Had lovely time here. Staff were very attentive and Cheryl the concierge took the time to greet us every day and see how we were enjoying the city and if we needed any recommendations. She even organized some champagne for our room when she heard it was our anniversary!

I travel to Chicago multiple times a year, and have hotel favorites for different seasons. The Waldorf Astoria is now our favorite hotel in the city-- across seasons. By chance, my wife and I encountered the hotel manager in the elevator. He was courteous, attentive, thoughtful and made sure that any inquiries were answered and all needs met. The spa was outstanding and the staff was fantastic. The hotel is beautiful and the room was beautiful. They were firing on all cylinders. We look forward to our next stay.
