What a great place to stay! The rooms are extremely clean. We had a suite which included a kitchen with a fridge, sink and microwave. It was called the sun room...we would stay there again if we went back to Chicago! It was a 3 minute walk to the bus stop to get downtown and only cost $*per ride. about 1/4 of a cab ride and just as convienient. Everyone at the hotel was extremely friendly and helpful!!!!

We celebrated our 49th anniversary by spending three nights at the Majestic as we explored Wrigley Field and Chicago. When the staff discovered our anniversary date thet sent us a bottle of wine and a note of congratulations and support for the Cubs. The room was cleean clean clean and the daily care personable and gracious. I wouldn't stay anywhere else on the North Side. Continental breakfast featured fresh items and the afternoon (4 pm) cookies and coffee gave us an afternoon lift. we loved it!!!!

Read the other reviews and got exactly what I expected. This is a great "old" hotel within walking distance of Wrigley Field. Wife is a huge "Cubbies" fan and she loved the location. The spotless room is small by today?s standards, and the hotel is an older building with great charm. It was however, a great spot for our two-night stay. Staff is friendly and very helpful with ticket and meal information. Breakfast (bagels/muffins) was perfect for a day of sight seeing as we only wanted something light before stopping in for some deep-dish pizza. Easy rail/bus commute from O'Hare with a short walk. We were not looking for a romantic getaway, and needed a good room as a base for operations. It was very quiet a night, and the window unit cooled the room well. You will need to splurge for a larger room to lounge. The old fashioned elevator was amusing, but the stairs are faster. The building had it's own smell. Not a bad odor at all, but you knew you were not in a carbon copy chain hotel. I am a fan of old buildings with history and this one feels like it has plenty. If you are going to Chicago and want to feel like a local stay here and walk to Wrigley and smell the flowers along the way. If you need to shop downtown and be in the middle of it all, it is not for you. Be advised it is a very gay friendly area and if that is going to freak you out, then do not say you have not been told. I will stay here again and fully expect to enjoy it again. Ladies, my wife thought the hotel was great as well and enjoyed it. Hope this helps.

The reason we picked this hotel is because we were going to a Cub game at Wrigley Field. This hotel was within walking distance; it was very clean (especially the bathroom), charming cozy and the hotel staff could not have been better (very, very accomodating). We stayed in a double queen suite which included a sofa bed, microwave and refrigerator. This hotel offers a continental type breakfast in the a.m. which was another plus for us. The hotel location (Addison & Lake Shore Drive) is excellent if you plan on spending time in downtown Chicago, the museums, Wrigley Field, etc. If I had it to do over, I would pick The Majestic again. And, if you have a car, the parking garage is practically next to the hotel itself. I have read other reviews on this hotel and some people have said the parking garage is a 20 minute walk from the hotel. I found out from the hotel staff that if your vehicle is over 6ft in height you must park in the garage that is further away; otherwise, you can park right next door. I'd like to go back to Chicago again (for more Cubs games) and will stay here.
