    We stayed at this hotel for 5 nights. We paid extra for a lake facing room. Our room was near the elevator and it was LOUD from 5am in the morning until 2am in the morning. It felt like the walls were made of paper and we were on every single elevator ride. The location by the lake is lovely, but because of the room it was not a restful place for us to stay. The breakfast is ridiculously expensive for a mediocre meal. Finally the wifi was terrible. Even when you paid daily per person for wifi, you basically could only use it in your room. Not in the lobby or any other place on the property.

    Paid extra for lake view - the view was great. Our room was 2 from the elevators so we heard the elevator go up & down all night making it difficult to sleep.

    Arthur the Manager and Brandon were Excellent they made sure we got a great room with a great view of the wheel and Macy pier and away from the lifts. They were very helpful. Rooms were spacious and very clean free am coffee in the lobby was nice and free coffee and kettle to the rooms upon request. Just under the tunnel to the navy pier and the Michigan lake/beach so close even to the city Maccas and 711 around the corner buses close by to go to the large museum one stop for $2.25 great value Nothing all great

    Excellent venue for getting to the McCormick conference centre given that I had access to a courtesy bus. I had a lake view and was a little concerned I might be disturbed by noise from the Lakeshore drive that passes between the hotel and the lake, but not at all. The room had air con which although effective was quite noisy. Thankfully the room wasn't so warm that I needed air con overnight - not sure what it might be like in the summer months.. First time I have been to a 4 star hotel in the US not to find a coffee machine in the room, which was a bit disappointing. The hotel provided coffee in the lobby in the mornings only.

    The location was excellent and convenient for exploring Chicago. Some staff members were courteous and attempted to assist when concerns were raised. Unfortunately, our stay did not meet expectations. The room we were assigned had issues that made us uncomfortable staying at the property. We requested assistance, but a satisfactory resolution could not be reached. As a result, we chose to leave and find alternative accommodations. The experience caused significant disruption to our plans and required us to spend several hours searching downtown Chicago for another hotel while managing our luggage.

    Hotel has great views of the lake and city. Breakfast was delicious. However, my TV did not even turn on when I arrived. The rooms felt like they were a bit dated. As in many of the items in the room I was in looked like they were broken or paint was chipping and there was quick fixes to cover these areas.

    Close to all the attractions we booked, soft beds, warm showers Pool was dirty, our booking reservation stated free breakfast but it did not specify that it was for two people only (we are a family of 3) No charging ports available for those sleeping in the middle of the room, only the outside sections of the beds so my wife had to drape her charger across the bed

    I politely asked if it would be possible to have a lake view, even if it was only for one of my rooms. He immediately responded that I would have to pay an additional $50. I then mentioned that I stay at this hotel frequently, hoping there might be some flexibility, but he was dismissive and came across as quite rude. The interaction left me feeling unwelcome and was not the level of customer service I have come to expect from a hotel where I regularly stay.

    There was a private wedding event during the day of my reservation. The hotel reserved all but one the elevators just for the private event. I was waiting for 30-40 minutes after checking in as only 1 elevator was lifting people to their floors and the rest were solely for wedding guests going to the 6th floor. There was huge lines/crowds of people waiting to go up to their rooms and it was taking forever. Upon getting inpatient I went to the front desk to see if they can cancel my reservation as a whole. They apologized for the inconvenience and said they would cancel fee free. Weeks later I look at my credit card statement and it shows that I am still charged for a room that I never made it to. I called the hotel and they transferred me to accounting but no one answered so I left a call back voicemail giving them a breakdown of everything that happened. I still have not received a call back and am still charged around $331 for a place I didn’t not even stay. This is very disappointing and frustrating experience.

    Booked two queens but they were small full beds. Great view of navy pier fireworks (wed and sat during summer). Easy walk over to navy pier, beach and walking path along the lake. No cell phone reception in the lobby or our room. Without cell phone service it was frustrating to the internet. Had to go back and forth to the lobby’s free WiFi several times to get situated on our phones and computers. Park at the parking garage next door(Axis) (half the price) if you don’t need to come and go with your car.

