Guest Reviews

Sharon (9/5): Nice and relaxing location accessible - Breakfast would be better if the BACON was fully cooked crispy Access to a Microwave at Breakfast time would ha e been great.
Rochelle (7/5): -
sricanati (2/5): Worst experience ever. - This was a top three worst hotel experience of my travel career. I was at this hotel for business and they moved my room without my consent, throwing my clothes in a trash bag including putting in my toothbrush with my running shoes, gross! When I talk to the staff, they said they were not here when this happened and therefore were not responsible. I'm attaching a picture of my clothes in the trash bag
Tonia (10/5): Modern, comfortable hotel - Very friendly and helpful staff with restaurants all around.
deanao341 (10/5): Great location amazing staff - This hotel was wonderful the location was perfect everything was within walking distance it was clean everything worked wonderful and the staff was amazing
Melissa (6/5): More on the fair range of comfort at a luxury price. Great to be within walking distance to the Univ - One of the few options close to the University of Chicago More on the fair range of comfort at a luxury price. Great to be within walking distance to the University though. True story: I called for maintenance because the loo wasn't flushing, but instead of fixing it for us, they literally handed me a toilet plunger from the door. I was literally speechless! After paying $850 for 2 nights.... apparently I'm also expected to handle the maintenance issues myself. Just know your paying for the location, not quality.
Pesikoff (7/5): Good stay. - Location close to university of Chicago . Shops on street available. Very mediocre facility. Heating/cooling unit very outdated and uncomfortable. Blows on bed and noisy. Limited housekeeping. Expensive for what it is.
hoangnguyenn2026 (4/5): Bad room quality - The staff are incredibly kind, so I want to be clear that this isn’t about them at all. The issue is purely with the room quality, which has been really poor. I had to move rooms because of renovations, but the new room has been really disappointing. There’s a strong unpleasant smell, and the AC runs loudly all night, making it hard to sleep.

S4489IKjack (6/5): Generally ok. - Generally, nice hotel with location accessible to many restaurants and shops. Rooms were good size and staff was friendly. Had some difficulty with thr room being over 80 despite cool temperatures outside, staff was unable to help. Ice machine in desperate need of cleaning and pool out of order.
HONG (10/5): -
dianemQ7235MR (10/5): Lovely Hotel in Hyde Park - Great location, quiet, clean, welcoming hotel with a great breakfast. Fitness room has nice machines. Grocery stores and bus/train access nearby. Walkable area with restaurants and close to Lake Michigan.
Phillips (2/5): I would not stay here again - Just the location Firstly I was charged on booking.com before arriving and still was charged again once I got to the property then the tv was skipping and searching for signal all night couldn’t enjoy that and lastly the pool looked dirty and has rust in it
Mariusz (8/5): -
946claritah (10/5): Great Hyde Park Lodging - The property was clean & modern with refreshed bed & bath linens and breakfast exceeded our expectations! Having numerous nearby restaurants was a bonus.
Steven (7/5): Solid 4/5 stars. - It was very clean. Parking options are an issue.
Heather Jin Hee (10/5): -
Zina (10/5): Excellent - The customer service was great. The atmosphere was even better. everyone was friendly, helpful, and nice. Really do appreciate them and my time that I stayed here.

931annee (10/5): Great breakfast, great staff, great hospitality - The staff team at this hotel is outstanding and go above and beyond in hospitality and responsiveness to the needs of guests. I really enjoyed the complimentary breakfast, too. They had fresh, hot oatmeal and lots of different toppings to choose from, which made it feel special. There was oatmilk, which I'm always grateful to see because of food allergies I have. The hot items and protein options were excellent. You can tell that care and thoughtful hospitality go into all the decisions made at this hotel.

Carrie (8/5): It was great except the staff ruined it for us - It was very clean great location but staff was HORRIBLE! Very very rude, asked for a Starbucks they legit but my head off and said well all we have is beans it won’t be fancy! It had a Starbucks sign so I assumed they made it wasn’t made very clear that they didn’t have a menu, so she then proceeded to make my coffee very angrily, I was very uncomfortable, then my family and I was woke up out of dead sleep at midnight with the next room screaming at their kids for well over an hour, I didn’t say anything till it continued to go on for about 45 min so I went down to the desk as our phone in the room doesn’t call the front desk, the same lady I dealt with the coffee was there and she legit acted annoyed as hell that it was 1am and my whole family was woke up, she didn’t do shit about it, didn’t move a muscle and basically made me feel like I just needed to deal with it, and this am I had another rude staff member, you should have some nice staff members because your hotel is amazing but I will not be back because of the 2 VERY RUDE staff members other than them my stay was great but they Ruined it with how very very angry rude they were! Read above comment I put it in the wrong part, I like everything but the staff
Tayor (8/5): Wish our stay was longer. We'll be back! - Staff were great. Everyone was so nice and helpful. Seemed like such a fun environment to work. Wish my stay was longer. Wish there was room service.

