Great Stay
I stayed at the Arlo with a group of friends for a girls trip. This hotel is the perfect location for a first time to Chicago. The neighborhood is very walkable, close to grant park, and close to many restaurants.

Excellent All-Around
Very nice rooms, great view and excellent location, with superb, friendly staff. The downstairs restaurant was also quite good.
Only drawback of the property is a fairly limited lobby- not really much room available to wait for the rest of one's party to arrive.

Boujee for cheap
Everything was clean and had modern boujee vibes. Seemed very high class compared to a lot of other hotels for the price it was. Definitely would stay here again the staff was amazing and nothing bad about the place. Just overpriced food and snacks like anywhere else.

Perfect location right on Michigan Ave central to everything. Good sized room for a city hotel. Towels were soft and amenities nice. I couldn't get the temperature right with AC and comforter weight but otherwise everything was great.

Good stay!
I’m not used to big city life and the traffic and parking instructions were not clear. I spent more money on parking than needed due to unclear instructions and the room was not super cold as most other hotels. HOWEVER, it was a great location for our stay, got to be on a train, ride the water taxi, eat good food, and drink nearby. 4/5 because it was great to say the least

Great location
Great location, good service, and the rooms are clean and reasonably sized. Note that the $25 “urban fee” covers your WiFi, but contrary to the listing, you only get to use the daily Divvy bike credit one time. The code only works once, so you really don’t get much value from this “perk.” Otherwise, I have no complaints.

Okay.
Nice hotel.
Probably not suitable for families with small children.
Restaurant was crowded, staff unfriendly at both restaurant and hotel front desk.
Parking is discounted NOT included, and a bit of a walk.
Overall comfortable stay.
Nothing super special.
