Overview
Located in the heart of Chicago on historic State Street, the Hotel Burnham projects an atmosphere of historical and whimsy devoted to the hotels theme of romance. Completed in 1895, as the Reliance Building, it was one of the first steel framed skyscrapers in the world. Dark finished mahogany wood, rich colored leathers and silk drapery unite to recreate the men's club atmosphere that once occupied this space. Tumbled stone flooring in the entry lobby compliment the restored stone floor used in the original lobby. Swans mated for life swim in the corridor carpet design of our guestroom floors. Cherubs adorn the guestroom bedding adding to the romance theme. Expansive windows feature incredible views of downtown Chicago are draped in handsome blue velvet and tie back panels with samplings of Mozart's symphonies.

Fun Stay
 | | Overall rating: |  | Value rating : | |
Nicely situated in a very busy part of Chicago-so beware of noisy streets. Beautifully restored historical building right across from the historic Marshal Field's original store. 15 min walk to Michigan ave shops, but 3 blocks away from Millennium park and art museum. Lovely place overall.

Hotel Burnham
| | Overall rating: |  | Value rating : | |
I was born and raised in Chicago, but never spent a night in a downtown hotel. This was my first experience and I was not disappointed. I had just finished reading the book "The Devil in the White City" which was about the Chicago 1893 Exposition that Burnham helped to plan and organize. So to stay in a hotel that he designed in the 1890's was great! The staff was friendly. It is located on State Street so it was close to many attractions, stores and restaurants. We were on the 7th floor, but could hear city traffic and noises, but could not hear people in other rooms. I would recommend it and the price through Perfect Escapes was great!

We stayed one night in this hotel but would stay again for an extended time. Its location near shopping and theater can't be beat. The service was excellent, all staff very helpful and friendly.

Valet Parking
| | Overall rating: |  | Value rating : | |
The valet parking was very expensive and I had to wait almost 2 hours to get my car. This was the worst part of my stay.
