Review of Hyatt Centric Chicago Magnificent Mile 4*

I have been a fan of Hyatt hotels for a while, and generally stay in a Hyatt wherever I go, so while looking for a hotel in Chicago, I really only considered the Hyatt hotels. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Chicago and this hotel. The executive suites are very large and spacious, plenty of room for two couples to spread out and not be cramped. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Denise at the concierge desk helped me with several special requests for our room, and the doormen consistently gave us perfect recommendations for all of our partying, dining, and shopping needs. I've seen several reviews from people that have complained about the parking fees. Just do a little research. I knew within the first 5 minutes of researching this hotel that parking was $63/night, so I chose not to rent a car, which is the way to go. With Uber, taxis, and limos all over this area, there is absolutely no reason to have a car here. If you absolutely must have a car here, you can park it in the hospital lot immediately across the street for $20. Anyone that pays $63/night to park at this hotel just isn't very smart. The pool is nothing to get excited about. It is a little bit larger than a ping pong table. No, I'm not talking about the hot tub. The hot tub is a little bit larger than my kitchen sink. The pictures online look like some kind of luxurious spa. Believe me, it is not. Overall, I was very impressed, as were the others in my group. There was nothing that we needed or desired that couldn't be delivered. As a person that likes to try new things, we will probably stay at the Park Place Hyatt next time we visit Chicago, not because there was anything unsatisfactory with the Mag Mile location, just so we can experience other places.