Elissa (2/5): I was charged twice, do not book through booking.com - I was double charged I was charged twice
Navigator684727 (2/5): Great Hotel - Convenient and safe parking, a clean facility, great breakfast, and friendly staff. This is a GREAT hotel!!

Jeanne (10/5): -
Joline (8/5): - When front desk realized we needed parking, they could have told us we needed the room key to get out of the parking garage. Instead we had to ask another guest to help us get back onto retrieve the key we turned in and then back down again.
Edward (5/5): Decent. but I wouldn't pick this place if I had to return. - The location was excellent. A decent little walk to U Chicago campus, and it was a pretty safe for those unfamiliar with the cities. The hot breakfast was almost as bad as if it were to have come out of the microwave. If you're faced with a choice, don't pay for it and get breakfast elsewhere. The bathroom smelled pretty bad too as if there was back-ventilation from the drains.
Caleb (10/5): -
Jordan (10/5): -
Leslie (10/5): -
Randi (2/5): Uncomfortable and creepy. - The bed was comfortable. When I arrived the room was in disarray and TV was in the middle of a movie like the room was in use. I called the desk and they said the room had just been checked and they leave it that way. The pull out couch was have open and cabinets and drawers open. TV on. It truly seemed in use. The front desk did not give us another room and it was creepy.
Gregg (9/5): -
Michael (7/5): - Comfortable room, nice bed. Good space, pretty nice TV. Breakfast was good and complimentary. Window shade in the room could not be raised. This was pointed out to the front desk but was not repaired. The room was a bit pricey. The fitness gym is cramped and somewhat limited.
Dena (5/5): The room itself was very spacious and accommodating. The receptionist was very polite . - The front deck was very accommodating. We asked to move rooms because our room smelled musty. It was gross!! The front desk gave us a new room without any problem. That our first room smelled like mold, musty ,it was just gross. The room they moved us to had a view of construction. So we were woke up early. The parking garage was a complete mess to understand. There definitely needs to be better directions on the doors in the garage.
Julia (10/5): - The staff are great and the room was everything I needed - clean, comfortable, and quiet. Both times I’ve stayed at this hotel, I’ve had a good experience. Great location, too!
Raul (7/5): agradable - .me gusto el servicio y las instalaciones Mi problema fue con el apartcamiento porque solicite pagarlo pero no pude aparcarme en el mismo hotel, me fue necesario pagar en el estacionamiento fuera del hotel, esto me provoco que recibiera una multa porque segun ellos no habia hecho el pago, despues hice la aclaracion pero me causo un problema extra que pude haber evitado si ustedes me hubieran dado el servicio
Kathleen (10/5): -
Henry (9/5): Stay For Christmas ⛄ - I like the security where you have to use your key card to get on the elevator and All Access exits and doors. I didn't' like the glass door to the bathroom, my room didn't come with a microwave. But you had access to a microwave in the lobby. I would prefer a regular opening and closing door. And I like a tub with a shower head. I don't like glass or anything when I'm in the shower. BUT it looks fancy.
Troy (9/5): -
Nia (10/5): -
Lea (10/5): - Its location and that the parking was attached and covered. The staff were so nice and the breakfast was perfect.
Elijah (9/5): -
Rollins (7/5): - Room have no microwave
Sharon (9/5): Friends uniting - Room was ready upon check in Location of room. Response of staff when extra towels were requested. Easy parking. Location of hotel. Coffee station Closest to restaurants No microwave in room. Old tub and no walk in shower.
Laura (9/5): Staff very friendly not rude place was clean and the security was excellent - Close to the hospital There was nothing that I didn’t like
Luanne (9/5): - Good location and room size, friendly staff. We had to request clean towels and garbage pick up after second night, despite flyer from hotel saying there would be an express cleaning by that time. Once we requested the express clean at the front desk after the third night, we had a thorough cleaning, so all was well.
Quadaysha (5/5): - I didn’t like the fact that Hyatt let someone legally use my credit card to make a purchase
Crystal (5/5): Dirty Bathroom nasty - Front desk staff was nice. The bathroom had a red stain on the toilet when we went into bathroom had to call front desk when they came to clean it up it was old blood . Bed was very uncomfortable so we're pillows. Room had a sewer smell
Lisa (9/5): - Staff was very friendly, hotel and room was clean, beds were comfortable and shopping close by
McClinton (10/5): -
propaneKauai (8/5): Definitely improved - The Hyatt Place is practically the only game in town for visiting the University of Chicago and the bustling 53rd Street area. We have stayed here many times and had good but lackluster experiences. This time things were definitely improved. The staff was very friendly, helpful and efficient, and honored our Hilton Honor Perks - high floor, daily bottled watered, late checkout - with no problem. The breakfasts, which had been horrid, were quite good. (Think real bacon, not turkey sausage patties.) The rooms were nice and clean, parking was easy, and it was a very pleasant stay overall. The Obama library will likely bring more hotel competition to the area so it is good to see the Hyatt Place stepping up its game.
Tijuana (8/5): -
Charisse (8/5): Nice comfortable stay - Location and pleasant staff No microwave no free breakfast
Mealnee (8/5): Good - Location The toilet run load all nigh
Ashley (10/5): -
Miramontes (10/5): - Beautiful place in a beautiful area
Jacqueline (10/5): -
Gwendolyn (10/5): -
Richard (5/5): - Location was good. Bathroom was for wheel chair person. Had to hold the shower wand thru whole shower. The wand was at waist high. Bed was very low to ground.
beatrix (8/5): -
ems_jls (8/5): Good location, good breakfast - Very good location if you are doing things in the Hyde Park location. Never did figure out where the hotel underground parking was but there's a surface lot across the street for about the same cost. And there's a cookie place right across the street. Room and bathroom were fine. Heating system a little overreactive. Large window onto S Harper gives a good view of the rain and wind outside 🙂 Breakfast is $11 and there's a lot of variety including waffle makers, fresh fruit, breakfast potatoes, various hot items, etc.
Luca (10/5): - Very good experience overall!
renal338 (10/5): University of Chicago Medical Conference Visit - Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Nice breakfast but is not included for discounted rooms (Boo! was there for a medical conference would have been nice regardless of my room rate) air was blowing in hallways and hall carpets need to be replaced, but room was clean and comfortable with several places to eat/visit near the hotel. It is outside of downtown so if going there, you will need transportation. Overall experience was good
Jones (8/5): Wonderful - The front desk clerks by the name of Kim and Cornell were wonderful and very helpful with my check in and stay.