    Stayed at Wade Hotel recently and overall really enjoyed the experience. The location is amazing - very accessible and within a short, safe walk to downtown and most of the main attractions. Everything was about a 10–15 minute walk max, which made getting around super convenient. The room itself had a stunning lake view that I absolutely loved. Looking out at it throughout the day was such a highlight - it honestly looked like a painting, especially during sunrise and sunset. The room was clean, housekeeping came daily, and the bed was incredibly comfortable with great pillows and towels. The only thing I found a bit odd was the bathroom door setup. It’s a sliding door that doesn’t fully close, so there’s a noticeable gap you can see through. Since I was sharing the room with family, it was a little inconvenient and definitely lacking some privacy. I think this could be especially uncomfortable if you’re sharing with coworkers or someone you don’t know very well. Other than that, everything else was really solid and we genuinely enjoyed our stay.

    Lovely hotel, very modern and clean. Had fantastic views from the top floor. We were on floor 28 and the skyline was great. Bed very comfortable and it was expected from a 4* hotel. Chicago is a business city, reminded me of a bar man set as its high rised buildings and slightly darker from the shadows of these buildings. Locally there was a few cafes and coffee shops for easy reach for breakfast

    The location of the property was central to tours and attractions downtown. The costs of parking my vehicle was the equivalent to an additional night’s stay. Also, I booked online and reserved a king bed but the rooms each had double beds. Was told by the staff that “you booked online, there’s nothing we can do.” However, no one ever answered the phone when I called the hotel directly.

    Loved the view of the lake and the close walk to the Navy Pier. Liked the rooms that were clean and comfy with plenty of room. Liked the unique setup of the room. Loved the shower and water pressure was amazing! No information about any of the hotel services, restaurant information, and any local information in the room. With check in desk around the corner, you have little to no contact with front desk once you check in. To ask for local recommendations about attractions or restaurants. THE REAL PROBLEM was the very poor reception we had with our phones with no internet access once in hotel room unless you accessed their WIFI. Fortunately I was a Marriott Bonvour member and was able to get WiFi use once I activated it. If you aren’t a member good luck getting reception for your cellphone once in your room. We were never able to get or make phone calls from our cellphones once in our room. We have Verizon service so not sure who is to blame, just making a point about our experience. Also, it is a nice walk to get to Michigan avenue from hotel so bring comfy shoes or use Uber or a Taxi. You definitely will get your steps in. One piece of advice, use the public parking garages around the block from hotel. Plenty to choose from with rates at a Much much cheaper than the $86 bucks a night at hotel.

    The location of the property was excellent. The beach was really nothing to write home about. The food was mediocre at best. None of the amenities outside of the pool were opened. Had to switch rooms unexpectedly later in the evening halfway through my trip and one of my items was lost. Come to find out the housekeeping staff had thrown away my hand brace as it was in the old room on the floor found in the trash bag covered in food. I was glad to get it back but disappointed that you thought it was garbage as it was a new hand brace. If I had to choose I wouldn't stay there again.

    The view to the lake For this place to be 8.2 stars this isn’t luxury…..when you walk in he’s the bar and spacious area to look out at the water. But as soon as we got in the room I just was suprised I paid almost $500 with my non refundable deposit I’ve stayed at way way way better and much nicer hotels for the same amount. The black tile in the shower room was mildew and white obviously someone isn’t cleaning CORRECTLY. The mattress was dirty not new decent nice or clean DIRTY the carpet you could feel coming up in may places there was water damage I assume from previous people on some of the wooden furniture. Just ridiculous for their price point oh also when I saw the pool ya no just stay in a holiday inn or regular Marriot ❤️

    Valet service when we arrived was a little unpleasant. My Husband didnt realize he left his phone in the car, we went down to speak to valet guy that night. Valet attendant was the only guy, so he was in a rush, but we ended up not retrieving my husbands phone from the car since Attendant was clearly distressed. Scanning the QR code to figure out time for breakfast downstairs (I did not end up finding it)I got confused as I couldnt rememberif front desk said breakfast was complimentary or not. I also tried to check out "Current" online for reserving (without the app). Process was super confusing so I ended up deciding to order in room dining.

The beds were dirty and had hair ( looked like pubes?) Second the fridge didn't work properly so things I had in the fridge weren't cold for example the milk for my daughter spoiled quick!! 3rd the pool was extremely dirty ..their was dead bugs floating around and the floor was dirty and slimey!!

