The room was excellent. My pillow top bed was very comfortable. The room was very clean, and the bathroom was spotless. I enjoyed the friendly staff and thought the location was excellent. I could walk to many of the places I needed to visit.
I stayed here Feb. 1 for one evening to attend the opera. I had no problems. I had a nice quiet room on the fourth floor. Loved the large bathroom! One light was burned out (out of four)above the sinks in the bathroom - obviously a minor fault. Very comfortable bed. I'm bringing my family back to stay here next month for three nights, so that ...

The worst hotel I have ever stayed in!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/10/07
We checked in on Friday, August 10th, when we first arrived the lobby was very art deco like, but it was warm. But there were so many people there I assumed it was the crowd. We checked in and went to our room. On the way I noticed the elevator did not match the decor of the lobby. It was dark brown like old paneling, and cracked and peeling. When ...

Chicago BEST BUY!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/29/07
We were just driving by looking for something cool to stay in, as the traffic was preventing us from leaving town, and we passed by Hotel Blake. We looked it up online and rates were great, so we decided to stay and check it out. Check-in was pleasant and quick, in a fresh, clean environment. The rooms were spacious and up to date with a sassy, ...
Before I left to visit Chicago i did some reading of the reviews on here and other sites for this hotel, from reading them I was expecting a so-so hotel. This place was absolutely great! We were there for Lollapalooza which was held in Grant Park, it was about a 5 min walk from the hotel. The front desk staff were all very nice and helpful when ...

Definately will return
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/10/07
I was very impressed overall, great service, nice clean room, great layout. The complimentary bathrobes were a nice touch as well.
We returned every evening to find our room just as clean as the day we arrived, with new towels and anything else that may have been used up.
The room was a good temperature, and adjusting it was easy. The iPod ...

Good deal and good service
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/08/07
We got the room for $84 a night during the Taste of Chicago on July 4th. It was also pet friendly so we brought both of our dogs. We called a week before and it was a non-refundable $50 for the dogs. When we got there, they said per dog. Once we told them that's not what we were told, they waived the second fee. Nice little pubs and ...

Horrible Customer Service
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/05/07
I stayed at Hotel Blake for three nights (6/26/07 - 6/29/07) while in on business. When I valeted my car I was not told that I would not be able to reclaim my vehicle before 7:00 am. I tried to check out at 6:00 am and was processed at 6:10. I was told that they would not be able to get my vehicle until 7:00 am. I asked where it was and said ...

Excellent, great deal in Chicago
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/22/07
I loved the cleanliness of my room and I really enjoyed the Bath and Body Works products. Although the tiles needed some work, my overall room was spacious clean and open. I recommend bedskirts though, that makes a bed look much better. The restaurant was convenient, but it would have been great to just have a burger too, the menu seemed too ...
