53 reviews for Amalfi Hotel Chicago, Chicago
Loved it!
By , 08/25/09
There was a bit of construction going on but didn't bother us. We had a two room end suite and loved it!!!! Look for certain times to get good deals!
 
 
 
 
 
Under Construction
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/29/08
We enjoyed the plush upscale room, but were annoyed by the construction. The happy hour and breakfast is great, but you have to enjoy it in your room. The lobby, bar and restuarants are under construction and will be untill Spring 2009.

This place exudes HIP
By TonyS, 06/29/08
We got bumped from another property to the Amalfi on a recent visit to the city. From now on, we'll be booking with Amalfi. We missed it after leaving. The place is hip without being annoying. Staff were helpful in every respect. The rooms (needed furniture upgrade in process) are excellent! The only aspect of this property that needs work is the breakfast on each floor. The selection was limited and offered more simple-carb-laden foods. The hotel staff seemed to struggle to keep all floors stocked, too. The breakfast disappeared early and was not replenished. Otherwise, a superb experience.

Great Deal/Location - Rooms OK
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/12/08
Free drinks (just about any) and a fabulous spread (antipasto, cheeses, & breads) for happy hour, Free breakfast (mostly baked goods - which were excellent!) and Free Wireless. We travel a lot - mostly business, so we're surprised when accommodations in places like Vegas, NY, and Chicago offer FREE wireless. They can charge upwards of $16 for one day! Not here though, even the stocked bar seemed reasonable. As far as the robes and slippers-it was a nice touch, literally the softest robe I'd ever found in a hotel (and they're almost always in Large or XL). Then, there's the room. We paid extra for a corner King - totally not worth it. One, because our corner overlooked the top of a building and another hotel's wall. Two, because there's really not much more room (but decorated well). Speaking of overlooking the top of a building, be warned that this hotel only has six floors, the top floors I believe are reserved for condo owners(?) If you travel a lot you know that the lower the floor the more street noise one hears. Keep that in mind, even the 6th floor was a bit noisy with construction (which began very early). The location is very good - near Harry Carey and other restaurants, Starbucks, a liquor store just around the block, and a very fun local pub which features a great band (without a cover charge). Dancing and partying there was the highlight of our stay. The staff upon check in was very very friendly. The bellman was new and didn't know much but very kind none the less. Upon check out, the staff wasn't all that knowledgeable and got us turned around when going to the airport (there are 2 airports in Chicago - duh). If you stay here, and I think you should, I would ask where the room faces and be sure it isn't near construction or the view obstructed (if thats important to you). I would also go to the 6th floor "bar" (converted meeting room - not bad though)right at 5:30 because it gets really busy. I would also forgo the mini bar (even if the prices aren't the worst I've seen) and take a few steps out the building to the liquor store - they have water, wine, beer, etc (and very affordable). Keep in mind because the mini bar (cooler/fridge) is stocked, room will be limited for your own drinks. Valet parking is a bit expensive ($39)but the alternative is parking at an off-property location. All and all - a great place.

Overrated as a pseudo-boutique hotel
By C W, 01/03/08
Overall Overpriced with average amenities and pretentious yet clueless service associates with smug titles (e.g. Experience Designer) who did nothing. Stayed here over the New Year's Eve holiday 2008. Initial experience was inviting even though front desk was clueless (they could name only one restaurant in the area & even forgot about the Keefer's Steakhouse in their own building!) • Room was clean & well decorated (despite being cramped) when we arrived. A 1970's tub with coordinating tile accentuated the unremarkable bathroom. But the mold along the all the tile was a nice touch! They made a big deal of providing 'Amalfi' robes & slippers. Too bad that I do not have an emaciated physique (just x-large) because no robe fit. • The evening is intended to be accented with an open bar for an hour or so at their top floor lounge (which is really buried in the middle of the building with no windows & resembles a tiny made-over elementary school cafeteria). They denied my wife a drink without ID; I should think a mother of 10 year old twins should exhibit enough experience in her appearance to warrant a martini. Maybe it would be flattering if the bartender did not make a huge scene of it in front of all the other guests. • The convenience of their “Buon Giorno” continental breakfast set up at each floor was about the same quality as a Hampton Inn (no knock but just a lot cheaper). The scones would be a good replacement for a lost puck at a Blackhawks game. In summary, avoid this place unless you like wasting money and hanging around with vapid guests who wish they were real people. The place made me want to leave Chicago ASAP!

Awesome Trip to Chicago
By Oscar, 11/14/07
We loved everything about the Amalfi Hotel. Location was great, right across the street from the famous restaurant/bar, Harry Caray's. Service was some of the best I have ever received from a hotel. Free continental brekfast and free nightly drinks - need I say more? The hotel seemed like it just opened, super clean. The lobby smelled great. The desk clerks at the reception area were very knowledgable and extremely helpful. This was simply a great place to stay. If I was going back to Chicago or knew somebody that was looking for a place to stay in Chicago, I would definitely recommend the Amalfi Hotel. We stayed in a suite and the view was absolutely amazing. We loved the Amalfi and hope to return soon.

Excellent Getaway Hotel
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/07/07
The Amalfi Hotel is an excellent getaway hotel. I loved the decor and aroma therapy that hits you the minute you walk in the door. The service was great and the price was reasonable. However, I would love to see more getaway deals and more compfortable pillows. Overall, The Amalfi Hotel is a "must stay" hotel in Chicago. -Pam C.-

Anniversary/Birthday visit - wonderful experience!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/08/07
The Amalfi hotel exceeded our expectations. We booked it because of the great rate, good location, and the good reviews. We spent the night there to celebrate a birthday and anniversary. Upon arrival to the room, we immediately noticed something was wrong - it was a suite! We called the front desk, and they indicated to us that we had been complimentarily upgraded. Nice! That immediately put us in a great mood and we felt it was a great touch to our special occasion. This hotel has complimentary happy hour on the 6th floor. It was a dimly lit conference room that had about half a dozen tables and a couple of couches. A sports channel was playing on the flat screen tv. They had a beautiful appetizer layout - wonderful cheeses, sliced meats, sauteed vegetables, and focaccia bread. It was delicious. They also offered drinks, and the bartenders offered anything from water, soda, beer, wine, and martinis. It was crowded when we got there, so we enjoyed our goodies in the comfort of our room. After spending the night out, we returned to find a bottle of wine. Again, another very nice touch! This hotel turns down beds and leaves Ghiradelli chocolates to enjoy. In the morning, we found a lovely spread of danishes, donuts, sconces, bagels, etc. along with bottled juice and coffee, on a buffet at the main entrance off of the elevators. The bathrooms were nicely appointed, with a double shower head that was awesome - so relaxing. The rooms were nicely decorated, although the material and fabrics used on the furiture does not seem to be able to take much of a beating (same thing goes for the dark furniture). The bed was very comfortable, as were the pillows, and the lighting from the windows was awesome. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and would not hesitate for a moment to stay there again. Thank you Amalfi for making our trip so memorable and fun!