    It felt that after the acquisition, this property has really fell off the wagon. The staff was nonexistent, when I was trying to check out there was nobody at the front desk. Upon checking in experience was also disorganized. One night I tried to call room service, then tried to call the front desk, and then the concierge. I rang multiple times and nobody picked up. Don’t know if they had all abandoned their stations at the same time or what was going on, but it was really bizarre. No one picked up. What if we had an emergency? Not an experience I would expect from a hotel at this price point. The room did not have a mini bar, no coffee maker, no slippers, no robe. Really bare bones. The hotel did not provide free Wi-Fi, which in this day and age is a given. The television did not even have smart TV capability, it did not connect with Netflix or anything like that — it all just felt outdated, and as if no one cares. It felt more like a cheap motel than a fine establishment.

    We had a nice view of Lake Michigan and Navy Pier. However, our check in was at 4 PM and we did not get into our room until 6 PM. We arrived shortly before 5 PM to check in. We waited in line for 20 minutes just to check in. When we finally got to the desk, we were informed that our room was not ready. There were 10 people ahead of us who also did not have a room and they could not tell us a time as to when our room would be ready. We waited in the lobby for probably 30 minutes, which was not terrible considering they couldn’t give us a timeframe. The concierge was rude about the situation and not accommodating. The least they could have done was comped us for the time we waited. Very busy hotel. Lobby always full of people. Our room was fine, average.

    The phone signal and WiFi in the room were extremely poor, making it difficult to stay connected. The cable service in the room also did not work at all. Additionally, I was unable to access the Skydeck because it was down for maintenance, which was one of the amenities I was looking forward to. Parking was also unexpectedly expensive at $100 per night, which was not clearly communicated beforehand. On top of that, I was informed that WiFi would be complimentary as a Marriott member, yet I was still charged $10 per night. What was most frustrating, however, was the lack of support from the staff. Despite raising these concerns, there was little to no effort made to resolve the issues or offer any form of accommodation. Given the number of inconveniences and the lack of resolution during my stay, I would appreciate a review of these charges and appropriate compensation.

    We arrived at 11pm because before that we went to dinner and another activity. When we got there the person behind the desk told us that the room with a king bed was given away to someone else, mind you I had paid ahead on the app. Then he proceeded to say he can give us another room for the same price with 2 twin beds. What can we do? We were already there so we took it. I asked him why wasn’t I notified or called before they gave away my room, he said if you would have got here earlier you would have got it. Like wth!? I had already paid for it!!! They should have called to verify if I wasn’t coming in anymore so they can give it away to someone else. Then I asked if I would get a discount or something since they messed up and he said no. Then he proceeded to give us a free breakfast voucher. We go up to our room, and there was food that someone ordered before it I don’t know what happened but food was there already!! Smh! Also the valet parking was $86 dollars!!!!!!! That’s insane, we are staying at this hotel so we should have got it validated well no! Then the next morning we go downstairs to eat breakfast and everything was horrible, eggs were burned along with potatoes and the waffles were hard as a

    The cleanliness was a major issue, the rooms were dirty and not well-maintained. To make things worse, there was no hot water for over a day. There was also no internet throughout my stay, and cellular service upstairs was extremely poor, especially with Verizon, making it difficult to make calls or stay connected. Additionally, basic amenities were missing. There was no complimentary water, and essentials like soap and shampoo were not provided, which is unacceptable for a hotel. Overall, it was a very bad experience, and I would not recommend staying here.

    What followed was a series of poor “solutions” and ongoing issues: an upgrade that didn’t accommodate our group, lack of basic amenities (they claimed to have no pillows), repeated calls just to receive towels, and advertised bar offerings that weren’t even available but advertised all across the hotel. The most alarming moment came when a glass shelf fell off the wall overnight, thankfully no one was hurt, but it could have been dangerous. Between the disorganized service, lack of accountability, and overall experience, this felt far below standard. I would not stay here again or recommend it.

    When I arrived to the hotel on 3/13/2026, I was told I didn’t have a reservation. Waited 20 minutes or so for the receptionist to come back and say “they got it figured out”. Extremely annoying. They blamed Expedia, however if you have an agreement with a third party, communication is key. I would like to add that it is not worth pre-paying for the breakfast. You are only allowed two things off of the menu which is a total rip off for the amount paid. Lastly, the hotel needs an upgrade. One of the elevators there did not close properly, the furniture was worn out and the bed and pillows were not comfortable. The only nice thing about the hotel was the view. Period.