X5069XXthomasr (10/5): Great time at the Hyatt place Chicago - Like I said everything was great. If you go there you will be treated like family Keep up the great work you are doing 👍 👏 💪
Andi Iswandi (9/5): -
Timothy (10/5): A perfect play to stay ahead of the Chicago Marathon! - I had an incredible stay at this hotel! I ran the Chicago Marathon and the hotel was the perfect location to relax before the race and explore Hyde Park. On race morning, I took the first Metra Electric and literally exited on the start line at Van Buren Street. I would book this hotel again in a heartbeat. The staff was extremely welcoming and accommodating. I liked everything!
Adriann (7/5): Great location - The location was great. Easy walk to good food, Lake Michigan, and the university. The room was very clean and the staff was helpful. The beds were not very comfortable, a bit hard. Also, no one informed us that we would need our key card to get out of the parking lot so that caused a minor headache that could have been remedied in advance.
Marcos (7/5): Decent stay. - The staff was really nice, helped us get parking, really easy to check in, and property was decent Our room had a giant stain on the carpet
Claudia (10/5): -
Mehmet Tevfik (7/5): -
Brian (10/5): - The hotel is located in the historical Hyde Park neighborhood and with plenty of places to visit.
Stephen (8/5): - Very secure hotel (key card needed to access lobby or move the elevators in any direction.) Staff very courteous and professional. Our room frig didn't work, but not a big deal.
NINGQUN (10/5): - There are many restaurants near the hotel, making dining very convenient. If you have business at the University of Chicago, this hotel is undoubtedly the first choice. It is 1 mile away from the bookstore of the University of Chicago. The parking is self-park, at $40 per day, and you can enter and exit at any time. Considering the safety of the surrounding area and the parking fee, this price is undoubtedly very good.
Hope (10/5): - Great hotel, great friendly staff
Nikhil (10/5): - Great stay
juanjuan (9/5): -
SeaLaurel (10/5): Fabulous hotel. - I was here for 10 days for medical travel, to support a family member. The Staff here is fabulous. Savionne, Alex, Kim, Cordell, Rashaun, Martha, and the many whose names I didn’t learn. They were so nice and helpful, it was amazing. Breakfast was a buffet, $11 per person, delicious with healthy options. The coffee is full-bodied, not weak, wimpy, or bitter. Great-tasting coffee and teas are available at breakfast time. Later in the day, Alex made fab espressos. Evenings, Savionne made delicious drinks. The room was clean and quiet. The AC will blow you away. Location is great. Many restaurants are within walking distance., but shopping is limited. I walked the 1,5 miles to the UChicago Hospital during daylight hours, in good weather. It’s several blocks to a UGo bus stop. I have requested that the Lyft and Uber apps direct transportation to the hotel entrance on the NW side of the hotel; their apps had the hotel as being on the SE side of the building.. Needs: 1. Laundry Facilities: The A.I. lied, and there’s no near laundromat. Found a great wash and fold service called “Rinse;” the fast option is 24 hours. 2. Feasible parking: Parking is about $40/night here and also at UChicago Medicine, making a rental car a bad option for medical travel. 3. Feasible Cost during student events. UChicago is a rich kid school that commences in September. With taxes, the hotel is an astronomic 400 bucks a night Hyatt Place: thank you for your wonderful staff and clean facilities..
Chequrita (10/5): - I love the staff! Courtesy, kind, and very professional
David (8/5): - The room was clean but loud from street noise.
