Partner Reviews: The Ritz-Carlton Chicago, a Four Seasons Hotel
foursquareIDGreat Afternoon experience
The best way I can describe afternoon tea at the Ritz - Luxurious, relaxing, delicious. The staff was friendly, welcoming and attentive. The area is spacious and comfortable which allows people to privately enjoy their afternoon tea. The only minor complaint is that the water fountain statue near my table was a little noisy. I am looking forward to my next visit!
Wonderful!
I've stayed in this hotel several times when I visit Chicago - and it couldn't be a better location for shopping, dining, and nightlife! The staff is incredibly gracious and helpful.
Great Hotel!
The Ritz-Carlton completely lived up to my expectations of a true luxury hotel: lovely accommodations; great service (concierge remembered my name); great food & great location.
outstanding
The service makes the hotel outstanding. The people were so kind and helpful. The rooms are fabulous.
Luxurious !!!!
As a frequent traveller, I'm use to great hotels, but this is among the two or three greatest in the world for luxury and attentiveness. It is comparable to the Dorchester in London and the Crillon in Paris. A step up from the Plaza in New York. I find no thing to criticize and everything to compliment. I'll return very soon - and every time I'm in Chicago!!