    My stay at The Wade overall was pretty good. I booked here because it has a pool, and I thought I would have a nice view (city view). The view wasn’t available, I was on the 27th floor and only had a view of the roof of other buildings, and other apartments. I kept the window covered for the most part. The pool was unkept in my opinion, I didn’t feel comfortable with the dirt ring on the white tile that surrounded the pool, and the water looked and felt pretty grimy, I felt it needed to be serviced. Though my main attractions to this location were not fulfilled it was very quiet on my floor, the cleaning crew were very polite and generous, and the valet was very friendly and always gave me great service despite it being very busy over the course of my stay.

    We had a really good stay. The hotel is in a great location. We got a lakeview room, and it was right in front of the lake by Navy Pier. The view was beautiful. We had a king-size bed, and it was very comfortable. Check-in and check-out were very quick and easy. That made everything smooth from start to finish. The bathroom was clean and nice. The food and drinks were also very good. The only downside was that our room was close to the elevator, so it was a little noisy. You could hear it going up and down. There were also people smoking weed, and the smell would come in sometimes, which we did not like. But overall, it was a good stay. It was very close to Navy Pier, which was perfect since most of our plans were there.

    That said, I did have a few frustrating issues. Making a room change was difficult, and although Expedia told me the change had been confirmed, the hotel had no record of it when I arrived, which was very disappointing. There was also no microwave in the room. I wasn’t sure if this was something that needed to be requested, but when I called, I was directed to use the microwave in the lobby, which I didn’t love. I generally expect a microwave in the room. My biggest issue was the bed. The mattress moved around on the bed frame over time even though i was simply just laying on it or sitting which was uncomfortable and made sleeping difficult as i kept having to push the mattress back in to place. Overall, the hotel has a great look, location, and price, but there are some comfort and communication issues that could definitely be improved.

    The room was fine but the hot water was not working. The hotel said that the water issue had been addressed but was taking time because of the demand. The hot water did not work at all, and the hotel management agreed to provide a $100 refund which would be issued in 5-7 days.

    Room was very nice and clean, beds and pillows super comfy, amenities were great also. Gym was nice and had bottles of water and everything we needed to work out. Only bad thing was no hot water to shower….lots of people were complaining about it so it wasn’t just our room. Kind of a bummer. Otherwise really nice stay!

    Prepaid breakfast is a scam. $25 per day per person but you’re given a voucher (if check in even remembers to do that, which they didn’t for us) limited to a subset of the regular menu of about 8 items (each which retails about $15), from which you choose one and one drink - eg you get a juice but not coffee; and a yogurt but no eggs. The service is also incredibly slow despite being empty most days. Had to wipe down our own table even though there were only two other guests there. On busy days expect to wait in line quite a while to get a seat. Overall the prepaid meal is absolutely not worth it. This ‘bait and switch’ with the breakfast alone made the hotel stay very unsatisfactory.

    We had a difficult time with the check in process as I had filled a form out for my card to be charged before our arrival. I gave a different card for the incidental charges when we arrive and I was charged a second time for our entire stay. The hotel did offer us room service credit and the limited breakfast each day we were there to make up for the inconvenience. The breakfast was not good and had hair in it one morning. The food was not the best. We had a room overlooking the lake and that was nice. Housekeeping was great some days and not on other days. The hotel is located in a good area. They did credit my card back but it took several days to be receive that and our trip was almost over. We would stay somewhere else next time we are in Chicago.

    The hotel itself is very nice. The staff is polite and efficient, the bar and cafe are nice; we didn’t even mind the 2 hour delay to our room. The ISSUE was that we were at no point notified that the hotel allows dogs in the rooms. My husband and myself are very allergic, so after a long day of sight seeing we were not excited to deal with some pretty severe allergies. Ruined our 2nd day of the trip as we were roaming Chicago until 3 am looking for allergy medications. So, nice place and great views (BEAUTIFUL views of the lake and navy Pier but be warned, you could be spending your $200+ stay outside of the hotel in the wee hours because no one thought to notify you of conditions like this.

    The wade was a very good hotel until the music from the 33rd floor was booming until after midnight. I was on the 32nd floor right below the hall. I called and they asked if I wanted to switch rooms but who wants to pack up an entire room at 10:30pm to move. I think they need to inform guests that are below the hall of these events before they put them in the room or don’t put guests in the rooms when you have an event scheduled. Other than that the hotel is very nice and the breakfast was excellent. The staff is very friendly and helpful I will stay again just on a lower floor.

