“Loop's romantic gray”

An easy stroll from the Loop and the big malls with a Starbucks downstairs and an always-ready valet, Kimpton Gray Hotel by IHG is a very clean better-than-expected stay: a big room, nice atmosphere, well-received check-in, amazing staff and a soaking tub that's a great romantic touch — one guest switched loyalty from the Sheraton. A dissent though: interior facilities felt old, the pillow choice ran too-low or too-high, and desk service needed repeated reminder calls for deliveries.
