Downtown Chicago is full of over-priced hotels with bad service and poor room quality. The Kimpton Allegro is a nice change of pace to all of that. The staff is very friendly and helpful. My check-in was fast and both the bell and desk staffs were very courteous. The rooms are on the small sode, which is normal in Chicago. However, the bed was very, very comfortable. The room had a big-screen tv, and good internet access. Overall, the room was much better than most other hotels, including some of the bigger and more famous named hotels in Chicago. The bathroom also was a bit small, but very nicely done. They provide Aveda shampoo, conditioner, soaps and skin lotion -- which was nice. The room had a well-stocked minibar, with drinks, snaks and other potential necessities. The hotel's Encore bar was nice. My only complaint is that the bar staff is not very prompt at tracking food and snack orders, but other than that, the service is generally good, prices are better than what I expected, and it's nice. There is a wine and snack reception in the lobby every day from 5 p.m. - 6 p.m., and it is lovely. It's a nice way to get together with people you're with, or to meet others. I had business associates staying in several hotels downtown this week, and they all paid a lot more for lower quality. Given the experiences of co-workers at other hotels, and my own experiences with other hotels in downtown Chicago, I'm happy to recommend the Kimpton Allegro and I do plan to stay there again.

This hotel was an excellent choice for us. Yes, the rooms are on the small size, but still adequate. Recently remodel everything was new and in great shape. The service from the front desk and others was very good, friendly and helpful. The 5 pm wine reception was a nice extra. We found a great rate on Perfect Escapes (vial Yahoo) at $111.

My husband and I spent our anniversary weekend downtown Chicago and the hotel was great. Wonderful concierge service that went above an beyond to find a entertainment. Beautiful rooms. and the bed was sooo comfortable that I slept better than I do at home. Hotel decor stands out and feels luxurious. Great place..we will return to stay here again.

First, the positive: The location is great, the staff was very friendly and polite, and the free wi-fi, free wine reception and cleanliness is great. The room service menu is very nice and the prices are not as bad as some other hotels. The bad: The bathroom is very smal and has wierd doors. They are more like closet doors, and they are tough to open. I got one side open and was afraid to pull on the other side because it felt as if it would break. Very strange. Next, I woke in the middle of the night very thirsty. I called to the desk to ask them where a vending area was in this massive hotel only to find out... they didn't have one. I can honestly say that I have never been to a hotel that lacked a soda machine. Very strange.

I've been here three times and still can't believe how unique and marvelous this hotel is; really, the entire kimpton boutique hotel experience is so personal and different, i'll always look to stay in one before some mass chain.

This hotel is rather stupid to be frank. It's a horrible attempt to be retro-sheek but ends up looking similar to that Saturday Night live skit where things are so sheek that they are not functional. The rooms are about the size of a shoe box and there isn't much in them. I actually like the Pedestal in the bathroom but there is no sink. I had to put my make-up on using the toliet for 5-days. It also took me 10-minutes to figure out how to turn on the shower and the bathroom is more like a closet then anything. I had guests over one evening and everyone could hear everyone pee b/c the bathroom doors aren't doors at all and there is no bathroom fan! It was just over the top for me and lots of costruction nearby to keep you up at night. On a good note, the staff are really friendly and the place is really clean. That's about the only good thing I can say about this place. I would not go back.

I have stayed here several times while working in Chicago - I LOVE THIS HOTEL!!! It is my favorite in Chicago. It's not what I would consider a family friendly hotel as the rooms are small, but if you are by yourself, the rooms are delightful. I would use this also for a romantic getaway hotel - the decor is so original. Great location in Chicago too

The Allegro Hotel was the perfect spot to stay in the heart of theatre district in Chicago - able to walk to the Oriental Theatre to see Wicked! Close to trains, but all the shops around the hotel were closed on Sunday and Monday for Labor Day weekend. No restaurants or bars within walking distance. Great Aveda products in rooms - love the bed! So comfortable!! The walls were a little thin and could hear the party next door! The service when we checked in and out was quick and efficient, but trying to contact someone at the front desk was impossible. Great decor inside, rooms are a little small. I'd recommend the Allegro Hotel for the price and location downtown.

The hotel theme is perfect for the theater crowd - and in the perfect location as well. Rooms are small, but nice. There is a nightly reception in the lobby, but come dressed for it. The hotel staff is a different story. They were rude and ignored us on more than one occasion during our stay. Be dressed in a suit and free with the tips if you want any help. If you are there on business, the wireless connection is slow, and it's hard to get anything done.
