly recommend and can't wait to stay there again."
