Reviews for The Royal Sonesta Chicago River North
Spiro was phenomenal
Spiro was amazing and so helpful and friendly. I appreciate him taking time to make sure each and everyone in our connect her retreat party was taken care of !! He even went as far as to take me up and down the elevator when the room key system was down for a moment. I truly appreciate the service.

Nice Business week
The location is excellent, and the room was very good as well. One particularly nice experience was related to the lobby floor, where you could always enjoy a good coffee in the morning and fresh water throughout the day. A standout part of my stay was the service from Spiro, who was always ready to help with anything I needed. His assistance was an extra positive highlight of my week

Great visit!
When we arrived, the hotel was undergoing a city inspection which caused significant unexpected noise in our room. The hotel staff was very accommodating and switched our room immediately to a quieter floor. The room was clean and spacious with very comfortable bedding. It is also in a very convenient location to many great restaurants and shopping.

Not going to another hotel in Chicago again
Arrived - warmly greeted, and offered a free upgrade to a luxury spa suite! Greeted every time we came and went by the front desk staff; breakfast was great and the wait staff superb. Pool was a little cool, but on the 17th floor, it had a wonderful view! Will absolutely stay here the next time in Chicago!

Exceptional Service Thanks to Edgar!
I had a wonderful dining experience thanks to Edgar! He was warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful with menu suggestions. His friendly personality made me feel right at home. While I waited for my food, we chatted about my travel plans, and it felt like talking to an old friend. The service truly made the meal even more memorable. Highly recommend asking for Edgar if you visit!