    Everything was great, room was clean, staff was kind, i had two personal issues with the hotel, which is the parking, i feel like if im a resident at you guys hotel parking/valet should come with the room, and the rooms doesn't come with microwaves, although they have one in they snack store you can use, but who want to go downstairs to warm up they food up about time you make it back up its cold, but overall it was nice, thanks Wade team for the great stay!!

    As other reviews remark, a bit tired in furnishings. But staff were all very friendly and helpful. We originally had a noisy room by the elevator, but they moved us immediately when we complained. Our room was missing a microwave, but they brought one when we asked and sent someone to replace the hall light. Cleaners were terrific. Nice neighborhood with great coffee at Cupitol around the corner.

    I loved staying at this hotel. We parked the car & walked the whole weekend. The man who helped bring our luggage to our room was very kind & did a great job, his name is Dakota. He also was there every day if we had any questions. We had a sunrise view of the Lake from our 14th floor window. We did have a room next to the elevators & that was extremely loud. We had no washcloths in the room. When I called down to get 4, I only was given 2. We were charged a $200 fee for incidentals the day we got there which made us very upset. They did take the charge off when we checked out. Dakota was there to help us put our luggage in our car the day we left. Thanks Dakota for your hard work & kindness.

We were in a bit of a predicament due to the pool at another hotel being shut down. This hotels pool was so nice. We were in it every day. 8 ft. deep and provided exercise for me an let my kids get out some energy. Loved every bit of my stay.

    If you’re simply looking for a place to crash for the night, this hotel gets the job done. The rooms are basic and clean, but don’t expect many extras. There’s no control over the HVAC in the room, the beds are on the smaller side, and there isn’t a dedicated sitting area. Service is adequate, though not especially warm—bar staff, for example, wouldn’t bring drinks out to the patio. Overall, it’s a very average stay: nothing terrible, but nothing particularly memorable either. It works best if your priority is convenience rather than comfort or amenities.

    Staff were all very helpful and friendly, attentive to our needs. Rooms were spacious and clean, our lake view was amazing. Well equipped exercise room, pool with 7 ft deep end. Bar and small restaurant available as well. Beds were comfortable, room was a little dated but still nice. Elevators were annoying slow at times. They even had a luggage hold service which was great as our flight was in the afternoon. The lake front beach and walk way were about a 10 minute walk under the expressway, and Navy Pier was about 15 minutes away. Dog friendly, and for smokers, a nice area outside with rocking chairs looking out towards the lake (where you can also watch the fireworks at Navy Pier.

    The property was in a great location! Most of the staff was very friendly and helpful! Rooms felt a bit outdated, but still comfortable. However, my city view was a building view blocking the city view. I would not consider this a city view. Also, I had to call to ask for housekeeping services multiple times during the day, in order to get it done. However, my main complaint is the amount of towels that they would leave on a daily basis. I paid to have 4 people in the room, but I could only have 2-3 bath towels and only 2 scrub towels due to shortage. I am paying for these services for 4 people, but was not allowed to have 1 towel per person?

    Very kind valet staff, even when only unloading and choosing to self park. They helped take our things out of the car and bring them to our room. The room had a spectacular view of Lake Michigan. We were able to watch the Wednesday night fireworks from our room! There was a great walkway right on the lake across from our room. It was a great location to the riverwalk and many restaurants. The room was quite small, and there was not a microwave and there was a very small fridge with no freezer space. We were surprised to learn that our room shared a wall with the elevators, so roughly every 30s-1min there was loud whooshing and clanging noises, all day and all night. The bathroom was very small and the bathtub/insert was dingy due to age and wear. The hotel had signs up saying they were in the midst of remodeling various bathrooms. Be that as it may, the floor tile was cracked and missing strips of grout. The sink was very small and did not drain well due to it’s shallow square bowl. It was pretty worn as well. The towels were not the fluffy fresh kind you hope to find at hotels. They were a little rough and did not dry well. There was nearly no options for purchasing onsite other than a fancy bar/restaurant area, and a small and not varied snack room. They do not offer breakfast. There was a room service dept, but we did not purchase anything. There is no coffee really available. The gym was very nice and had a lot of different equipment. There is a pool as well. GREAT VIEWS!
